William added a status update

Hey everyone, I’ve been finishing my studies so I have not been doing much reading other than chapters of textbooks and journal articles. I added a bunch of books (fiction and rule books for a tabletop game I like) which I’ll write full reviews of in a bit, but I can’t right now (I finished the whole Expanse series in under 2 weeks, so much fun but that’s a lot of reviews!) Gotta work on my 100+ book backlog now!
