What Are You Currently Reading - 2021

i really liked it! murderbot is a great character, and i'm already planning on reading the rest of the series, ha ha. plot was a little weak, but since it's more character-oriented, it wasn't much of a problem for me. hope you enjoy it when you get around to it! :D


I love Glenn Rolfe's stories and this latest one is no exception. Well and truly hooked right from the first page


It appears to be a horror/mystery/thriller. I'm liking it."
I thought that one was pretty good.

A non-fiction book about lake monsters in northern Italy's lakes, written by Germanys leading fortean writer, Ulrich Magin.

Loving it! And to everyone who has already read it, there is a sequel expected next year. yeah!


Oooh that's a good one. I think it's the first of the Blue Rose trilogy?

Yup. Then there are a couple of off-shoots from the trilogy, Lost Boy Lost Girl, which I thought was terrific, and In the Night Room, which I liked, but less; it struck me as a not entirely successful foray into Jonathan Carroll territory.
The trilogy, though, is terrific.



It is quite interesting how often the winged creatures encountered are/were compared to the monster from the movie Jeepers Creepers.

Partially, these exactly the same winged cryptid encounters as in The Lake Michigan Mothman: High Strangeness in the Midwest, but then, Strickler and Tobias Wayland were co-investigators.

I'm loving it, especially the Scottish humour.
Currently working on
, loving it so far. It is a heavy one to carry around, so I’ve only been reading it at home. Makes for a slower read, but this is one I don’t mind savoring for as long as possible.



I think it is a magnificent book! I look forward to hearing what you think about it when you are finished!
