I just can't donate. Credit card doesn't work (it works normally on other vendors), Google pay puts out a mistake and Venmo isn't available in EU. I tried calling my bank but gave up after being on hold for 30 minutes...

Haven't heard the story about how he got the rights for selling leatherbounds of his books, that was super interesting.

Somebody said in book club discussion that the rest of the book feels like a setup for codas.

Discworld books are great for commute. With a caveat that other people in public transit look at you funny when you start laughing out loud.

I'm currently reading A Thief Of Time on my commute.

Thanks for the link, a really interesting interview with Sanderson on more of a business side of publishing.

I just finished SP3 and Redshirts for the book club. It was great on a re-read and I'm really looking forward to the meeting on Sunday. First half of the book is quite different to the second part and I was quite poker-face in last week's meeting as I didn't want to give anything away. That Coda 2 though...

As of what I'm actually reading right now - Pratchett's Thief of Time as my commute audiobook and I'm reading Memory's Legion (short stories collection from Expanse universe).

Thank you, I was confused and then annoyed at myself for not figuring it out.

At least there shouldn't be delays with this one as was with first two secret project books.

Oh cremposting, I missed it :D

I was excited for them all. Well, slightly less for SP2 as I already read Yankee at King Arthur's court and found it fine but nothing earth-shattering.

My wife preferred it to Tress though which was a suprise to me as even on a re-read Tress is amazing.
