I am about 1/4th through, and it's interesting to see how connected this is with Cosmere, unlike the first 3 books. I think this book should be read after you have read at least 1 book of The Stormlight Archive. Looking forward to seeing if we learn anything else in it.

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

Having recently finished Stormlight, I am very curious to read the Sunlit Man now!

I just finished Assassin of Reality by Maryna and Serhiy Dyachenko (book 2 of Vita Nostra). It honestly kind of felt like an afterthought to capitalize on the popularity of the first book. I didn't feel like it added much and preferred the open endedness of the first book.

Now I've started Wool by Hugh Howey, the first of the books the Silo show is based on. Too early to give my thoughts but the first few chapters were very closely followed in the show.

Hm, interesting. I wasn't sure I'd like it at first, but I jammed through Vita Nostra, and didn't realize there were already published sequels until a few days ago, when I immediately moved them to the top of my TBR pile. I'll try to lower my expectations to be more in line with reality--thanks for the heads-up!
