Finished The Kingdom of Copper by S. A. Chakraborty, the 2nd book in The Daevabad Trilogy.

Went straight to the sequel, The Empire of Gold, the 3rd and last book in the series.

What about all of you, what have you been reading and listening?

Doing a full read through of Discworld, or just City Watch novels?

How did you like Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrel? It has been on my to-read pile for ages, but for some reason haven't gotten to it yet.

Tomorrow, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow is by Gabrielle Zevin? The plot seems interesting, let me know how you find the book.

My plan is to read the Watch, Death, and Witch series. And Interesting Times as a stand alone.

I really liked Strange and Norrell. It def isn't for everyone though. It's pretty slow moving. I like strong character driven books without front to back action sometimes and this one is very well written.

So far I like Tomorrow. Yeah it's by Gabriel Zevin. I'm not very far into it though. Haven't had time to read much these last couple of weeks.. but yeah it's been a good read so far! I'll try to remember to update here when I'm done. (Apologies in advance if I forget).

Thanks for the input. And don't worry, if you forget, you forget, not much we can do about it 😀
