Welcome to year's first weekly thread! How are you all doing? And what are you book / reading related resolutions for this year?

I started Ultra-processed Food by Chris van Tulleken

Just started it, but looks like an interesting read. It's about the ultra-processed food we eat these days.

Also skimming through Ryder Caroll's The Bullet Journal Method. Read this last year (or was that year before that?) and wanted to check something but decided to skim through most of it.

Still reading The Bands of Mourning by Brandon Sanderson, 3rd book in the 2nd era of Mistborn. It was going great but didn't get to read much last week or so, should be getting back to it now.

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

For details on the c/Books bingo challenge that just restarted for the year, you can checkout the initial Book Bingo, and its Recommendation Post. Links are also present in our community sidebar.

I'm around one third into Crossroads of Twilight, book 10 of the Wheel of Time -series by Robert Jordan. The consensus seems to be that this book is a sort of low point in the series, but so far it's been ok. Still full of Jordan's typical bullshit, but ok. Got to take the bad with the good. I do hope the next book, the last one before he died, picks up the pace at last.
