What are you currently reading?

Just finished The Scarlet Empress (really liked it!)
Almost finished The Deviant Strain (only a few Chapters left, maybe I will finish it today)
And after that I will jump into the VNA White Darkness, heard great Word of Mouth for this one, so I am very curious! (And I really should try more of the VNAs)

Edit: I am stupid, why did I say Only Human when I meant Deviant Strain? :sob:

Finished “The Minister of Chance” novelisation last night. And then listened to the audio version today :slightly_smiling_face:

I like the story being told, and the world building is really good. But I think it would have benefitted from being a good 100 pages longer in order to be a bit more descriptive. It’s maybe a bit too much word-for-word in the novelisation at times, but I had a good time reading it nevertheless.

Kitty is such a fantastic protagonist - barefooted, orphaned 17 year old sassy barmaid with a temper and super strength .
The Minister is super frustrating :joy:

I wonder why the author switched Paul Darrow’s character in the audios to a woman in the book. Not that it actually makes any difference…

I just started Twelve Angels Weeping, a collection of 12 short stories focusing on 12 different DW villains (although I assumed it would be all about the Weeping Angels due to the title) by Dave Rudden.

I love 12 Angels Weeping. Student Bodies and Ghost in the Machine especially.

I read the “Miranda” comics yesterday evening.
I am sad we never got a conclusion to that, I kind of enjoyed that storyline :slightly_smiling_face:

I read the Seventh Doctor Titan comic yesterday - amazing use of the Counter-Measures team :grin:

And the little short with the First Doctor, Susan, Ian and Barbara at the end was lovely :blush:

See @Tian , I do read Doctor Who stuff as well! :wink:
Anyway, and totally unrelated, I’m also halfway through "The Cabinet of Light - first book in the Time Hunter series :grin:

I recently did that as an audiobook. Do check out my review. :wink: I was wary about the range but actually rather enjoyed it.

Oh, a review marked for spoilers I see…
I’ll make sure to read it once I’ve finished reading the book (probably today) :grin:

And the audiobook is narrated by Terry Molloy? Now I wish I was listening to that instead :slightly_smiling_face:
