So what are you reading this year 2021?

I read this in 2 nights, including staying up until midnight to finish it:

Sweet Silver Blues - Wikipedia

Private Investigator series by Glen Cook. It was a fun little book, if you can get by some sexism and racism (aimed at other fantasy races)......I also own the second one in the series, so I'll likely read that in the coming weeks.

Back to a bit of Tales of the Dying Earth for a few chapters, then something else I'm sure......

Started Oath of Fealty by Niven, pretty much a dystopia predicated on his political leanings.

I finished up Garden of Beasts - it was very good; I spent this afternoon finishing it up - and am now moving on to More Twisted: Collected Stories, Volume II by the same author, Jeffery Deaver. I read (and enjoyed) his first short-story collection, Twisted, within the past year or so but I've found that while he's the master of the plot twist, in a short story there's usually so much less going on that it's much easier to spot the twists coming. But I'm looking forward to the collection nonetheless; he almost never disappoints.

Just Finished: I, Lucifer, by Peter O'Donnell. I think the author sometimes overcorrects for all those stories in which nothing goes wrong for the protagonists by having too much go wrong for Modesty and Willie while still having them pull through okay. Also finished the third volume of The Saint's Magic is Omnipotent by Yuka Tachibana. The plot is starting to get a bet boring now that the only antagonistic character has been shooed off the stage, and the only real problem the protagonist faces is her emotional issues.

Starting: The Incrementalists, by Skyler White and Steven Brust.

Planning to Read: Tales of the Velvet Comet, by Mike Resnick.[/I]

I finished Jeffery Deaver's second short story collection and have now moved on to his third. He switched up the naming convention, though: the first two were Twisted and More Twisted, but this one's Trouble in Mind.

Murderbot!!!! I told you!!!

I've only read the Abhorsen trilogy. First two books were fantastic; the third was like "oh crap, gotta wrap this up". Haven't had the heart to read Beyond The Wall yet.

I liked the abhorsen trilogy, but yes the 3rd was kind of a "gotta wrap" feeling.

I would also mildly recommend Nix's Keys to the Kingdom series. The Keys to the Kingdom - Wikipedia
