Finished Mistborn: Secret Histories novella. Don't want to spoil, but it was really exciting to read this secret history.

Read Redshirts by John Scalzi. A sci-fi about the "redshirts" in a Star-Trek like universe. Highly recommended for any Star Trek fan.

Started Rosemary and Rue by Seanan McGuire. First book in her October Daye urban fantasy series. This is my first Seanan McGuire book, have heard a lot about her.

Still skimming through The Bullet Journal Method by Ryder Caroll.

Putting Ultra-processed Food by Chris van Tulleken on hold for a bit, shouldn't have started multiple non-fiction at once. Will pick it up after finishing the Bullet Journal Method.

Finished "Bill the galactic hero and the planet of the robot slaves" by Harry Harrison. Liked it enough to read some more by the same writer, so am now reading "Star smashers of the Galaxy Rangers". It's ok, but at times it's actually hilariously over the top. I've actually read this book decades ago, but I must have been very young at the time because I don't remember it being a satire.
