Read White Night by Jim Butcher. Book 9 of Dresden Files. The start felt weaker than previous books, but it picked up after a little while, and ended up pretty good overall. In general, every new Dresden Files book feels better than the last one, but with this one, I would say while it’s good, it isn’t better than previous one (Proven Guilty).
Also started reading Side Jobs by Jim Butcher. These are short stories in the same world. I have read all the ones until White Night (the book I just read). Will keep this book in ‘Currently Reading’ pile and read the next stories after reading the respective novels.
Read The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka. The story was weird, specially the ending. Couldn’t decide what to make of it. So will just leave it at that.
Currently reading Moon Over Soho by Ben Aaronovitch. Book 2 of Rivers of London series. Urban fantasy featuring a “magic cop” in London. I loved the first book, and have only just started this one. Have hardly read 5 pages yet.

I just finished The Push by Ashley Audrain. It has me torn so I’m not sure what to make of it. I find myself repulsed but I also can’t stop thinking about it. It’s about motherhood but with a twisted, psychotic twist.
I just started In the Lives of Puppets by TJ Klune. I enjoyed their first book, but since then I’ve found their work a little formulaic. Hopefully this one is refreshing. The title and subject make it seem like YA but I find the jokes lewd enough for grown-ups so I guess I am enjoying it so far.
