Read Die Trying by Lee Child. Book 2 of Jack Reacher series. It was a fun book, though I wasn't fan of how passive Reacher was in most of the book, most of the action happens near the end. Was hoping for more action throughout the book. Still fun though, going to get more of these.
Now, continuing with my Mistborn re-read. Started The Well of Ascension by Brandon Sanderson. It's Book 2 in the series, and for some reason I don't recall much of what happens in this one. While I didn't recall the details of the first one either, I recalled most of the plot, for this one though, I only remember the ending, and maybe one other scene. Everything else I thought happened in 2, would happen in 3. So, looking forward to reading it and finding out!
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

There's a Midyear Bingo check-in post, do take a look. Even if you haven't started this year's Book Bingo, you can still join, as there are still 6 months remaining!
For details, you can checkout the initial Book Bingo, and it's Recommendation Post . Links are also present in our community sidebar.
Read about a book and a half more of Red Rising. Something about it makes me want to take breaks, even though I do want to see the story play out. I'm not sure if it's his writing style or the narrator, but it seems I need to read it one book at a time, which isn't my norm.
Still reading Shaye Archer book 3 on ebook, started Altered Traits as a physical book after reorganizing my bookshelves (because of the buying spree I'm hopefully almost done with? Maybe I'll share a new picture of the silliness once all my outstanding orders get here), decided to go back and do some lighter reads as audiobooks and am up to C is for Corpse in Sue Grafton's Kinsey Milhone series. I've read some in the past, but will probably just bust them out until Wind and Truth comes.
This is off topic, but I mentioned getting the Warbreaker leatherbound in a previous post, and the pictures on the store are limited.
Still waiting on the Secret Projects I ordered a week before that though lol.
Wow. It's so beautiful. I don't want it. If I had it I would want all the leatherbound versions, and I can't afford that. Don't share such pretty pictures!
There's a reason I held myself to a standalone (ish) story and not Mistborn or Stormlight lol. Though if I'd read Elantris when I ordered it might have been a tougher decision.
I probably would have stuck with Warbreaker for the purple aesthetic and because he happened to have a run of it signed available when I ordered, but even as good as Warbreaker is, Elantris might be better.
Yeah, that would be bad, getting one from a big series.
Do share if (when?) you get them.
lol I just bought the regular hardcovers for the rest. (Except secret projects, which I'm still waiting on, because they're cheaper and I think the mass market hardcovers are a lot worse.) Hopefully that limits the urge.
If I win the lottery or something, though, you'd better believe I'll buy everything they have lol. Because they're a work of art.
Pretty much everything but the secret projects now
Nice! This looks a lot prettier than my bookcase 😀
