I finished Fool Moon by Jim Butcher, and started The Last White Man by Mohsin Hamid. It’s a thin book, and I am almost at the end.

The book is interesting, though I didn’t like the writing style much, but I guess it suits the story, the way it’s told.

What about you? What have you been reading?

Edit: So, I made this post 2 days ago, but turned out there was some issue between lemmy.world and discuss.online so my posts and comments weren’t showing up here. It seems the issue is resolved now. So, that's why the date is 2 days old, and thread is posted late.

Just started The End of Loneliness after giving up on my third attempt at Lord of the Rings Fellowship of the Ring. Time to admit my love for fantasy novels in my early teens didn't follow me into adulthood.

Well there is nothing wrong with your taste changing, as you grow, but as far as fantasy is concerned, the genre has evolved a lot since LotR days. There are so many sub-genres in fantasy, you should be able to find something you like. Mention the kind of books you want, and I am sure someone will give you the recommendations.
