reading
I generally read a lot of high-fantasy, as is evident from my Sanderson streaks. For 2022 (and now 2023), I’m switching it up a bit and picking up books from varied genres and authors to try and expand my interests.
I’ve obviously read a lot more than this, but I can’t remember beyond 2020.
