I've put together a collage of some books from last months What are you Reading? post. It's mostly random, but the more discussion something gets the more it stands out to me. Going forward I'm going to make a new post every month to talk about what people are reading.

Here is last months post. What are you Reading? (July 2023)

At any rate, what are you currently reading or plan to read in August?

Just finished the first three books for Red Rising. Really loved it. Not sure if I want to start the next part of the series. I just want the main character to be happy. Can't take more of his torture.

Lol I feel this comment in my bones. I’m trying to emotionally prepare myself to read Lightbringer.

Working my way through Dark Age... I don't think this dude is ever allowed to catch a break

I like how this mentality is still a thing years later. I read the first three as they came out, thought "what a great trilogy!", and then "Oh no..." when I saw it was going to continue. Even if it's great, I'm of your opinion, I just want the main characters to be happy already! I still haven't read the sequel trilogy to this day, lol.
