Finished Tripwire by Lee Child, third book in the Jack Reacher series.

Ending was expected, but I guess if you have such a long running series, pretty much ending will always be expected. Bad guy meets Reacher, bad guy loses, Reacher wins. Fun to read though, which is the main point. Going to keep reading them.

Don't think it ticked any of the Bingo boxes though.

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

Took a break in the series at The Wolves of Cala. Something about this particular book isn't resonating with me. Maybe this western showdown vibe is dragging on too long, it's almost off putting at this point. I want more of the sci fi elements and notes that the earlier books had.
