Hello everyone! The weekly threads are back after a small hiatus.

I was reading Rosemary and Rue by Seanan McGuire (first book in her October Daye urban fantasy series), picked it up again but bookmark had dropped somewhere and I couldn't find where I was, so may start from some earlier place.

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

I’m currently reading book 8 of the Star Wars XWing series “Isards Revenge”. It takes place immediately after the Thrawn trilogy and brings back Isard who was supposed to have been dead. She took over the Emperors “role” after he was killed.

During the hiatus I read a few of the other XWing books and the entirety of the Remembrance of Earths Past (3body problem) by Cixin Liu. Wonderful read, and gave me a few new perspectives about the universe.

Im looking forward to The Captives War book 2 in a couple weeks! Same author(s) as The Expanse.

    I just finished Thrawn (the prequel not the trilogy) and it was every bit the one-dimensional schlocky romp that I had hoped for. Marc Thompson does some p entertaining voice work.

    Ah man, I forgot to specify this is legends! My brother enjoyed the new trilogy, not as much as legends though.

    The Thrawn trilogy was my first foray into the SW/Legends book universe, from there I’ve been reading all the legends books in chronological order. So this puts me around 70 or so. My brothers collected them all used and I’m borrowing them.
