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?

I’m also listening to Well of Ascension, however this is my first time listening to the Mistborn series, as well as my first foray into Brandon Sanderson’s writing. I love the series so far.
Without spoiling anything, I’m at the part where they’ve just introduced a very mentally ill character and I’m very curious to see how the author handles this subject matter later on. Interestingly enough, I have faith in him to be respectful with the character, which is a faith I wouldn’t afford many writers without prior evidence that they’d do the subject justice.
Would recommend Mistborn to anyone who likes fantasy, complex magic systems (plural), in-depth worldbuilding, and engaging political drama.
