Have been pretty busy last couple of weeks, so still reading Shadows of Self by Brandon Sanderson. Book 2 of second era of Mistborn.
Also started Wandering Inn, have read a few chapters, and while interesting, I am not a big fan of the main character. Maybe I have read too many (web) novels that I can’t understand when people don’t act like typical isekai protagonist, but still…
The world building is interesting, want to know more about what’s happening. Will probably try to read at least the first volume and then decide whether I want to continue or not.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?
There’s a Midyear Bingo check-in post, do take a look. Even if you haven’t started this year’s Book Bingo, you can still join, as there are still 6 months remaining only 5 4 months to go!
For details, you can checkout the initial Book Bingo, and it’s Recommendation Post . Links are also present in our community sidebar.
I read Blood and Iron by Katja Hoyer before I started Weimar, which is a very brief beginner friendly account of the years before the first world war and the Weimar republic. It’s a good introduction to set the stage for the ultimately failed first German republic.
The Weimar book is much more thorough, going into a lot more detail and nuance, which I feel is worth it for one of the most interesting and defining times in modern history. Definitely worth a read, though I’m not sure if it’s been translated to English.
