Book update
Finished "Before they are Hanged" by Joe Abercrombie. Good middle-book. Lands a bit flat but carried well, well set up for the end. Starting Tad Williams's "The Dragonbone Chair" since I'm sunsetting Abercrombie's series in one more book.
It's um,... a bit jarring to go from cynical backstabbing to whimsical tale starring a young hopeful teenage lad, but rather than shun it for more hopeful and optimistic outlooks(which ain't happening), I'm trudging on with the hope it grows with maturity as the protagonist ages, if Simon even is the protagonist - NO SPOILERS.
On the backburner, and why I refuse to watch the film right now, is Andy Weir's "Hail Mary". I'm halfway done, but it keeps getting sidetracked by the fantasy novels... and...
Last night I read "Careless People..." by Sarah Wynn-Williams, in pseudo-entirety, a biography from a leading Facebook executive. I skipped a lot of info dumps I already knew from other sources, but a lot I did not know, especially anything pre-2016. I'm 38, but I wasn't politically "engaged" until around 2015.
So that's that!
no Sanderson!? No PRATCHETT?!
Not yet, not yet, but maybe soon. I only have two eyes, you know. 😊
