I made a goal of reading 70 books this year (including Fiction and Non-Fiction). I have divided it up to various categories and genres to give myself variety. I have also spread out the reading "difficulty" to help with the pace. Finished Origin by Dan Brown so far. Currently reading Frankenstein and The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F##k.

The Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett and Sapiens - A brief history of the human kind are on the docket.

I might be wrong, but I believe many apps typically have a substantial number of classics available for free- text and audio books. I have read Crime and Punishment and attempted to read Pride and Prejudice. Want to try some of the classics as audiobooks now.

How was Origin? I have been meaning to pick that up, as that series is kind of a guilty pleasure of mine.

^^^^^^

Do you have to read the series in order or can you just read one offs? I read one of his a few years ago and loved it.

I actually liked The Origin. Dan Brown generally has become an author that uses the same recipe for most of his novels. This one was definitely an interesting read, departing from his norm. My favorite novel by him though is still Digital Fortress and the least favorite one was Inferno.

Jayswin, his books center around the same character, but you don't really need to follow any order as the stories are not really linked. He might refer things here or there, but each novel is an all encompassing read.
