Had a pretty busy work week, hardly got time to read anything. So still on The Sunlit Man by Brandon Sanderson.

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

Just finished Adrian Tchaikovsky's "Service Model" after really enjoying "Children of Time." Fun, as this was a rare book that I and my sweetheart read at the same time, so we had fun talking about it. Not mind blowing, but very fun and with a loveable main character.

I am really struggling to read Umberto Eco's "Name of the Rose." If anyone can give me a pep talk I'd actually appreciate it, but the incredibly long introduction set me back. I'm starting to pick up some Holmes/Watson vibes which I am tentatively enjoying, but motivation is low...

Which is why I am here looking for a new book!
