I've put together a collage of some books from last months What are you Reading? post. It's mostly random, but the more discussion something gets the more it stands out to me. Going forward I'm going to make a new post every month to talk about what people are reading.

Here is last months post. What are you Reading? (July 2023)

At any rate, what are you currently reading or plan to read in August?

Finally picked up The Gunslinger by Stephen King after wanting to get into the series for a while. It's engrossing (and more brutal than I expected) so far, can't wait to find out what all the hubbub is about the ending.

Many people didn't like it, but I though book 4 (wizard and glass) was the best.

Wizard and Glass is where I fell off the series, didn’t end up getting far in that one. Although I think it had less to do with that particular book and more of the fatigue of trudging through the books for a few fantastic moments. I enjoyed The Drawing of Three but man it felt like it could’ve been about 30% shorter at times

I thought Wizard and Glass was a level changer. Up to that point, I was enjoying the series but after reading book 4 I was absolutely floored. My fav of the series.
