Reading The Twelve by Justin Cronin. Book 2 of The Passage trilogy. Around 180 or so pages in, and we are still in the past, the story is interesting, so reading about these characters, but I am still not sure if it will have any effect in the future / present, or it’s just for world building. I am now invested enough now to see where it goes though.

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

    Shadow of Self. Book two of the second Mistborn arc. It’s been pretty great so far. I’m craving book 5 of Stormlight though!

      Keep going! I wrapped those up earlier this year and still miss Vins exploits. Worth it and I wanted more. I need to get through storm light before listening to the next generation of mistborne.

      I’m working on the way of kings, Caladan is the freaking man, can’t wait to see how he develops. His little wind spirit just let us in on what she really is… not going to leak storm light here though.

      I am following his recommended cosmete order so tress and warbreaker were - nice stand alones that reminds me of Pratchett. Also great tidbits about the cosmere.

      I’ll be on Brandon books at least another year I think. Thanks to his work on WoT.

        Definitely am! I’m caught up on Stormlight and I’ve listened to dawnshard edgedancer, and Warbreaker on top of the first mistborn arc.

        Oh you are in for a WILD ride with Stormlight. It’s definitely my favorite of his works so far.
