It has been a while. I have been pretty, and haven't been around much.

As for the books, I am still in the same place, reading Book 2 of Confederation The Better Part of Valour by Tanya Huff. Though I did spend some time reading a web novel, Book Eater, author is 메켄로 and translator is RainbowTurtle.

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

That's interesting about the creative control. I did notice the books getting better but didn't know about the impact of publisher interference. Do you have any more info on what sort of things the publisher was pushing for? I'm scared to search for it because of the abundance of spoilers (I'm only on book 5).
