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?

    I completed LotR for the first time completely. I started those books almost 20 years ago but never finished a single one for some reason. I still have my original movie copy of Two Towers with the Magic card I used as a bookmark in it. I bought the trilogy box set and just went for it. I cried multiple times throughout the read, then bawled like a baby at the end of Return of the King. I really felt that 20 year gap in my life come to a close. It was pure catharsis for me.

    Hear hear. I felt like that myself when I read it the first (and maybe also the 2nd) time. But that was 20 years ago. Actually, the first time was way before the first Peter Jackson movie came out. I long resisted even watching the movies, but they do stand up to the books imho.
