Not much change at my end. A bit further in the books, but still reading the same books:

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

The end of The Will of the Many really puts a spin on everything that happened prior, and The Strength of the Few runs with it and it's insane. I don't know how Islington does this, his books are amazingly paced and plotted.

I have to admit, I had to take periodic breaks while reading Strength, no spoilers, but it's extremely involved with separate concurrent plots that are all in depth.

    Yeah I listen to audiobooks and the interweaving plotlines with similarly named characters is confusing

    Trying to remain spoiler free here, but how does the audio book handle the… context switching, shall we say, when there’s a perspective change? I’m curious since I recommended the series to my wife who also enjoys audio books.

    On the written novel there was a icon below the chapter header to signify.
