Started Whispers Underground by Ben Aaronovitch. Book 3 of Rivers of London series.

Just started it, not much to say about it yet.

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

"The Blade Itself" by Joe Abercrombie. It may have been a little overhyped, but I'm enjoying it so far.

I read the series years ago, and recently learned that it's not just a trilogy! I just re-read the first three, read the second three for the first time, and am planning to start the next three (starting with A Little Hatred) in the next month.

I find the world-building in the first trilogy quite good, and I like having a bit of a darker story.
