Still reading The Well of Ascension by Brandon Sanderson. Book 2 in the series. I am more than halfway through, so should be able to finish it this week.

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

The story is heavily rooted in LGBTQIA+ community/culture, and the experience of existing as a gay person at the time. There's a bit of romance, as well.

To be clear, though: despite its historical bones and the very real fears of its characters, this isn't a cruel book. No slurs or anything so far, and even the police raids at clubs have been mild.
