Still reading Shadows of Self by Brandon Sanderson. Book 2 of second era of Mistborn.

Just a few pages remaining now, would've finished it, but kid got a book from his school library, and wanted me to read it too, so reading Gangsta Granny by David Williams.

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

I'm currently listening to Educated by Tara Westover. I've also been reading The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August but I've put that on hold because I realized I'm not good at reading more that one book at the same time haha.

Alternating between fiction and non-fiction, I finished N.K. Jemisin's Broken Earth trilogy and I'm currently reading Memory for Forgetfulness by Mahmoud Darwish.

Absolutely adore the broken earth trilogy, it's so refreshing to have a main character who's a middle aged mother, and Jemisins prose might be my favorite of any author

Recently finished a re-read of Lord of the Rings, and am working my way through The Silmarillion again now. Found them in gorgeous hardback editions that also have Tolkien’s illustrations. Ideally once I’m finished with Silmarillion I’ll start in on Tolkien’s other works that I’ve never read at all - Unfinished Tales, Morgoth’s Ring, etc.

Reading The Silmarillion can confuse anyone, so your name makes sense 😀
