I'm quite keen to read Dune soon, I've got a few books currently on my reading list which are infront of it, but I'd like to take the time to find the first three in secondhand book shops which don't feature Timothee Chalamet's face lmao.
Currently reading (books): Coin Locker Babies by Ryu Murakami - I've got about 100 pages left, but it's been a really great read. Quite heavy, and at some points draining emotionally because of the central themes and subjects, but I would recommend it to anybody who's interested in a more subtle side of Cyberpunk fiction slashed with romantic drama/horror.
Next on my book list is What I Talk About When I Talk About Running by Haruki Murakami, which will be a relatively short read, followed by Paul Takes the Form of a Mortal Girl by Andrea Lawlor, which a friend lent me a few months ago and I began reading, but at Christmas I fell off with reading and dropped it because of how busy I got.
Currently reading (Comics): Ultimate Spider-Man 2024 - This is a great rendition of the character, feel like I'm finally really starting to see some great modern Marvel comic writing rather than just having to trawl through classic reading lists of 90's Marvel to be able to enjoy anything with any real coherence to the story and characters. One thing I will say though, is that they often have a second set of pencillers and inkers in for select issues, and their art just isn't up to par with the normal duo.
