Oooh, Stargate is one of my all-time favourite show, so this just pushed the series to top of my to-buy list.
Didn't know the anime was based on the book, and that there are sequels to this too. Going to check them out.
I am also reading Dresden File, finished Dead Beat a little while ago, going to start Proven Guilty soon.
How are you liking Dune so far?
Expeditionary Force series look pretty interesting. How are you liking it?
Well, Alex Verus has finished so there's that.
I remember that The Way of Kings was a bit slow to start, but didn't realise it was this slow. I have been planning a re-read in anticipation of the 5th book, so nice to adjust my expectations.
I was reading Lightbringer series by Brent Weeks, but gave up at the start of book 3. Have you read it? If yes, how do you compare it with The Night Angel series?
The Witcher is an interesting world. Would be interesting to see how they expand the stories in next games.
That premise about Tender is Flesh made me go from, 'interesting' to 'uhh...' pretty quickly. Do let us know if you do (or do not) finish the book, and how it goes.
I read Dune a loooong time ago, but while I remember the gist of story, don't remember the details, so staying away from the movies too. Going to do a re-read, and then watch the movies.
Huh, how come I didn't know there was a Ghibli movie on A Wizard of Earthsea! Time to check it out!
A very busy week, didn't get to do any reading at all.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening lately?

A reminder about our Book Bingo. Take look, if you haven't already.
Makes sense. I think it should count then, but let me finish the book first 😀
Ryder - creator of bullet journal - compares managing your tasks with a notebook vs on a digital app
Bought couple of books for my young one, and just read through them.
- Read Race to the Rescue By Zanib Mian, book 2 of her "Meet the Maliks - Twin Detective". It's kinda like The Wimpy Kid, but about twin Muslim kids and their family.
- Read The Stonekeeper by Kazu Kibuishi. Book 1 of Amulet series. A 9 book series of graphic novels for kids.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening lately?
And how many of you are taking part in our Books Bingo? Any progress yet?
About 2E, if that 4,000 year old Prince of the Shokan lost an arm, but got tele-kinetic power, which may or may not be the reason or linked to losing his arm, would that count? It's a disability, but he got powers that makes it less of a disability.
Just saw this community on lemm.ee, and since it has no posts and mods, thought I should promote the existing bullet journal community !bulletjournal@discuss.online
It has a bit more people than here, but they are lurker like us, so there isn't much content, but if enough of us are in one place, maybe one day some of us will start posting. 😀
So, do join !bulletjournal@discuss.online and share your bujo!
Last time I announced that The Devils was basically finished, this time I’ll announce that it’s even more basically finished, the copy edit having been done and sent back. US and UK cover art is now pretty much finalised, more about that when it’s appropriate, and we’re currently working on some exc...
I am still reading Three Days to Never by Tim Powers.
Have been pretty busy with real life, so haven't gotten around to doing much reading these past couple of weeks. Have a long list of books lined up after it, so hopefully will get some time over the coming the weekend.
Edit: Can't wait for the Bingo post!
Haven't read a good spy novel lately, will check it out.
Poor Pluto, it could've been a great planet, if given a chance...
Yeah, heard about "Legends" stuff when Disney bought it. Ignoring the narrator / speaker, how's the book?
I am not familiar with Star Wars novels. What is this about?
Interesting. How are you liking it so far?
150 to 200 pages a day is a very good amount. Respect!
Good luck with your audiobook goal!
Whole series is fully translated to German.
Ah, just replied to your other post.
The idea is generally to share what you are reading since the last time you posted in one of these thread (which are posted weekly), or just what you are reading lately.
Also, 69 books and it's just April, that's really cool. With this speed, you can have around 200 books by the year end. Would love to see how your journey progresses.
Wow, that's a lot of books. How long did it take to read all these?

Without further ado, what have you been reading or listening lately?
Finished Starsight by Brandon Sanderson. Second book in Cytoverse series. Loved the way the series progressed, though didn't liked the post-ending much. Going to start the novella soon.
Started Three Days to Never by Tim Powers. It's a standalone sci-fi. Don't remember who recommended Tim Powers or when, but he was mentioned in my list, so got couple of his books. I have just started the book, something is happening, but I am not sure what, so no idea what to think about it yet. Let's see how it turns out.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening lately?

2023 Reflection “The best way to hear god laugh is to announce your plans.” Overview Though I’ve been doing them for years, this is the first time I’ve decided to publicly share my yearly reflection, which is part of my Yearly Ritual.

Hey, all. Brandon here, with what I consider to be some pretty exciting news. Many of you may remember when I wrote last year about my worries regarding aud ...
A day late and a dollar short on this one, for which I blame February and its inadequate number of days. A disappointing month, even in a leap year. But the work continues . . . The Devils is basically finished, line edit done, and its copy edit should be coming back shortly – generally […]
It has been a while. I have been pretty, and haven't been around much.
As for the books, I am still in the same place, reading Book 2 of Confederation The Better Part of Valour by Tanya Huff. Though I did spend some time reading a web novel, Book Eater, author is 메켄로 and translator is RainbowTurtle.
