Best book I read this month: I really loved Quicksilver (not as much as Ultraviolet, though), but my favorite this month was Tana French's first novel, In the Woods. I finally started to read her books after getting some recommendations and looking for something like Gone Girl, a twisted well-written adult mystery.

Worst book I read this month: Marvel Zombies vs. Army of Darkness was just kind of stupid, even though it should have been the crossover of my dreams.

Currently reading: The Likeness, by Tana French (and about ten other books).
