Back to reading Rosemary and Rue by Seanan McGuire (first book in her October Daye urban fantasy series). Only read couple of pages, but things are setting down so should be getting back to reading more.

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

Finished Kingdoms of Death by Christopher Ruocchio - Best book in the series by a country mile. I'm a sucker for despair and KoD has tons of it.

Currently trudging through Non-Things by Byung Chul Han. I get what it's trying to say. The delivery is horrible. It's not even a translation thing. It's the way he's presenting his ideas through example after example from other literary works. Tangent after tangent. Such and so thought this and this guy said that but I present this thing and this is because in [X99] we did this. Like whoa buddy stay on track for a second. I do want to finish it. It's only 100 something pages. It's feeling like a DNF though.
