I was pretty busy last week, so couldn't post the weekly thread. Sorry about that.

Since the last update, I finished Cytonic by Brandon Sanderson, book 3 of the sci-fi series Cytoverse. After that, I continued with the last novella Evershore by Brandon and Janci Patterson. Now reading Defiant, the fourth and the final book in the series.

Also reading Design Patterns, a classic book for software design. While I have read about these online and studied from other sources, I never actually read the actual book. So fixing that now.

What about all of you? What have you been listening and reading lately?

A regular reminder about our Book Bingo, and it's Recommendation Post . Links are also present in our community sidebar.

Finished Into the water by Paula Hawkins. I would say that it's not as gripping as I thought. What is as much a plus and a minus point is tge change of narrator every chapter. At first, I was pleased by this "not so usual" way of writing but at some point, I just got lost about who is who and I had to search a list of characters on the web. That's perhaps because I had not a lot of time to read, so it took a while.

I started Behind her eyes by Sarah Pinborough. I know there is a Netflix show inspired by this but I prefer to read the novel first (or only we will see).
