I like to ask this question every few months.
Currently reading Life of Pi by Yang Martel. Saw the movie a few months ago and wanted to read the book. The one I just finished was called Black Ice by Michael Connelly. It’s one of the Bosch books.

Dune, again. I think it's my favourite book, at this point.
Before that, the first Shanarra trilogy by Terry Brooks. Hadn't read them in over a decade and I was happy to find they still hold up well.
I have book 1 of Shannara but haven’t read it yet. I heard Netflix did a terrible job adapting it. Dune is a great book. I need to read the next two
I fell like if someone was a fan of the books then they'd probably think the show was terrible. I thought the books were pretty bad though. I made it through the original trilogy and didnt bother picking any of the rest up. I've gone through Wheel of Time twice and I dont recommend people read it for the same reason I tell them to skip Shanarra. They're too derivative and slow.
I expected the show to be retarded and it was but it was brainless fantasy. Babylon 5 quality.
I had a lot of trouble with shannara. The first one seemed way too lord of the rings. I did actually enjoy the tv show though. I was sick and watched a marathon.
