Beginning:
Barry Sutton pulls over into the fire lane at the main entrance of the Poe Building, an Art Deco tower glowing white in the illumination of its exterior sconces.
56:
For a moment, the man just breathes heavily into the phone. Barry thinks he hears a woman also crying in the background, but he isn't sure.
50/50 Friday: Book You Read In A Day/ Book You DNF'd
Read In One Day - The Wicked + The Divine, Vol. 1: The Faust Act by Kieron Gillen, Jamie McKelvie, Matt Wilson, Clayton Cowles - I feel like I haven't mentioned just how much I loved this when I read it back in October.
Book You DNF'd - Unbury Carol by Josh Malerman - I wanted to love this, but I ended up giving it up at 25% through it.
What are you reading this weekend? Are you taking part in Sci-Fi Month this year? As always, thanks for visiting my blog and perhaps even commenting down below!
Recursion seems interesting. I hope you enjoy it once you get to it. :-)

DeleteRight now I'm reading The Sea Witch. The Wicked + The Divine has a lovely cover. I don't know much about that one yet.
ReplyDeleteThe Wicked + The Divine is definitely worth it if you're into mythology.
