Let's try this as a 'Link' this week; it seems 'Thread' and 'Photo' posts aren't being created correctly and aren't federating.

I'm still on the same 2 physical books as last week, but I have a new audiobook I've started on.

[Physical]
The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy Ultimate Collection - Douglas Adams
Just about done working my way back through this series. Another week or two and it'll be back on the shelf for a while. Such a fun journey to go through once in a while though.

The Way Of Kings - Brandon Sanderson
I'm within 100 pages of finishing this tome. This is a long book (and the sequel is longer!), but it's so good. I can't believe I haven't torn through Sanderson stuff sooner - between this series and the Mistborn series, he is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors.

[Audio]
A Spy Among Friends - Ben Macentyre
This is an interesting nonfiction about a British intelligence officer named Kim Philby who turned out to be a Soviet spy. It's pretty good so far.
