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?

Just finished Trust, by Hernan Diaz. I read it without looking up at summaries or so before and at first I was a bit disappointed by the first part (and even asked myself if it would not be a dnf). But when I discovered there was 4 parts in this book, progressively revealing the facts, I told myself "what a great piece of literature it is". This is just a real performance for the author to write in 4 different style as if the part were written by different people with the key markers of each type of writing.

Just started The Whisperer, by Donato Carrisi.

From DNF to a "great piece of literature". Should add it to my list.
