Siege and Storm, Leigh Bardugo -- the first half of this book was exciting with surprise! pirates, the second half was more angsty and love-polygon-y.

Ruin and Rising, Leigh Bardugo -- last book of the trilogy, I've just started it, so far a reasonable ratio of action to angst.

Cymbeline, William Shakespeare. Readaloud (the second time we've done this play during the pandemic) -- it's fun watching new people discover the plot of this one. It's a good play, long, but just *so much happens*, and the language is good -- well, apart from the ghosts who speak in ballad meter, still don't know what to make of them, but it's just a short WTF episode. Posthumus is kind of useless, but everyone else in the play makes up for it.

O, Cymbeline!!! 'I will put all these offcuts into one play, shake together and there you are!'
