The Ace Attorney manga (Miles Edgeworth). It's a bit goofy, but I looove it.
I also grabbed a random book about she sheds from the library. Idk why...just thought it would be interesting. I don't think I NEED a she shed, but I just like looking at pretty designs lol.

I’m reading Peach Tree Blossom by Mellisa Fu. The amount of family journey novels I’ve read throughout the past few years has given me serious burnout. This one is pretty good, but I get exhausted every time I read it. Maybe I need a break from the genre?
I just finished reading The Great Hunt, the second book in the Wheel of Time series. While this book had its ups and downs for me, the last 200 pages or so were amazing. A much more climactic ending than the first book.
Some chapters in the middle that switched from Rand's POV to other side characters got a bit boring for me. We don't see enough of those characters, so when it suddenly jumps to them because we as the reader need to know something that Rand does not know it feels forced and I struggle to even remember who that person is at first. I'm not talking about the chapters written from Nynaeve or Egwene or Perrin's POV. I love those and would like to see more of them. I'm referring to characters like the ship captain or the Children of the Light.
I also still get a bit annoyed at the harem that Rand is building. I don't see why almost every girl has to fall for him. It's getting a bit ridiculous. But I was also really and truly happy that this time the girls put together a rescue of their own and didn't need Rand to save them. They even make a point of telling him so. It's nice to see them taking care of themselves much like they did in season 1 of the TV series.
The introduction of the damane stirs a lot of emotions and I think it could create some powerful storylines in the coming books.

Resident Night Mare
The Queen of Camelot by Nancy McKenzie. It's actually two books in one. They were originally published as The Child Queen and The High Queen, because it was thought the length was too long for one book (the author's original intention).

I've started reading Mort, the 4th book in the Discworld series by Terry Pratchett. I haven't gotten too far yet but it seems like it will be fun. Death is a great character!
I’m reading I Hate You - Don’t Leave Me by Jerold J. Kreisman. I already know a decent amount about the condition since I’ve known a few people with it, but it’s still interesting reading about the stories the writer describes. The book definitely has a negative slant though. The condition does sound very difficult to live with, but the writer adding their opinions does make the work feel less professional.
