Reading Wednesday

Recently Finished

 

Mostly been scrambling to finish books due back to the library, whether it was an ebook or a physical one, which means I just finished Always and Forever, Lara Jean by Jenny Han, the conclusion to the To All the Boys I've Loved Before series. It was a charming reading, even if I did get a bit frustrated with the miscommunication between everyone. It was still a great cast of characters, and I always love seeing books set in Virginia that feel grounded in the state. 

I also read volumes three and four of The Golden Kamuy. I'm really enjoying this manga a lot. Yeah, definitely gory and violent at times, but learning about Ainu is really interesting, and I love the character dynamics, especially with the whole "this guy wanted to kill us but now he's hurt, time to bring him back to the village, where everyone immediately adopts him" bit. Can't wait to keep reading. 
 

Currently Reading

 

I'm between books at the moment, though with 20 books checked out of the library and a three-day weekend coming up this weekend, that should change.

 

What's Next

 
Whatever's due back at the library, so probably Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup by John Carreyrou and The Kingdom of Copper by S. A. Chakraborty, the second book in the Daevabad Trilogy.

I may have to check out Golden Kamuy at some point - I've read some fic without canon knowledge and really enjoyed it.

I'm really enjoying it! It definitely has a lot of violence and animal harm (LOTS of hunting and killing animals for food), fair warning, but the history and the characters are really interesting, and I can't wait to see what happens with the rest of the series.

Lots of books and a three-day weekend: bliss!
