Finished Jujutsu Kaisen Vol 1. It’s pretty fun, going to keep reading rest of the volumes.

Finished The Bullet Journal Method by Ryder Carroll. The book is divided in 4 parts, 1st part deals with the general introduction and why it’s needed, 2nd part is about the actual Bullet Journal method. 3rd part is more of a self-help, and productivity mixed up. Mainly talking about mindfulness and intentional living, using bullet journal. I usually don’t read books like these, but found parts of it useful (maybe because I don’t read books like these?). Though at times it felt like it’s making bullet journal to be some kind of way to live life, but that could be just because I am not used to such books. Overall, liked the book, would be useful in making me more productive.

Read The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman. It’s first book of the series. I enjoyed it quite a lot, going to get the rest of the books and read them. I think the 4th one just came out recently.

Reading Summer Knight by Jim Butcher. The 4th book in The Dresden Files. Not much to say about it yet.

What about all of you? What have you been reading?

    The book that really got me started reading fantasy is also arguably a “school for magic” book from long before it was a trope. A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K Le Guin is a classic.

    Gladstone is definitely still writing stuff. The Craft Sequence series is done at 6 books, but there is a new trilogy called The Craft Wars that is meant to wrap up the whole universe. The 1st book Dead Country came out in March with book 2 slated for April 2024 per fantasticfiction.com

      Ah, it has been too long since I read the Earthsea books, I recall there was magic school, but don’t recall how much of the book was about that. Maybe that means I need to re-read the books 😀
