A day late, but better late than never!

I finished Grave Peril, third book of Dresden Files, by Jim Butcher. The series has start picking up. This book is much higher quality than the first two.

Currently, I am reading two books.

The Bullet Journal Method by Ryder Carroll. I have been using bullet journal for nearly a decade, but never got around to reading the book, so finally got it. While there's nothing new in the method, the "why" are interesting, and should help me be more productive.
Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir. Man, what a book. I think this is one of the best book I have read recently. I am more than half-way, and loving every moment of it.

What about all of you? What have you been reading?

Really? I was quite sure the next two books will be last. I should look it up again.

The numbers are a bit in the air because of some of the plot got shifted around and that added 1-2 books. If I recall the current plan is 22 regular casebooks, 3 short story collections, and one trilogy to finish the series (some times referred to as “Big Apocalyptic Trilogy” or BAT).

Thanks fro the details!

So, after 2013, he has only released two Dresden Files novels, both in 2020. Though he said in a recent interview that he will finish the next Dresden Files novel this year, by Christmas, so I think we can expect 2024 release date for Twelve Months.

He is also releasing the next Cinder Spires novel this year, as well as a novella. I am hopeful he will be releasing books regularly now.

Though, I think I should start adding a bigger gap between each book, to keep them going for couple of years.

He had a bunch of personal life drama after 2013 that involved a divorce, a move, building a house with radioactive complications, a wedding, and a second divorce.

He seems to be back on schedule though.
