I read The Wager a few months back. I enjoyed it. If you’re looking for something else in that vane you might try Batavia by Peter  FitzSimons.
I am currently rereading Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy. It’s a great read, but a little dark.

Just finished "Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow" by Gabrielle Devin and currently reading"The Code Book" by Simon Singh.
I just finished Lieutenant Hornblower and am thoroughly enjoying the series. I’ll be starting Hornblower and the Hotspur soon.
Just started raft by Stephen Baxter, little concerned when I found out there are a dozen more books, roughly.
Digging the first though, so...
Hey I have The Wager in my list, but right now I'm reading The Dawn of Everything by David Graeber, it's excellent. Going really slow because it contains so much information, I read a few pages and that sends me in a research spiral for an hour and a thoughts spirals for the day.
Dungeon Crawler Carl and Yumi and the Nightmare Painter by Sanderson
It's fucking great!
"My Heart Is A Chainsaw" by Steven Graham Jones
Currently about a third of the way through "Babel: Or, The Necessity of Violence: An Arcane History of the Translator's Rebellion" by R.F. Kuang.
It's pretty good so far, but also I'm really still waiting for the plot to kick into gear, lots of wonderful world building has been taking place so far.
Also, you and I have the same Kobo! I'm a fan of this device, and haven't read a physical book since last June.
I finished A Memory of Light (the final book in the Wheel of Time Series) and The Last Metal by Brandon Sanderson. Now I'm rereading The Lord of the Rings.
I'm also reading The Recording Engineers Handbook and Complete Vocal Technique.
Working through Perdido Street Station on my new Kobo. I understand the critiques on pacing, and spending too much time on world building as now, 400 pages in, races, sections of the city, creatures, and cultures are still being introduced. But it has been an enjoyable ride so far, especially with one of the main PoVs being one of my favorite tropes of just "scientist doing science"
