Finished What If? by Randall Munroe.

Highly recommended for people who like science, and fun.

I'm about halfway through the Farseer Trilogy by Robin Hobb. It has a vibe similar to the Kingkiller Chronicle but it has an actual conclusion to the story. So far it's been very entertaining with a story full of medieval fantasy court intrigue, a mystery of raiders turning their victims to sociopaths, and a light sprinkling of magic.

If you carry on past the first trilogy (which I highly recommend) prepare to have your heart ripped open and stamped on. No spoilers, but that boy suffers.
