So my husband and I watched "The Witcher" recently on Netflix. We finished the series and I discovered it was a book series. So being an absolute nerdling I bought the first few books in the series.

What is everyone else reading?

I was going to go check it out on Netflix but then got distracted by Emily in Paris. It's really cute! I'll watch it eventually.....

I'm currently reading Voyager by Diana Gabaldon. The 3rd book in the Highlander series. I'm also reading Hidden Bodies by Caroline Kepnes (second book to You - also a Netflix series) but I put it down for now while I read Voyager.

I've read " Voyager" and am going to start "The Fiery Cross" here soon, too. I heard the author is writing a finale to the series, though. I think she was to wait a bit though to make sure her historical facts are correct.

Lately, I've been reading nothing, lol. I got Midnight Sun from my mom as a bridal shower gift and each time I sit down to read it, I get distracted. I also have about 30 new books downloaded on my kindle app on my iPad that I haven't read yet, all of them free. I'm a lazy butt.

Recently read (listened to...) Ready Player One, Armada and the Martian.

I've not read (again, listened to) any for a while, I really should get back to doing that! During UK lock-down I was able to listen to books while working, but I cannot do that anymore now that guests are back at work - ha.

I loved Ready Player One but hated the movie! Apparently there is a second book coming out soon. How was Armada?

Very similar in the amount that I liked it.

I wouldn't say that I hated the movie, hate is such a strong word hah!

ooooooh goodness no. Stephen King kind of freaks me out. The only one I read of his was "Haven"-- i believe it was called-- and that only was because of the "Haven" show on Netflix.

I own Ready Player One, but haven't read it, yet. I saw the movie and heard the book was much much better-- as most of them are.

It's on my reading list. I have soooooooo many books to read. I can't wait to get a proper bookshelf when we have a house so I can display them all. I just got another book in the mail, too, from my book club, too .

I have a big TBR pile, too. Reading Outlander is slowing me down because of the size to them

HA! It's ok. Maybe you're having a brain cloud and need to go jump in a volcano. ;P( premise of the "Joe VS The Volcano") movie. I can't do science fiction, either.

JOE! Loved that movie! LOL


Mark, Armada by Ernest Cline is supposed to be really good. It's the same author and similar premise.
