Finished The Alloy of Law by Brandon Sanderson. Book 1 of 2nd era of Mistborn. This was a very interesting book. Set about 300 years after the first era. The changes in the world, and to learn about some of the characters, it was all very interesting, and I am very glad that I re-read the first era before reading this.

Finished Five on a Treasure Island by Enid Blyton. The book was surprisingly good. I quite enjoyed it, and it didn't even feel old.

My kid is already on book 5. So, highly recommended your for your 9-12 year olds.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?


There's a Midyear Bingo check-in post, do take a look. Even if you haven't started this year's Book Bingo, you can still join, as there are ~~still 6 months remaining~~ only 5 months to go!

For details, you can checkout the initial Book Bingo, and it's Recommendation Post . Links are also present in our community sidebar.

Currently half way through Morningstar, third book of Red Rising by Pierce Brown. I think I'll have it finished roughly a week from now and then move on to the fourth book. Still enjoying the series, and it's nice to be able to talk to my wife about it as she's on Lightbringer. There's quite a bit of overlap with what we read, but she tends towards cozier books than I do, and I'll listen to stuff like the darkstar trilogy which I think she wouldn't enjoy at all
