What did you recently finish reading?

A Queer History of the United States by Michael Bronski
Very surface-level, but that's to be expected and I thought it was a decent-enough primer.

Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead by Olga Tokarczuk
Read as part of my Around the World Reading Challenge for Poland. Interesting, but I couldn't stand the protagonist so that took some of the shine out of it.

Eldest (Inheritance Cycle #2) by Christopher Paolii
I've got my virtual bookclub for this one in a few days. This series is enjoyable enough but doesn't hold up as well on a reread, which I sort of expected.

Fugitive Telemetry (The Murderbot Diaries #6) by Martha Wells
A delight, as always!! I really adore this series.

What are you currently reading?

The Black Friend by Frederick Joseph
Current non-fiction read.

Heroes: Mortals and Monsters, Quests and Adventures (Stephen Fry's Great Mythology, #2) by Stephen Fry
Current audiobook listen.

Pillars of Salt by Fadia Faqir
Curren read for my Around the World Reading Challenge for Jordan.

Intoxicating (Elite Protection Services #1) by Onley James
Current MM romance read. It's okay, but nothing special so far....

What do you think you’ll read next?

Gilded Ones (Deathless #1) by  Namina Forna
New YA fantasy series that's been getting great reviews! Figured I'd give it a go.

How the One-Armed Sister Sweeps Her House by Cherie Jones
Next in my Around the World Reading Challenge Barbados.

How to Avoid a Climate Disaster by Bill Gates
Next non-fiction read.

Upsy-Daisy Dom (Hell's Bedroom #3) by Tanya Chris
Next MM romance read. I quite liked the first in the series and was meh on the second, so we'll see how this one goes...
