Still reading The Twelve by Justin Cronin. Book 2 of The Passage trilogy, so no change there.

It has become quite interesting though (or maybe it's just the Stockholm syndrome talking), I am in last 1/3 or maybe 1/4th of the book, and things have started to get together, though I still don't know what's the goal in this book. From all I have read, this seems to just be a 'middle' book whose purpose is to explore the world and take us from book 1 to book 3 where everything will be concluded.

Let's see how I feel by the time I finish it.

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

Have heard great things about her, but have yet to read any of her work.

How are you enjoying it? I heard it's a bit different from the movie.

I like it so far. I love the movie and its cool to read the story in more detail. There are some differences in the events and things that happen and of course since you get the thoughts of Sophie on top of that its nice.

Also I like the writing style, its very easy to visualize and pretty straightforward
