Finished The Well of Ascension by Brandon Sanderson. Book 2 in the Mistborn series. What I remembered of the ending, was actually 100 pages before the actual end, so was fun reading that.

Currently Reading Practical Demonkeeping by Christopher Moore. Didn’t like the start, but I am about halfway through and enjoying it now. It says it’s “comedy horror”, but I am just not getting the comedy part, which is probably why I didn’t like the start, I think. The story itself is interesting enough though.

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

      I read many. Mostly older authors and very few new ones. Tried to read “Utopia” and it was terrible so I dropped it and went back to the good old novels. Taha Hussein, Najeeb Mahfooz and the likes. I have also read pretty much all of Ali Alwardi’s books, that’s nonfiction, rather sociology. I read for many others, too.
