Reading Fated by Benedict Jacka, first book in his urban fantasy series Alex Verus.

It is interesting to see how different Alex is from Dresden, both are very different kind of mages, though both have their own issues with their respective councils.

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

He does get to the depths of the human condition so well and describe it in such a relatable way. I'm sorry to hear you felt that way at the time though. Hope you're doing alright now

Thanks for the good wishes. Yes I am better now having exited an abusive childhood. Being an independent adult has been a blessing to me♥️
