Started The Bands of Mourning by Brandon Sanderson, 3rd book in the 2nd era of Mistborn.

It's fun to read the antics of Wayne. Probably the most fun character in the book.

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

I just finished Isabella Nagg and the Pot of Basil, Oliver Darkshire, which was pretty enjoyable. Overall it leaned very into the satire side of fantasy. Felt nicely inspired by Pratchett. Lots of footnotes. My only criticism is that the plot felt wobbly, without real direction. Even though, I'd recommend it!

Started What Feasts at Night, T. Kingfisher which I'm enjoying so far.
