Just finished Children of Time. Excellent opening to this series. Now onto the next book.

read that a few months ago as well. fantastic, 5/5. havent read the rest of the series yet but have read elder race, ogres, and am reading dogs of war atm by tchaikovsky. All are good but much shorter and less encompassing than children of time. ill read ruin soon

The world building has been excellent. And I didn't see the end of book 1 coming. I'm a few chapters into book 2. I will probably knock out some more on night shift if it's slow at the hospital tonight.

Still counts and you are probably reading more than the majority of people.

I mean traditionalists might say it’s cheating but if that’s your way of comprehension then do you.

I read a lot, but want to try some audiobooks when out riding the bike or running. Change it up from music all the time.

ive only recently tried listening to audiobooks. i lose focus too easily on most of what i've tried. Two that have worked well for me, i think because ive already watched the motion picture adaptations, are Dune and Game of Thrones. both audiobooks were fantastic. The first season of the show was pretty true to the first book, so it was like reliving a great season. And Dune was similar with the movies having some significant deviations, but the audiobook i listened to was greatly produced with multiple voice actors and very fitting audio effects.

The only new material i really enjoyed and was able to maintain attention for so far was Education by Tara Westover.

In the past month-ish I've read over two dozen books. I had a friend give me an old Kindle and it's been great (got too expensive to buy everything I wanted, but I will still purchase books in series I've already started to collect). I've really gotten into Isekea and LitRPG's.

Will start William Hope Hodgeson's "House On The Borderland" when it gets here, a late Xmas gift in the mail.

Heard a lot of good things about it, in that fantasy/Cosmic Doom genre.
