@Mary Catelli It's a little refreshing to see someone reading a book related to Witch Hat Atelier in this group.
It's not often people read graphic novels or comics and mention here.
Strunk and White is an exciting one. I read that one way back when, and would still refer to it if I had a question of style (but, I've not looked at it in a very long while). Are you planning on writing something?I don't often read graphic novels anymore, but some I have read were top notch stories. I'd include them if I did. Secretly, I would like to see a graphic novel of my book but....its far down the road, if ever.
Closing in on the end of Divided Allegiance. Maybe today or this weekend.

I mention them whenever I read enough of the work.

I wonder how it holds up today. Given that so many years have passed, has it fallen behind to the Chicago manual of style, or some other authoritative work. I tend to like to old fashioned, but would it be a great source for style in todays world. I dont know.
I just started reading Riders of the Dead (2003), by Dam Abnett. I'm 30 pages in and I'm gripped. It's a Warhammer Fantasy novel but very gritty and sword and sorcery adjacent.
I was reading the Sword of Kaigen, but...I fear I am not ready for it. I think I am going to put it on hold and go back to book 3 of the Pakksenarion series.I finished writing my current book 4, so I will have some time ;)

We might just have to call this Mary's thread. Mary, I could not read that many books that quickly if I wanted to. You rock.
