I was pretty busy last week, so couldn't post the weekly thread. Sorry about that.

Since the last update, I finished Cytonic by Brandon Sanderson, book 3 of the sci-fi series Cytoverse. After that, I continued with the last novella Evershore by Brandon and Janci Patterson. Now reading Defiant, the fourth and the final book in the series.

Also reading Design Patterns, a classic book for software design. While I have read about these online and studied from other sources, I never actually read the actual book. So fixing that now.

What about all of you? What have you been listening and reading lately?

A regular reminder about our Book Bingo, and it's Recommendation Post . Links are also present in our community sidebar.

Since last time, I finished Severance by Ling Ma. I thought it was a good read - sorta reminded me of Catcher in the Rye due to its bleak tone & main character’s… unwillingness to take responsibility / control of their life? Overall, I’d recommend it; it’s pretty short.

I’m now reading Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang. These are a collection of short stories that have been really fun!
