What are you currently reading?
The Silence of Six by E.C. Myers
Max used to be best friends with Evan. Things changed after Evan was diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome. Between the diagnosis and the effects of his new medications, Evan drew away from his friends. Max hadn't talked to him in quite some time when Evan hacked a live-streaming presidential debate, asking the very cryptic question "What is the silence of six and what are you going to do about it" before killing himself. Immediately after Evan's suicide, officials lock down all of the details of the debate and simply knowing Evan makes Max the target of a national investigation. 
I'm only a few chapters into this novel but it holds a lot of promise. I'm a fan of books that encourage the reader to consider political issues, the role of technology in our lives, and to question everything. 
 
What did you recently finish reading?
Creed by Trisha Leaver and Lindsay Currie
On their way to a concert Dee, her boyfriend Luke, and his brother Mike run out of gas. With temperatures plummeting and emergency sirens sounding, they take refuge is a small, seemingly abandoned town. But nothing is as it seems in Purity Springs. When the inhabitants appear in the morning, Dee and her friends realize that the leader, Elijah, poses far more danger than the storm.
 
What do you think you will read next?
Stone Cove Island by  Suzanne Myers
This one promises a decades old murder mystery in the aftermath of a hurricane. Could be pretty awesome.
