Schooled in Magic by Christopher G. Nuttall

[Kirsten]

Great advice found in a cozy mystery: "we should only be judged on two things: if we're kind, and if we read books"

[Art]

Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House

Almost done with it now and not a minute goes by that I don't wish it was fiction..

[Mary]

Obsidio by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff

[CD]

I've got 暗殺教室 1 Ansatsu Kyoushitsu 1 on the current reading shelf.

Flying octopus that appears nearly omnipotent in this graphic novel is the center of the story thus far.

Lots of fun and it may mean I have to read more of the series.

[Mary]

Clockwork Boys by T. Kingfisher

[RJ - Slayer of Trolls]

I finished A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin, loved it and gave it 5 stars. Amazing prose - so much said in so few words. Looking forward to the rest of the series and other works by Le Guin.

[Scott]

I finished Boy's Life. Fantastic book!

Now I'm reading The Chalk Man.

[Rafael]

I started to read A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess.

[MadProfessah]

Gonna start SIX WAKES by Murphy Lafferty as I work through the 2018 Hugo award best novel nominees.

[Paul]

I just finished “Six Wakes” and “Ancillary Mercy”. I’m almost done with “Consider Phlebas” and getting ready to start “Hyperion”.

Reading through The Lost Fleet by Jack Campbell (on book 2 - Courageous).

[Mary]

Mists of Everness by John C. Wright

[C. John]

Kirsten wrote: "I've been reading Cecilia by Fanny Burney and listening to Outlander by Diana Gabaldon"

I think I am getting tired. I read the author's name as Fanny Brice.

[Kirsten]

I've been reading The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah and listening to The Bungalow Mystery by Carolyn Keene (narrated by Laura Linney).

[Katrina]

Currently reading Version Control by Dexter Palmer

I’m almost done with Fid’s Crusade. Think of a slightly more socially conscious Lex Luthor.

Fid's Crusade

[Mary]

Dragon's Ring by Dave Freer

[Mary]

Dog and Dragon by Dave Freer

[MadProfessah]

Just finished Book 1 in Jodi Taylor’s humorous time-travel adventure novels (With romance overtones).

It’s pretty good just not for me.

[Jess]

I know I'm a little late but I'm reading Altered Carbon by Richard K. Morgan. I'm really excited to get into the Takeshi Kovacs series!

[MadProfessah]

You’re in for a treat!! The Takeshita Kovacs books are a blast. If I re-read those are some of the books I would re-4read soon before Season 2 of the Netflix show comes out.

[RJ - Slayer of Trolls]

Right now I'm reading:


Old Man's War by John Scalzi - my favorite Scalzi book so far (of course that's not saying much...)


Cugel's Saga by Jack Vance - #3 in the Dying Earth series


To Say Nothing of the Dog by Connie Willis - very lighthearted SF time travel homage to the Victorian Age classic Three Men in a Boat

non-genre books:

We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson
Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides
March Violets by the recently deceased Philip Kerr
The Raw Shark Texts by Steven Hall

[Silvana]

Currently reading The Dispossessed

[Phillip]

Humanity's Second Chance

It’s about lizard/bird aliens encountering the first intelligent mammal life on Earth.

[Kirsten]

Silvana wrote: "Currently reading The Dispossessed"

I loved that one!

[RJ - Slayer of Trolls]

Just curious... Do we know yet what the June group read will be? Are there nominations or is it a month where a member will pick?

[Gary]

I finished reading Armada by Ernest Cline, The Heart of What Was Lost (Last King of Osten Ard Book #0.5) by Tad Williams, The Darknet (Murder by Munchausen Mysteries Book #2) by M. T. Bass, and Ricochet Joe by Dean Koontz. I am reading Head On (Lock In #2) by John Scalzi and The Eye of the World (Wheel of Time Book #1) by Robert Jordan. I plan to read Across the River and into the Trees by Ernest Hemingway next.

[Kirsten]

Not science fiction (except for those people who can't tell the difference between sci-fi and fantasy)... but I've been listening to Fool's Assassin

[Silvana]

Provenance by Ann Leckie. Oh wow the pronouns.

Kirsten wrote: "Silvana wrote: "Currently reading The Dispossessed"

I loved that one!"

same here!

[MadProfessah]

Provenance is next on my list but I’m currently reading book 4 in Val McDermid’s TONY HILL & CAROL JORDAN series.

[Mary]

Recursion by Marion G. Harmon

[Clyde]

A Heritage of Stars by Clifford D. Simak

[Phillip]

I just started the third book in the Bobiverse, All These Worlds.

[RJ - Slayer of Trolls]

I finished Herland by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. It's a feminist Uptopian story written and serialized in 1915. Although somewhat dated Gilman's points must have been cutting edge at the time. I enjoyed it and gave it 3 stars.

[MadProfessah]

Instead of PROVENANCE I read THE TWELVE by Justin Cronin instead.
