Finished Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson. It was a surprisingly easy read, and while I remembered the main plot, I didn't remember any of the details, so enjoyed the whole read.

Just finished the book moments ago (which is also why the thread is late), so haven't yet decided what to read next.

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!

For details, you can checkout the initial Book Bingo, and it's Recommendation Post . Links are also present in our community sidebar.

Still working on City of Stairs by Robert Jackson Bennett, but the end is finally in sight! There's a lot of history and backstory and excerpts from in-world texts that slow it down more than I would like, but I'm sure readers more into the world building would appreciate those aspects more.

Going to continue the series?

Doubtful: if I'm going to read something over 350ish pages, I want to be really sucked in, and this didn't do it for me. Definitely not a bad book, or anything I'd call a slog, just a case of mismatch, I think.
