Almost done with The Slain Divine by David Dalglish and just started The Kill Society by Richard Kadrey.
Just finished the entire Frieren manga that was published so far, finished in all in one, interrupted sitting while I recovered from wisdom teeth removal. Very solid.
Here's what I finished in March. An uneven month, but it wasn't that bad.That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon ★★★
Caliban's War ★★★★★
Gods of Risk ★★
My friends have been wanting me to read A Court of Thorns and Roses for a long time now so I finally decided to start it. We'll see how it goes!
Started The City of Marble and Blood, the second in Howard Andrew Jones' Hanuvar series. And I'm also working through an ARC of Adventures of Mary Jane by Hope Jahren. (The Mary Jane in question being the one who first appeared in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.)

Glad to hear you enjoyed it.
I finished The Spirit Thief. It was fun and I already jumped into the next book, The Spirit Rebellion.
Here's what I finished in April.Esrahaddon ★★★★
Daughter of Moloka'i ★★★★
The Spirit Thief ★★★★
I also just finished another book today: Defiant. Pretty satisfying end to the series.
Tonight I will start reading The Dark Throne by Jocelyn A. Fox , this is the 3rd in the Fae War Chronicles. The first 2 were really good so I got my hopes up.
Just finished The Magicians, starting on Six of Crows next.

I just finished The Spirit Rebellion. An even better book than the first, but equally fun. On to the third: The Spirit Eater.
I just bought a beat up copy of Mistborn from a secondhand book store as I’m pretty new to any type of adult fantasy. My boyfriend has been recommending it for years so I gave it a shot and it might just be the best fictional work I’ve ever had the privilege of reading. I’m on The Well of Ascension now and I’m so excited!

I see a number of series in your list, Elise. How do you (and others) keep track of which series you're reading and where you're up to?

If you mean the order of books, I use a website called https://www.fantasticfiction.com/ Otherwise, I just shelve every book on Goodreads.

I shelve everything on Goodreads, but we also have a challenge where you can make your own thread and list ☺️
After spending almost a month on The Pillars of the Earth, I'm preparing to ... spend almost a month on World Without End.

I read it over the Summer holidays when it came out. I enjoyed it but I'm waiting on the others now as I'll never remember what happens between... Aren't there supposed to be ten?

Eventually. From what I've heard though, the first five are a completed story I think.
Just started The Thousand Orcs by R.A. Salvatore. Not even 10% in we've already seen a wagon attacked by orcs and a couple of frost giants!
I finished The Spirit Eater. Things are getting more complicated, but it's still fun. On to The Spirit War.
finishing up The Red Knight by Miles Cameron. pretty solid, though there's lots of battle scenes
