Reading the third book in the Jack Reacher series by Lee Child, Tripwire

Liking this more than the second book. Reacher was very passive in that book, so it's nice to see him taking action in this one.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

I finally finished Wind and Truth by Brandon Sanderson (Stormlight book 5). I feel a bit divided about this book. There was a lot that I liked but also a lot that didn't really work for me. I might have enjoyed it more if I had read certain other cosmere books first.

After that I wanted to read something short, so I've been binging The Impossible Times series by Mark Lawrence, which is YA scifi set in the 1980s. Book 1 was awesome, book 2 less so, and so far book 3 is somewhere in between. Overall a good change of pace!
