At the moment, I'm reading A Better World, the second in a series by Marcus Sakey. Series is about people being born, since 1986 with unique abilities. These are the abnorms, and the battleground is set between the norms and the abnorms. Enjoyed the first, enjoying the second.

Just finished listening to Bred to Kill, by French author Franck Thilliez. His first book, at least the first translated, was Syndrome E. Bred to Kill is a mystery, thrill, primer on evolution, a love story, a tragic story. Thilliez is one heck of a writer.

Now listening to I am having so much fun here without you, by Courtney Maum. Just a few hours into it. About love, marriage, adultery. The usual. Not sure if I like it yet. One thing about it that bothers me is that the male character is only 34, married for only 7 years. And so his 7-month affair is not so much a midlife crisis but something a little more opportunistic.

Holy Cow, by David Duchovny. Just couldn't get into it. A bit sophomoric.
