This was a nice week for book reading. Don’t usually get this much time generally.

Finished The Last White Man by Mohsin Hamid. I didn’t like the writing style initially but got used to as I read along. It’s a small book, just a little more than 100 pages. An umm… interesting read.

Got my copy of The Frugal Wizard’s Handbook for Surviving Medieval England by Brandon Sanderson. Really liked the book. It was a fun, light book. There was much less action than I was expecting, after reading the announcement of the book, but that didn’t make book any less enjoyable. Finished the book in two days, which I rarely get to do now.

Grave Peril by Jim Butcher. Book 3 of Dresden Files. I have just started it, but it’s the same Dresden Files. Nothing to say about that.

What have you been reading?

    Just finished Shadows Linger by Glen Cook. Was a bit frustrating that the first half was more of a crime thriller than the milfic of the first book, but the back half was a great ride.

      Nice! I have got the first three books, but haven’t started the series yet. How are you liking it overall?

        So far so good! They set up a really ambitious world with an eye for the long game, and I appreciate seeing the military/mercenary perspective.
