I figured we could have a casual thread to talk about what we're reading. That's the main part of literature after all, in a way. I'll make a start in the comments; feel free to post something!

Currently reading The Body Keeps the Score and having to stop repeatedly as I recognize symptoms and sort of have to process that and deal with it. I need to push through the difficult parts and get to the part on treatment, which takes up the back half of the book. I'm hoping I can come with a plan for reconnecting with people. I'm so tired of being lonely and afraid of other people.
Recently re-read Long Way to a Small Angry Planet as a comfort read and appreciating it more this time around, seeing all the subtle hints about this and that laid out I didn't see the first time. I really enjoyed the entire Wayfarers series.
Next up I think I'll get back on the Bas-Lag trilogy by China Mieville. I enjoyed Perdido Street Station and I'm moving on to The Scar I'm prepared for a gut-wrenching read, since that's usually how it goes with his stuff. I hope the quirky outcast character I fall in love with doesn't get horribly mangled too badly, or whatever he's going to do to me this time.
