Still reading When Moon Hits the Eye by John Scalzi.

Had some vacation, so didn't get time to read much.

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

I'm currently binging Ich möchte zurückgehen in der Zeit by Judith Hermann. As it's been just released it's only available in German yet, but if you're able to read that I highly recommend. It's about Judith's own journey towards discovering the story of her grandfather and the traces this man, who was a convinced Nazi, has left in the family. The horrible shadow that drags way into the third generation, that no one seems to want to acknowledge.
