    On my Kindle, I just finished re-reading Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut for the first time in probably 15 years. Helluva book, and reading it as a teenager certainly changed the heading of my moral compass. Still deciding what to read next.

    I’ve also been re-reading my paper copy of This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. It warms my gay little heart.

    I’m currently halfway through The Last Echo of the Lord of Bells by John Bierce, as well as procrastinating starting Waybound by Will Wight. Progression Fantasy is my thing right now.

      I love the idea of progression fantasy I generally enjoy it in different mediums like web novels or Manhua, I’ve read a couple series I believe could be considered PF like The Demon Accords, Cycle of Arawn, etc… and thoroughly enjoyed them. Do you have any recommendations for some series to read through?

        Honestly the only two progression fantasy series that I can recommend are Cradle by Will Wight, and The Immortal Great Souls by Phil Tucker.

        Warformed: Stormweaver is also great, but only the first book, Iron Prince, is out.

    (Audiobooks) I’ve recently finished book 2 of the Mistborn series - The Well of Ascension. Otherwise i’m trying to get myself through book 2 of the Temeraire series - Throne of Jade. I’m torn, it may be that the narrator is killing it for me, or there’s just not enough action for a dragon based story.

      Mistborn is such a good series!

      I mostly prefer to read over audiobooks as my head narrator is often a lot better than audiobooks narrators.
