I just started The Long Flight Home by Alan Hlad. WW2 historical fiction with overlapping story-lines of Ollie in the Royal Air Force and Susan in the National Pigeon Service involved in an espionage mission in German-occupied France. It's got WW2, airplanes and birds. I starting listening just because the plot sounded entertaining and was delighted to find it is narrated by Simon Vance.
I just finished Followers by Megan Angelo. I very much enjoyed this book. It is a dystopian future showing the effects of technology, government control, and social media influence on individual privacy and community sharing.
I also just finished The Tenth Muse by Catherine Chung. It was good, and the mathematical plot woven with fairy tales / myths was unique, but the writing was a little too formulaic.
