Still reading Whispers Underground by Ben Aaronovitch. Book 3 of Rivers of London series.

Nothing much to talk about it yet.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

I finished off A Sunlit Man and honestly it was probably the worst Sanderson book I've listened to. Not to say it is bad per se but it was a bit of a slog to get through. I enjoyed the link with Stormlight and tie ins with the cosmere but by the end of it it sort of ruined my enthusiasm for books in general for a bit and I've been listening to more music this past week consequently. I can't even really put my finger on what I found so boring about it but there you go.

I'll go back to some Deathlands this week I think but mostly I think music will be on heavy rotation instead.

I agree that it's my least favourite of all 4 secret novel books.
