I almost forgot the weekly thread again, so just putting it up, will post my updates later.

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

I read the first one over my Christmas downtime. Moved on to the second one in the new year. I have a large collection of Stephen King, and Joe Hill books. Ive had a love of reading for a long time. These books have been like eating popcorn or chips. They feel like fanfiction of all my favourite games mashed together, but then had the quality increased about 10%. They arent bad. But they arent... Amazing. Like... I have bought 5 of them now, with the intention of supporting the author and finishing the series as I can. But I wouldnt say... Man you need to read this book. The Martian? Operation Hail Mary? Gotta read. Ready Player One? Yeah, that was solid. You should read.

Dungeon Crawler Carl? Its like a bathtub book. Or what I would consider a bathtub book if you weren't interested in anything 'spicy' or vampires. So far solid 8/10
