I started reading “Los Premios” by Julio Cortázar 
set in the 1950s it's about a bunch of porteños who won tickets to a cruiser ship to somewhere (they have no idea where). First chapter the passengers all meet each other at the London City cafeteria in Buenos Aires (that places still exists, it's located between Av de Mayo and Av Perú, they have a wonderful tea and deserts but are kind of expensive) then they're escorted by the police to the ship at the port, a ship called Malcolm, none of the passengers knows where they're going, the officers refuse to tell them at the first day and I'm getting some White Lotus vibes from the passengers and their companions. I'm also reading “ Tratamento de Água – Concepção, Projeto e Operação de Estações de Tratamento” a textbook on water treatment because of work related stuff.

It's cool so far. A Mercenary Lord is betrayed and left for dead so tries to assume a new identity while slowly uncovering a conspiracy. Plus the jousting arc on raptors is cool asf.

When fellow authors give blurbs like the one on this book, they probably aren't actually reading it 90% of the time, right?
