Reading: The Sunlit Man by Brandon Sanderson.

Nothing new at my end. Had another busy work week, didn't get time to read anything. It is over now though, so should be able to finish it this week.

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

Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel. Not sure where it's going yet, reviews are raving but I'm having a bit of trouble getting into it. Just finished Pride and prejudice by Jane Austen which I thoroughly enjoyed, and before that the murderbot diaries, also enjoyed immensely. We'll see.

Your comment has me convinced. I tend to read sci-fi but have been “classic curious” for a long time. Had been eyeing Silas Marner for a while - it’s now next in my list (after I finish Use of Weapons by Iain M. Banks).

I'll be curious to know if you enjoyed it as well :)

I’ll definitely post an update! I’m looking forward to the new experience
