I almost forgot the weekly thread again, so just putting it up, will post my updates later.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

I just finished book 1. While I didn’t find it hilarious, I am interested in the overall message of the series that I feel like is going to be a slow burn. Overall looking forward to reading more as the series is light hearted.
I need to start reading Red Rising again! I stopped at some point in the third book, but really loved that series as well.
You’re dead inside. /s
I like the world building in red rising. It’s very derivative of brave new world, but super fleshed out and the solar system really feels huge and alive. I did NOT like that it’s a ridiculous rollercoaster. Every good thing must be immediately followed by the worst thing to happen in the series, repeated ad infinitum. I stuck with it because the story is compelling but holy shit does it get rough.
