Started The Bands of Mourning by Brandon Sanderson, 3rd book in the 2nd era of Mistborn.

It's fun to read the antics of Wayne. Probably the most fun character in the book.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Currently reading Penric's Demon by Lois McMaster Bujold. I'm glad I'm reading it after The Curse of Chalion, since that provides a lot of context the novella format doesn't have space for.

Finished The Ways of Khrem by D. Nathan Hilliard (secondary world urban fantasy mystery adventure novella collection) | bingo: short HM, x of y, steppin' up HM

A master thief turned honest bookseller is strongarmed into helping a Captain of the Watch solve cases.

At first I was kind of whelmed by this, as the world and characters felt very generic (maybe a nod to classic stuff I haven't read?); nevertheless, I thoroughly enjoyed it by the end. I would have put a sequel on my TBR, except there isn't one. D:
