I'm currently reading "Les Enfants de Ji" from Pierre Grimbert. I like to read some French fantasy authors once in a while. Otherwise, I was taking a break from the Wheel of Time, the next book on my list being the seventh one.

Was reading Release That Witch but dropped it pretty fast. Other than that, catching up on the latest volume of Ascendance of a Bookworm, patiently waiting for Re:Zero vol 22 and slowly making my way through the Spice & Wolf audiobooks

Tunnel rat on royal road. I like the premise and the interactions with ai and humanity.

Currently, I'm reading A Day of Fallen Night by Samantha Shannon

The chosen mode for the story flow has been a bit challenging for me, but not so much as to overcome my interest in the story. I've enjoyed it much and will see it through.

Such a gorgeous cover too.

On book 9 (Winter's Heart) of the Wheel of Time right now, albeit for the 4th time! If it's your first read of the series I hope you're enjoying it, it's my favorite of all time. Book 11 is one of the very best!

I also just started The Prince of Nothing series, for which I've heard good things. I'll have more to say about it later.

The Wheel of Time will always be one of the most impactful books of my life. I really needed it when I was immersed within. I've been wanting to reread for some time, but I've been holding off until I really need again. 💜

Not high fantasy but currently reading Jon's ridiculous shooting case by AJ sherwood. Taking a break from China Melville after finishing Un Lun Dun. Needed something lighter and fun and silly.

Lately I've been going through the Cosmere for a second time and I plan on starting Earthsea today!

I'm reading The Grace of Kings by Ken Liu. So far it's excellent. I feel it's criminally underrated on Goodreads.

I'm rereading (listening) to A Song of Ice and Fire series, currently in the early part of Storm of Swords. I really fell down the theory rabbit hole in the last couple years and finally decided to reread them all after bouncing off a couple of unrelated nonfiction books I had been struggling through.
