I've put together a collage of some books from last months What are you Reading? post. It's mostly random, but the more discussion something gets the more it stands out to me. Going forward I'm going to make a new post every month to talk about what people are reading.

Here is last months post. What are you Reading? (July 2023)

At any rate, what are you currently reading or plan to read in August?

The Bobiverse books were great. Can't wait for more. I've been reading Expeditionary Force which is where the Skippy's come from. Also Rythm of War by Brandon Sanderson.

4th book was a huge let down. Dragged on and on about really nothing.

I really enjoyed Heaven's River, but I also enjoy a slice of life book, and really liked all the world building with the otter world, I can definitely see where you are coming from though.

Fuck, Rhythm of War is awesome. I might have to go back and read the whole Stormlight series with my kids.
