Rajesh is 60% done with The Hero of Ages (Mistborn, #3)
Good ol' Brandon - more of the same. But in a good way. I now see that huge chunks of Stormlight Archive are remixes of this series. But it was all supposed to fit together so no big surprise (or blame) there.

Oh Sanderson... this appears to be the one where his editor gave up on brevity.

Rajesh is on page 50 of 352 of The Husbands
Bit of a slog; we'll see if I get to the 51% threshold that I'm willing to review a book.

Subversively darling is the way I feel about this book so far. In a good way.

Ramble? Wide scope? I haven't decided yet.

Rajesh
Rajesh is 60% done with House Rules : A Novel in Stories (Wild Cards, #34)
Promising. They seem to have found the right mix - a unique locale that less mysterious elements combine with a mix of old and new characters. Willing to kill some old ones too!

Rajesh
Rajesh is 14% done with Stuck: How the Privileged and the Propertied Broke the Engine of American Opportunity
(not the Kindle version, but an e-version)

Entertaining tale so far; lots of social history I didn't know so far on "Moving Day" and such traditions.

Rajesh is reading Mistborn: The Final Empire (Mistborn, #1)
Fun enough. Junk food for the mind, but well cooked.

Rajesh
Rajesh is on page 982 of 1344 of Wind and Truth (The Stormlight Archive, #5)
Not since Dance to the Music of Time or perhaps Swann's Way have I felt so good skipping several pages of a book over and over again just to get to the end.

Rajesh
Rajesh is 73% done with Fourth Wing (The Empyrean, #1)
I'm invoking my "I can rate it if I read 51%" rule and stopping. I was curious about the genre. It's not novel. It's mature YA.

And now I know after chapter 30. Stopping here, unrated.

Future me: don't read more.

Broken up by era and country. OK so far. Hope it helps with Learnedleague.com.

Rajesh
Rajesh is finished with Truman
Wonderful work.

Detailed, yet breezy. Narrative strong, yet leaves the reader to decide Truman strengths and foibles on their own.
