I just finished The Midnight Line, a Jack Reacher novel by Lee Child. I 'read' the audio book. It seemed a little overly long and drawn out but that may have been because of the narrator. Eleven CD's. Interesting story though. Reacher investigates what happened to a young woman, a West Point graduate who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, and he journeys to the backcountry of Wyoming to deal with dangerous drug dealers to rescue the woman.

Most recent of Lee Child's Jack Reacher novels I listened to was Make Me.
Mothers Rest, the town, really is disturbing. It sure puts a double meaning to the term Dark Web

Just finished “Eight Lives Down” by Major Chris Hunter. Excellent read about his tour in Iraq as EOD.

https://www.amazon.com/Basics-Resist.../dp/1980673241 looks very very interesting. I think I might just need to pick it up here and check it out.

+1, I like to read Claire Wolfe.

Turned out to be an interesting read. Enjoyed it.

I just started "On Combat: The Psychology and Physiology of Deadly Conflict in War and Peace" - Dave Grossman. I have had this book for year now and have finally started "actually" reading it. It is hard for me to find time to read or the want but I do enjoy it when I do.

Well, almost six years later... I finally finished it . I would start it and stop reading for a couple of weeks and have to start over. My GF and I were talking one night and she reminded about audio books. I looked it up on amazon and there it was, narrated by Dave himself. I started it about a month or so ago and finished just now (18 hours 44 minutes long). I would mostly listen to it whenever I was driving. Really, really, beneficial book. I am looking forward to finding more audio books now that I have found a way that I can enjoy them.

Just finished the second book in Jim Butcher’s Dresden Files series, Fools Moon. Fun read if you enjoy a twist on detective noir novels like the stuff by Dashiell Hammett.

Sticking with my penchant for dystopia stories, last week I finished reading Founders - A Novel Of The Coming Collapse by James Wesley Rawles.

The premise of this story is a total collapse of American society, not by EMP but by economic collapse. The story follows several individuals located in various parts of the nation and how they survive The book has a heavy religious/Christian theme to it, but as a Christian myself, I didn't find it too distracting.

As with any of the dystopia books I read I need to sit down and go back through a few parts and make notes for myself (ideas for bug out bag contents and lessons learned sort of thing).

I've read and re-read that series (many books!) and they just get better and better.

Just starting “The Terminal List”, by Jack Carr. It’s a fictional novel, written by a former SEAL, about a SEAL who unleashes vengeance after ending up on the short end of a government conspiracy. It’s the guy’s first book, pretty good so far. It’s nice to read something in which the info about firearms and shooting seems accurate.
