“weekly thread” was clearly a lie

Not fantasy; I am reading The Brothers Karamazov. I am now at around 25% mark. An interesting love triangle seems to have developed involving Alyosha’s brothers Ivan, Dimitri and Dimitri’s fiance. Dimitri has made a mess of things and poor Alyosha’s trying to help by mediation.

Just finished the second book in the Broken Earth trilogy. It has been pretty good so far :D

Heart-breaking and soul-flaying, but yes: very, very good. The third book puts such a beautiful cherry atop the whole series.

I keep telling myself to read more N.K. Jemisin, but I keep not wanting to be depressed.

Not reading anything Fantasy right now. Unless we count manga, in that case, reading JuJutsu Kaisen. Just started it. Liking it so far.

We also have a weekly thread (not a lie) at /c/books@lemmy.world. You’re all welcome to join in on the discussion. It’s about all books, so everything from Fantasy, sci-fi, romance, non-fiction, text books, all are welcome!

Pirateaba dropped 80K on their Patreon this week so working my way through that.

Still need to finish Yumi and the Nightmare Painter too. Its another on of Hoid’s tales so I really should get to it.

Oooh. I loved Tress of the Emerald Sea. It was very refreshing style, if Yumi and the Nightmare Painter is anything similar, it’s going to be great too.

I think Tress is my favourite Brando Sando book. Its just so whimsical and you can tell how much he tried to vary from his normal style.

I’ve been reading Tress with my 9-year-old, and she loves it. While his longer books have worn me down, it’s fun to introduce her to Sanderson.
