Also I forgot to mention a fun FIF detail. There's this thing that can happen to characters, where they suddenly become engulfed in flames, their body floats into the air and disappears, the fire goes out, and there's no trace of them. No one really knows if they're dead or if they magically teleported to some other realm or what. It doesn't matter; the important thing is that they call it "having an Event" and it makes me chuckle every time I read it. I have fun.
I read The Ferryman by Justin Cronin, speaking of dystopian novels. He wrote The Passage and its sequels about a decade ago, solid vampire/apocalypse series kind of like The Stand.. This one was a good read, I was able to figure out the generalities of the mystery pretty quickly but the specifics were solid and unexpected at the end. Would recommend.
I've got that Baldacci book, Shea Serrano's new Werewolf Lawyer "book" and The Bright Sword by Lev Grossman (King Arthur story by the dude who wrote The Magicians series) next in some order. On a pretty long waiting list at the library for The Expanse guy's new one as well.
