These are all the books I have read either at work or home during 2023. To add to the list, I am going include the audiobooks I have listened to this year.

Eyes of the Void by Adrain Tchaikovsky

The Web by Jonathan Kellerman

I'm Glad My Mom is Dead by Jennette McCurdy

Holly by Stephen King (yes, listened and read the book)

Fairytale by Stephen King

All the below I listened to in anticipation of Holly coming out. All written by Stephen King.

Mr Mercedes Finder's Keepers If It Bleeds. Life of Chuck. The Outsider.       

Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir

The Woman Who Wouldn't by Gene Wilder

The Family Plot by Cherie Priest

DumaKey by Stephen King

Later by Stephen King

Old Mans War by John Scatzi

Neuromancer by William Gibson

Off To Be The Wizard by Scott Meyer

Run Program by Scott Meyer

The Talisman by Stephen King

Mile 81 by Stephen King

She's Come Undone by Wally Lamb

The Hour I First Believed by Wally Lamb

Now that is all the books some of these I read before or listened to many times, and I am pretty sure there some I forgot.

I read at least one book a day unless really busy, then maybe can take up to three days.

My 40 minutes of round trip commute, along with my other traveling, allows me to listen to a lot of audiobooks.

I hope to beat this reading record for 2024.

Happy New Year!

Wow that's a lot! Do you have any particular favourites of the ones you read?

[-] Fredselfish@lemmy.ml 4 points 10 months ago

Actually, yes. Both Wally Lamb novels are my favorite. Any Johnathan Kellerman novel. Project Hail Mary is great.

11/22/63 was a nice read, and all the autobiographies were good. Christopher Reeves was heart renchin.

I've read Project Hail Mary - that was great fun, and went to interesting places I wasn't expecting.

11/22/63 is one I've been wanting to read. Will definitely do so at some point next year!

What did you think of Neuromancer? I finished that not too long ago.

[-] Fredselfish@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago

I had own that one for a long time. I can say I wish I had listened to it earlier it was a great novel. Will definitely be picking up a physical copy this coming new year just like all my autobooks. I have physical copies for most of them.

Glad you enjoyed it! It was a really interesting heist type novel with some great world building. Cool how it basically started its own 'cyberpunk' genre.
