I am about 1/4th through, and it's interesting to see how connected this is with Cosmere, unlike the first 3 books. I think this book should be read after you have read at least 1 book of The Stormlight Archive. Looking forward to seeing if we learn anything else in it.

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

I am about 7 chapters in to The Brothers Karamazov. I had heard a lot of good things prior to reading it and knew it was a classic, but god damn is it good. Dostoevsky is an amazing author who can make you feel the essence of the scene he’s describing.

I am glad I started reading it when I did, any earlier and I don’t think I would have the same appreciation for it.

This book is so complete. An Amazing ride. Some great characters. Enjoy it ! "The more i love humanity, the more i dislike humans". Loose translation, i ve read it in French.
