Finished The Bands of Mourning by Brandon Sanderson, 3rd book in the 2nd era of Mistborn!
Read last 150 or so pages in a single sitting. Very interesting where the story is going.
After finishing it, I wanted to focus on the other books I was reading but the ending made me start the Mistborn: Secret Histories novella right away.
The novella takes place in Era 1 (at least as far as I have read) but the recommended order is after The Bands of Mourning, as mentioned at the end of the book. Pretty interesting so far.
Still Readings Ultra-processed Food by Chris van Tulleken and The Bullet Journal Method by Ryder Caroll, but at very slow pace. Going to focus on them one at a time to speed them up.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Swan Song: Robert R. Mcammon When I was much younger I stumbled upon this book, it was by far the longest book I had ever attempted to read at that age spanning nearly 900+ pages of read time. The beginning was detailed and slow to lift off but it made the rest of a book a cataclysmic domino affect. Its a post apocalyptic novel thats centered around the positive and negative forces in our society vying for the lead due to there not being any distractions or limitations anymore. Its a multiple perspective book with characters of different standpoints, backgrounds, and ages, if one character doesn’t float your fancy, theres another one that will. I continued to read for one perspective and became enveloped in another character quickly. The author does a phenomenal job at building each perspective into a final confrontation at the end. It was one of those books I just ran through, eating up the words and flipping through the pages I disconnected from reality entirely. It was such a well crafted book it broke me and I have never been able to read the same way since, I’m currently re-reading it. I just cant stay away
