Finished The Bands of Mourning by Brandon Sanderson, 3rd book in the 2nd era of Mistborn!

Read last 150 or so pages in a single sitting. Very interesting where the story is going.

After finishing it, I wanted to focus on the other books I was reading but the ending made me start the Mistborn: Secret Histories novella right away.

The novella takes place in Era 1 (at least as far as I have read) but the recommended order is after The Bands of Mourning, as mentioned at the end of the book. Pretty interesting so far.

Still Readings Ultra-processed Food by Chris van Tulleken and The Bullet Journal Method by Ryder Caroll, but at very slow pace. Going to focus on them one at a time to speed them up.

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

Finished Skunk Works (About the Lockheed advanced research team) by Ben Rich, and The Brendan Voyage by Tim Severin (about an adventure to test if an Irish leather boat could have made it to North america past the Faroes, Iceland, and Greenland.). I'm starting Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree. I've read Bookshops and Bonedust already, and the other book of the three is on hold at the library but I'm number 15 in line.
