What are you reading?

I've been trying to get myself reading actively again of late. I've picked up a few books recently but actually getting myself to sit down and start reading them has been another matter, so I said I'd go with a re-read to try to get things flowing.

Just finished my re-read of Dune Messiah. Leelee got me a gorgeous copy from Folio Society a few months back but it's so nice that I don't even want to open it, let alone bring it to work where I do most of my reading on breaks or when on public transport, but I grabbed my old copy and started again. It is quite a departure from Dune in that it is on such a smaller scale and is far more intimate, but I think that's one of the aspects that has me excited for the next Villeneuve movie. My favourite parts of the first book are the early sections that are more focused on political intrigue (a lot of which was missed out on in the movie) and this is almost solely focused on that. I wasn't planning on it but I think I'll just do a re-read of all the Dune books at this point because I enjoyed that so much.
