[July] What are you reading?

I ran across Nobody Move by Denis Johnson while unpacking, so that's on my short list.

"1356" by Bernard Cornwell. As always, a very enjoyable read.

Next up will probably be "Queen of Thorns" by Dave Gross, or the latest Pathfinder AP volume if that arrives before I finish the other.

Also on this month's list: "The Folklore of Discworld" by T. Pratchett and J. Simpson, and "The Reverse of the Medal" by Patrick O'Brian. But I have a couple of long flights this month, so might get through more.

I finished NOS4A2 which is a good if a bit long horror novel by Joe Hill. It has plenty of creepy characters and some cool references to King's works probably more then I was able to recognize.

Sacre Bleu: A Comedy d'Art, by Christopher Moore. Very good so far; I like Moore's work, and this feels a little more...meaningful than some of the others. More Lamb, less Sequined Love Nun.

The Boy Who Would Live Forever, by Frederik Pohl. It's the latest book in the Gateway series that I've seen.

Found a few Nero Wolfs that I'd never read; I think now I've got every one except a couple that were "finished" by someone else... They're compulsively readable, and will make pretty good mystery game plots, with a few setting alterations.

edit: spelling

Finished Sacre Bleu (4/5). Good book. I think it's intentionally a bit fuzzy on what Blue is, but ce la vie.

Started Abaddon's Gate. Measures up so far. I feel like James Corey (as manifested by the authors) had a real...purpose in these books, and that was to write something fun. Something that, as it says on the cover, is basically a Hollywood blockbuster in novel form. I could live with a little more of that.

I just finished Tender is the Night by Fitzgerald. I'm currently reading The Panda's Thumb by S. J. Gould, Panzer Destroyer by Vasiliy Krisov and Pirate's Honor by Chris Jackson (a Pathfinder Tales novel).

Redshirts​ by John Scalzi. Recommended for any old-school Trek fans wh have managed to retain a sense of humor, and who aren't afraid of a story going all meta on them.

Has anyone here read The Maid by Kimberly Cutter?
