I'm starting to drop off, not gonna lie...

I might've accidentally started numbing out to this book, but my husband can't remember the story either to ask me where I'm at in the book and outing myself. I'm still enjoying what little I'm picking up on, though.

Reading Order:
Masters of Death by Olivie Blake (406 pages) [A book pre-existing in my kindle library]
Alchemised by SenLinYu (1030 pages) [Book Page magazine recommendation]
Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson (1007 pages) [I really want to read through the Cosmere universe].

Listening Order:
Wolf of the North Series (32 hours) [Husband rec I'm enjoying].
Dungeon Crawler Carl (80 hours)[Everyone rec].

This is both cute and weird at the same time, so far.

I didn't anticipate enjoying this book as much as I have been; so much so, that I didn't realize until yesterday that I was already over halfway through the book. It's been easy to pop on during my drive home or while doing chores. It could be because I've started to become too use to listening to longer books, and usually by this time in other stories I'm only a quarter of the way through.

Trying to finish this book feels like those dreams where you're running towards something and it keeps moving further and further away...

Another recommendation from my husband that feels much like the first one so far, in that he--much like "Society of the Sword"--is weak and working towards becoming a fighter while falling for his lady friend. I do like that this one is being told like a story being told to a group of kids, because that's kind of fun.

It's getting ⭐ domestic ✨

Anna Karenina quotes out of context that slap:

"...he looked as fresh as a big shiny green Dutch cucumber." 🥒

"What a stupid piece of beef!" 🍖

"Mostly you argue heatedly only because you can't make out what your opponent wants to prove." 👀

My goal is to read 91 pages today. For the grind.

I have a 6 hour trip tomorrow, let's see how far I can get before I even start vacay...

How is there gonna be two more books in this series? Obviously I couldn't put it down today, but it is all starting to read the same.
