Still reading Shadows of Self by Brandon Sanderson. Book 2 of second era of Mistborn.

Just a few pages remaining now, would've finished it, but kid got a book from his school library, and wanted me to read it too, so reading Gangsta Granny by David Williams.

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

Alternating between fiction and non-fiction, I finished N.K. Jemisin's Broken Earth trilogy and I'm currently reading Memory for Forgetfulness by Mahmoud Darwish.

Just finished Authority by Jeff VanderMeer. Although not quite as big a mindfuck as the first novel in the series, it was still a gloriously unnerving, tense novel, and still deeply strange. Loved it.

Just started Babylon's Ashes in the Expanse series. So far a little slow to start; but then they often seem to be. I have faith that I'll get into it when it gets going.

Currently reading "Lungo la corrente" ("along the stream"). It's a nonfiction book about the impact that the fading gulf stream is having on Europe, from Azores to Svalbard, in terms of climate and biodiversity. Spoiler alert: not a reassuring read.

I don't believe it exists translated.

I'm currently listening to Educated by Tara Westover. I've also been reading The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August but I've put that on hold because I realized I'm not good at reading more that one book at the same time haha.
