Still reading Cold Days by Jim Butcher, the 14th book in Dresden Files series.

Had a busy week so couldn't get much reading done, about halfway through though.

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

I had Midnight Rooms on my TBR list for a while at one point (I really liked the cover, and it sounded interesting), but your impression lines up with the reviews I read. Idk if you read Gothic often, but if you have any recommendations for good Gothic novels, I'd love to hear them!
