Still reading What If? by Randall Munroe.

A very entertaining read, could've finished by now, but reading it slow so that I can understand some of the science. More than halfway through.

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

I'm starting Winter's Heart, the ninth book of The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan. I'm actually looking forward to this, since I liked the previous book. It felt like things were finally happening and moving along, characters even got some character development! Let's see if that keeps up.

You might be coming out of the slog! But maybe there's a bit more to go. I love the series but it definitely has some issues, one of them being pacing.

Yeah, you are over the "middle slog", though the tenth book is once again a bit weird.
