I’m finishing up The Golden Enclaves, the last of the Scholomance Series by Naomi Novik. It fulfills The Jerk with a Heart of Gold square, but in getting in to it, it also fits the LGBTQIA+ representation square. I’ve gotten started on so many great series in the last few years doing reading challenges and this year I’m going to try and get caught up with a bunch of them. I’m super excited!
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

I once tried listening to Iain Banks himself reading one of his Culture novels. Boy it’s bad. Nothing as stereotypical as “Jamaican accent”, just … weird. Little or counter-intuitive inflection, weird rhythm, and when he does an accent it’s … weird. It’s kinda cool to listen to though. I mean the man was a genius and somehow it still reflects in his reading style.
