Finished Defiant by Brandon Sanderon, fourth and final book of the Cytoverse series. Really enjoyed it. Recommended to all sci-fi fans. Though do keep it in mind that it is a bit YA-ish, so if you aren’t a fan of that, you may not love it.
After that, read couple of books I got for the kid. Mainly read them to stay in the loop of what he is reading and how he is liking it. Also, it’s fun to discuss books with him.
First was, the first book in The Breakfast Club Adventures, The Beast Beyond the Fence by Marcus Rashford (The footballer) and Alex Falase-Koya. The protagonist of the series is also named Marcus Rashford, so I am assuming it’s named after him.
Second was Accidental Trouble Magnet by Zanib Mian, first book in Planet Omar series. We are reading her newer series Meet the Maliks and liked that, so started her previous series too.
Currently reading Killing Floor by Lee Child, first book in Jack Reacher series. Before that my only Reacher knowledge is from Tom Cruise movies, so enjoying the book now.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening lately?

Haven’t read either of them, both look interesting. Though Quantum Thief seems more up my alley.
Quantum Thief is genuinely amazing. It’s a book that somehow manages to be both the hardest of hard scifi (the author’s day job is doing hyper advanced quantum math), and also completely batshit insane. There are superheroes, hyper-advanced civilisations built on WOW clans, weapons that use human minds as ammo, a city where people have to make contracts just to remember each others names and where time is currency… And that’s just book one.
The fact that two of the main characters stole a moon is quite literally a footnote. It’s such a minor detail that it gets mentioned in passing. That’s the level of insane this series operates on.
