I am in the US reading The Dark Lord’s Guide to Dating (and Other War Crimes) by Tiffany Hunt. It’s a tongue-in-cheek romantasy.
not going to lie, started writing my answer with things like ‘kleenex box, glasses case since the kittens try to chew on my glasses still, etc’ before I realized what you’re actually looking for. Long days are long!

I am working on a re-read of “The Hobbit” by J.R.R. Tolkien. I am in the USA. There is nothing on top of my nightstand unless my cat is laying there. She insists on shoving off anything I set there, because apparently that is the best place to nap and look out the window. Books, alarm clock, lamp, phone, even folded pajamas, all end up on the floor.
From the US, re reading The Protectors War from the Dies the Fire series by S.M. Stirling. Some days you just need a good mass apocalypse. 😉
I’m currently listening to TKWNKM and reading Death Waits at Dead Rock by Sara Bourgeois on my iPad. (alternating between them—I have tried reading while listening to an audio book, but it never works out. 😀 Listening to audio books while spinning, knitting, weaving, cooking, gardening works much better.)
Oops—forgot to add I’m from Canada with fingers crossed for the e version.

Maggie and A Curse of Beasts and Magic are the only reason I stayed sane this past semester in college. Between biochem and physics 2, I was struggling to function as a human and these books gave me life. They were definitely a huge blessing to my life. Thank you dear Author Lords. Many thanks.

recently finished Metal Slinger and waiting for the sequel to come from the library
Commenting from Australia. I am rereading Beast Business because I love the Hidden Legacy world (and Innkeeper world and Kate’s world and Inheritance world and ….)so rereads / relistens keep me going between new stories. I have read Jeanine Frost books before and enjoyed them though I do prefer an Arland type vampire to a Bones type vampire. I note this appears to be a new direction for her so I am keen to delve in and see if I can add another series to follow.
After a long hiatus after finishing The Fellowship of the Ring, I am currently on Chapter 2 of The Two Towers. This Tolkien guy is not too bad; we should keep an eye on him! From the US <3

Kingdom of Flesh and Fire, by Jennifer Amentrout. United States. My nightstands currently includes a lamp, two puzzle books, cat treats, and multiple chargers. Normally it also has my Kindle on it but that’s been following me around room to room as I’m on a bit of reading & listening binge since TKWNKM in March.
For those who haven’t read Jennifer Amentrout’s series, this is my first time read of the series and I’m enjoying it so far (little twilight-ish though). Reading book after book is helping my book hangover after TKWNKM and ACOBAM.
This feels like a great year for books so far.
