Continuing my WWII kick with BAND OF BROTHERS. I have watched the HBO series many times but have never read the book.

Finished up IT by Stephen King and enjoyed the heck out of it. Sucked me from start to finish. I love most of the characters that King writes and am invested in their stories. These kids took on a mission and completed it.
I feel like continuing my King marathon, but I am going to break it up again. Last time I finished a King book I broke it up with a James Bond book. I was thinking of doing that again, but it's been awhile since I've read non-fiction, so I am grabbing my copy of David McCullough's THE WRIGHT BROTHERS off my need to read stack. I love his writing and am looking forward to learning about the Wright Brothers, two people I am familiar with, but don't really know.

THIRTEEN REASONS WHY by Jay Asher. I enjoyed the Netflix series, so I'm giving the book a go.

I just started David Sedaris' THEFT BY FINDING. Amazon still lists the book as
available for pre-order, but I received my copy earlier today.

Now starting the second novel in the Gus Murphy series set in the lovely state of New Jersey. Reed Farrel Coleman is definitely one of the best mystery writers that I have discovered in the last few years.

I'm currently re-reading The Making of Star Wars by J. W. Rinzler.
There's so many little nuggets of information I'd forgotten -- for example, it was production designer John Barry who came up with the sequence where Luke and Leia swing across the chasm.

Finished listening to the 17-disc unabridged audiobook version of The Aeronaut's Windlass by Jim Butcher. It's the first book in a new series by the fellow best known for The Dresden Files series, a few of which I've read and enjoyed but haven't become fanatical about. This is a fantasy set in a world where people live in "spires," towering "for miles over the mist-shrouded surface of the world," the surface of which they do not venture on. They sail forth on airships. War breaks out between two spires, with the battle going on on several levels, including soldiers, cats, and wielders of "etheric energy," aka wizards. I liked the book, though I thought it was overlong. Not all the plot threads are wrapped up, it being a series.
