Song of Achilles, starts somewhat slow but once you hit a certain point you won’t want to put it down.

The Dungeon Crawler Carl series. I read all six books in about two weeks. Such a funny series.

[Age Of Vice](https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/60177466) was the first book I read after retiring, and the first in a long time that I didn’t read on my Kindle. I read the hardcover.
The story is fast paced, the writing is very good, and because I had all this “new” time on my hands I gladly went right through it.

The books someone finds un-put-downable vary a lot from person to person. Here are some of mine, hopefully you will like them!
* Leech by Hiron Ennes
* Kindred by Octavia E. Butler
* The Locked Tomb series by Tamsyn Muir. Be warned, these are very much love-it-or-hate-it books.
* Provenance by Ann Leckie. Part of a series, but this book works as a stand alone novel.

The Passage by Justin Cronin. It’s long as hell, so blowing through it took a little longer, but I definitely burned through that book as fast as any book I’ve read.

Parable of the Sower by Octavia E Butler. 400+ pages but it’s impossible to stop reading.

“I, Claudius” by Robert Graves. I haven’t found a “wow” book since I read this one and it has been years. The booktok books I have been reading lately have been so disappointing. Unfortunately, I have a lot of them on my TBR and I just have to push through because I don’t want the money to go to waste.
I have “Piranesi” and “The Secret History” on my TBR so I’m looking forward to those, judging from the comments on this post they should be good…
