Books I've enjoyed the last few months

- Finished the most recent Murderbot book (Martha Wells) - really enjoyed the whole series so far. Looking forward to new one next year.

- The Blacktongue Thief (Christopher Buehlman) - Fun fantasy adventure, more about the journey than the destination and the actual mission. But great characters.

- The Thursday Murder Club (Richard Osman) - Fun characters, the actual mystery was a little more so-so. Will definetly continue with the series. Really like Richard Osman, from the early season of Taskmaster and his current show, Richard Osman's House of Games.

- Read both of the Vera Wong mystery books (Jesse Q Sutanto). Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murders and Vera Wong's Guide to Snooping on a Dead Man. Really enjoy all the characters and both books are really funny. More of a cozy mystery than a hardcore mystery/thriller.

- Of Monsters and Mainframes (Barbara Truleove). The setup was intersting, though some of it felt too much like a few of the Murderbot books with the ship AI storyline. But the old school monsters make for an intersting sci-fi twist.

- A Drop of Corruption (Robert Jackson Bennett). Sequal to The Tainted Cup. Loved this one as much as the first book in the series. Both favorites for the year.

Finished book 4 in The Stormlight Archives, Rhythm of War (Brandon Sanderson). This was probably the slowest of the books so far, but still really enjoyed it. Will need to tackle book 5 in the new year.

The Spellshop (Sarah Beth Durst) - Very cute cozy fantasy. Quick read. For anyone that enjoyed "Legends & Lattes" or "The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches" or "A Psalm for the Wild-Built"

Currently reading "A Strength of the Few" (James Islington), the sequel to "A Will of the Many", which was another of my top 5 books of the year.
