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?

I'm on book 5 of the Wheel of Time on Audible. I hope the TV series keeps going but it sounds like a lot of people think it's meh.

I’m planning on reading The Expanse at some point, but currently I’m not reading any sci-fi, since I’m reading A Game of Thrones and Empire of Ivory.

Trying to punch through Seasons of Skulls by Charles Stross.

Finally got to finish Death's End. Got really dark by the end ans current life events dont really support this kind of reading.

I just finished The Deep Sky by Yume Kitasei. It was a decent page-turner that kept me wanting to read the next chapter.

Still haven't decided what to read next. Are there any good newish cyberpunk books?

I've been taking a short break from Malazan Book of the Fallen recently, by exploring some new, lighter books, especially while at work, but I think I'm going to get back into it in August.
