I am reading The House at Sea’s End by Elly Griffiths. A Ruth Galloway mystery. It was supposed to be a quick read, but got busy with some stuff, so going slowly.

What about all of you? What are you reading, or listening these days?

Note: So, I posted this last week, but for some issue with federation it didn't actually sync. So, this will be another one and half week post.

Yeah, it's a character from the framing story of the two main books, Wise Man's Fear is the second. I think they're still worth reading even if we'll probably never see the series completed, it's some really beautiful writing.

Side note, The Lies of Locke Lamora is my favourite book, and that's another series that'll probably never be finished. On the bright side I hated A Song of Ice and Fire 🤷‍♀️ I'm 400 pages into The Way of Kings which is my first Sanderson book, so at least I've got approximately 150 years of reading lined up while I wait.

Haha, that's my problem too. Too many book and too little time. So why not read stories that are already finished? I don't care if every single plot line is solved, but there should be some kind of ending at least.

As for Rothfuss, I follow his blog and like his style, so it's possible I'll just give up one day and get the books even if he doesn't finish it.
