Progressed our Gloomhaven JotL campaign a bit, packed it up for mow. Think I’m going to change character next time we continue the game.

Played my third game of Aeon’s end, it was great, we barely won with one player left at 2 HP. It was great

The Reckoner by Brandon Sanderson. Not a lot of people like the series, but I always loved it, and it seemed that so many scenes were written with a visual medium in mind already, and exaggerated in a way that would work well in an animation, not in a Live-Action production.

Just started listening to Respawn by Arthur Stone because my SO wanted me to try it. Haven’t made up my mind about it yet.

Need to remember to read Frankenstein, which a friend lent to me. It’s a good book but I keep forgetting to actually read, since I mostly do audiobooks.

Really looking forward to Dungeon Crawler Carl book 6 which will come out in September I think.

If someone can recommend me a book where magic is used and studied/understood like science that would be great. I really enjoyed most of Lightbringer, Codex Alera and a lot of Brandon Sanderson’s books and I’d like to read more of this type.

For me personally it’ll be when I beat A20H with all 4 characters and get all achievements. But I think I might keep playing after that.

Malazan probably. So many people love it, and it looked like something I’d like, I even had a friend also reading it with me. I wanted to like it so much. After one and half books, I realized I couldn’t care less about what happened to any of the characters and I didn’t understand anything about the magic stuff, so I stopped reading.

Had a busy week. The two of us played two scenarios of Gloomhaven JotL. I changed from my initial tank character to Voidwarden, who’s got a buff/debuff and action granting/manipulation mechanic. She’s a lot more fun for me and I feel like she works a little better with my partner’s ranged character also. The last scenario was so close, we were 1 and 0 turns away from exhaustion when we won. Funnily enough we both got squeezed into a corner and surrounded by the boss’s summons so the boss couldn’t get to us.

Was really hoping to be able to play more of Aeon’s End but alas, the weekend went by really fast. Going to get an expansion for it next time I go to the shop.

We also tried out Bread & Fred, a video game of two penguins connected by a rope climbing a mountain. I was hoping it would be hard and rewarding like Celeste, but it was mostly fun and frustrating due to us constantly jumping at the wrong time and falling off… Would definitely recommend assist mode checkpoints if anyone else wants to try. It was a bit weird that they only supported the same input type for both, would have liked to use controller and let my SO use keyboard.

It’s a couple hours by car from where I live, so I’m probably too lazy to go…
