Still reading Starsight by Brandon Sanderson, second book of Skyward (Cytoverse) series. About half done. It's interesting to get more details about the world.

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

Space Eldritch II by various. It's an anthology of futuristic cosmic horror stories recommended to me by this sub. So far I'm enjoying it more than Space Eldritch I, although they're both good.

sigh you just wasted so much of my time...

I checked if Space Eldritch is available at my local store, but then I thought, there are many original Lovecraft's stories that I haven't read, so checked if they had his work, and they had a Hardcover "Complete Fiction of H. P. Lovecraft", added it to my list to order. Then went to Wikipedia to make sure the book really had the complete fiction, and noticed most of his work is available on WikiSource. So, while I still want that complete collection hardcover, it would be difficult to carry it with me, as I do with my books, so having soft copies would be helpful, so started downloading all the stories, one by one...

I wasted it in the best way, though. 😀

No doubt about that.
