Still reading the third book in the Jack Reacher series by Lee Child, Tripwire. More than half-way through, closer to 2/3rd actually.

Not much to say about it. It's bad guy being a bad guy and Reacher being Reacher. Some interesting side characters, would love to see if it means any character development or not.

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

About two thirds through Tender Is The Flesh. Not for the faint of heart... Wow.

Just finished Antifragile by Nassim Taleb for the third time.

Product Driven by Matt Watson (book is out on the 17th, got it early for review purposes), it's fantastic!

The Black Death by Dorsey Armstrong and it's also fantastic! I learned so much I didn't know. Like the plague lasted 300+ years and reoccurred every ~10 years. And some would argue over 1000 years. Wild!

Dawnshard by Brandon Sanderson in my attempt to get caught up on all things cosmere. 7 more books and I'm all caught up!
