Finished The Alloy of Law by Brandon Sanderson. Book 1 of 2nd era of Mistborn. This was a very interesting book. Set about 300 years after the first era. The changes in the world, and to learn about some of the characters, it was all very interesting, and I am very glad that I re-read the first era before reading this.
Finished Five on a Treasure Island by Enid Blyton. The book was surprisingly good. I quite enjoyed it, and it didn’t even feel old.
My kid is already on book 5. So, highly recommended your for your 9-12 year olds.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

I gave up on A Song of Ice and Fire when I realised he is never going to finish it.
Also, books are just too depressing. I don’t like my fantasy to be that dark.
That’s definitely fair. I play a lot of the ASOIAF miniatures game, so I figured I should probably brush up on the background material. The books are fine, but he’s never going to finish them. The game based on those books is fantastic, however.
Didn’t know there are ASOIAF miniature games, but of course, it makes sense. Not much into them myself though. I do play board games with family, but they aren’t anything too deep and RPGish.
