Not much to say about it. It's bad guy being a bad guy and Reacher being Reacher. Some interesting side characters, would love to see if it means any character development or not.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Currently trying to get through The Fisherman by John Langan, to help expand my ability to recommend cosmic horror.

Finished:

The Thief by Claire North (speculative historical thriller | bingo squares: another continent, minority author, orange, short, game)

A man stakes his memory on a game of hide and seek in Thailand in the 1930s, forcing him into the wilderness to avoid discovery by his opponent's many pawns. Second in the Gameshouse trilogy.

I didn't love the tense-switching within paragraphs, but I can't object to a story about a desperate protagonist trying to cleverly outmaneuver their foes. Enjoyed; will read the third at some point.
