I am reading mangas these days. Read first 4 volumes of Attack on Titans, but since I am reading these through 3-in-1 omnibus, going to read till 6th volume at least. Will decide the next book after that.

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

I'm listening to:

Couriers Outbound The Wandering Inn, Book 19 By: pirateaba

https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=The+Wandering+Inn

https://wanderinginn.com/

I listen to a LOT of audiobooks (+60 last year). This is one of my all time favorite series. The worldbuilding is on par with Discworld.

If i had one complaint, its that the author has TOO MANY plotlines. Which i think is a common problem with Royal Road books.

The wandering inn is still on my "to try" list, but I always get discouraged when I see the page count of the first book whenever I'm looking for something new to read. Maybe I'll try after summer.

You aint lying, I cant imagine the page count! Its a massive series. But I listen to the audiobooks and I cherish every moment. The latest book is something like 48 hours.

I dont think there is a book I look forward to more than The Wandering Inn. I think the first book is something special! The author is still getting around a couple small rough points in their writing, but the story is just amazing. I envy people reading it for the first time.
