Welcome to year's first weekly thread! How are you all doing? And what are you book / reading related resolutions for this year?


I started Ultra-processed Food by Chris van Tulleken

Just started it, but looks like an interesting read. It's about the ultra-processed food we eat these days.

Also skimming through Ryder Caroll's The Bullet Journal Method. Read this last year (or was that year before that?) and wanted to check something but decided to skim through most of it.

Still reading The Bands of Mourning by Brandon Sanderson, 3rd book in the 2nd era of Mistborn. It was going great but didn't get to read much last week or so, should be getting back to it now.

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

Currently rereading The Exiled Queen, the second in Cinda Williams Chima's Seven Realms series (one of my favorites). I read the first just before Christmas, then took a detour to read one of my Christmas presents - Symphony of the Sojourn by Rowan Alexandria Bennett, which I positively adored. It's been a really good few weeks of reading, and I'm looking forward to continuing the Seven Realms, and then the follow up series - The Shattered Realms - after that.

My reading goal for the year is to actually track the books I read, so I can look back at the end of the year and actually remember what I read. I've downloaded the StoryGraph app to that end, now I just have to remember to use it...
