Still reading Your Money Or Your Life: 9 Steps to Transforming Your Relationship with Money and Achieving Financial Independence by Vicki Robin. There are some interesting points in it, though not implementing anything right now, just reading the book.
Finished volume 7 of Jujitsu Kaisen manga, by Gege Akutami.
Started The Passage by Justin Cronin. Saw it recommended here a few times, and ordered the trilogy, books are so much longer than I expected. Each book can probably be divided in 2 and still be on slightly thicker end of average book size. I am still at the start, only 60-70 pages yet. Getting a slight feel of Stephen King books. Let's see how it progresses.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

I have heard that R. A. Heinlein can be a bit preachy. Haven't read enough of his work to comment on that myself though.
I didn't think it's unusual for an author to inject their views into their writing, and it's usually fine. Heinlein often writes from a libertarian, pull yourself by your bootstraps, sexually free (for young women in particular), patriarchal viewpoint. I like his world building very much and usually his pacing.
I read mostly older sci-fi from the 40s-70s, so I've become quite adept at ignoring offensive and of-the-times stuff. Just a "yikes" and move on.
I really like a few of his books. Stranger in a Strange Land, Have Spacesuit -- Will Travel, and I Will Fear No Evil are some of my favorites.
