    I'm reading Women Who Run With Wolves

    I just started it and I'm bracing myself for a bunch of heteronormativity and bioessentialism, haven't found it yet but have found a bunch of Jungian psychology stuff which I'm not really into so we'll see if I keep going with it. I think there will be some gems though.

    My brother just gave me a short novel by Stephen King called Later so I'll be starting that before sleeping
    I've been thinking about re-reading Dune to watch the movies but will probably wait a bit closer to the next movie release.

    Currently reading: The President is Missing by Bill Clinton & James Patterson

    And I have a very hefty list of books to read after this one, I keep buying more but not really making time to read them.

    On my list;

    • Guns of Dawn - Adrian Tchakovsky
    • Seven Ancient Wonders - Matthew Reilly
    • Shantaram - Gregory David Roberts
    • To Kill A Mockingbird - Harper Lee
    • The Body - Bill Bryson
    • The President's Desk - Shaun Micallef
    • Last King of the Cross - John Ibrahim
    • Working Class Man - Jimmy Barnes



    There's probably more I can't think of. I'm pretty sure I lent a book to my sister in law too that is on my list. Lots of reading to do!

    Anybody into LitRPG kinds of books? I forget which one initially got me interested in the genre, but I've been steadily reading through different series for the past year or two now.

    I find it interesting to see the characters progress in a measurable fashion. Gaining abilities, strengths, etc as the plot progresses. The only downside is when I find a series that I really enjoy and then have to wait for the next book to come out.

    Right now I'm on the third book in a series called The Grand Game.

    Do you enjoy audiobooks? I find my mind wandering too much to pay proper attention.

    LitRPG is interesting. If you like action, magic, maybe a touch of sci fi then you may like it!

    I do like audiobooks! My mind definitely wanders here and there, but it's easy to rewind a minute or two. I like them especially during mindless tasks like chores. It's hit or miss with readers though, a good audiobook reader makes a huge difference.

    I don't overly read too much (Due to adhd/the attention span of a fly) but I do love to read this book. If I recall I think its the 2nd book in the series? I know I've seen all the movies (but never read most of the books - I really want to as I don't think they're gonna make the final movie based off the books)
