Still reading Cold Days by Jim Butcher, the 14th book in Dresden Files series.
Had a busy week so couldn’t get much reading done, about halfway through though.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Just finished:
Midnight Rooms by Donyae Coles. A Gothic fairy tale with promising vibes of Crimson Peak, Beauty and the Beast, and Rebecca. I found it ultimately disappointing as there was never any explanation or lore provided and I thought the MC wasn’t well fleshed out. But if you like Gothic vibes and romance, you might appreciate this one.
The Electric Kingdom by David Arnold. A post-apocalyptic time travel story with likable characters. Thoroughly enjoyed this one.
Currently reading American Sirens: The Incredible Story of the Black Men who Became America’s First Paramedics by Kevin Hazzard. I never knew about them until they were mentioned on The Pitt. Some heartbreaking stories in the first chapter.
I had Midnight Rooms on my TBR list for a while at one point (I really liked the cover, and it sounded interesting), but your impression lines up with the reviews I read. Idk if you read Gothic often, but if you have any recommendations for good Gothic novels, I’d love to hear them!
DuMaurier’s Rebecca is a classic.
Model Home by Rivers Soloman
The God of Endings by Jacqueline Holland
Mexican Gothic by Sylvia Moreno-Garcia
