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 hope you enjoy it. At this point, having read it every year for like 20 years, I must conclude that it is my favourite book. That being said, Tolkien's writing, especially the slower pacing, is definitely not everyone's cup of tea, so don't feel bad if you just can't get into it. There's plenty of other great books to read.
