Finished Cold Days by Jim Butcher! (The 14th book in Dresden Files series.)

It was a wild ride! We are back to world shattering problems and trying to stop them. Just finished the book so haven't finalised which one to start next, but thinking about reading the next Mistborn book, 3rd one in Wax and Wayne era. Let's see.

Bingo Squares: None.

Randomly picked The Will of the Many from a list of recommendations.

Still too early to judge but it has potential. Magic system seems interesting, and I'm very interested in the world building. The present tense is certainly a choice, but it works where it needs to.

On the other hand, I've never been terribly interested in fantasy Rome, the pyramid scheme magic system risks painfully on the nose allegory if not handled properly, and the prospect of this story moving to "the academy" has me wary due to my irrational hatred of stories set in schools.
