It's my month!

I love books! I have a The proceeds go toward supporting indie sellers.

I probably don't have a right to ask for anything more this month, given how kind everyone has been in keeping me housed. Just gonna put this here anyway. 🥹

I’m going to get into bed and read my book (Gardens of the Moon). I’m finding it easier to concentrate on this novel compared the last one I read, I’m maintaining the thread better and more absorbed in the fantasy world

Delicious lunch at Y Talbot in Tregaron, amazing panna cotta. Now another 1 hour drive to the reservoirs. On the way here I finished listening to Prima Facie by Suzie Miller - very tense courtroom scenes. Highly recommend but massive TW for SA and gaslighting of victims

Join me in Episode 14 of the Spiritual But Not Religious podcast, where we delve into "Wake Up Call" by Tom Rapsas. Drawing from the wisdom of spiritual luminaries like Thomas Merton, Eckhart Tolle, and the Dalai Lama, Tom invites us to contemplate profound questions about existence, purpose, and the nature of divinity itself.

? I The Breakup Lists by Adib Khorram (YA, theater kid, narrator is deaf) and have reached the part where I know exactly what is going to happen to screw up the romance and the anticipation is so painful I can barely read on.

I always have to do a vague internal doubletake whenever a @sentencebender story says something like “on the ride home from Canajoharie or Schaghticoke”.

This is turning out to be a book I'm not terribly excited about: The Dog Of The South by Charles Portis. The tone sort of reminds me of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, but set in Texas and Mexico and without the hardcore drugs. Parts are funny, but mostly it kind of drags and I'm not sure what the point is. If I wasn't already more than halfway through, I'd probably add it to the DNF pile. @bookstodon

I Arboreality by Rebecca Campbell and my heart is breaking at the beauty of her words describing an untenable reality of climate change. This is a book I will read read slowly to savor. @bookstodon

? I haven't been posting about books much, been kind of in a meh mood. Still slowly reading Demon Copperhead, which is amazing but a LOT. Listened to Carrie Soto is Back, which was a bit of a hard sell because of the unlikable narrator but very enjoyable in the end. And just finished The Prisoner's Throne which I enjoyed but kind of forgot about as soon as I'd finished it.

My 2024 reading thread is below!

Book 1: On a Sunbeam by Tillie Walden

5 stars

Stunning art, lovely found family, and a fun sci fi setting, all while managing to strike the perfect balance between cozy and yearning.

Book 19 of 2024: Gemina by Kaufman and Kristoff

4.5 stars

A rare case where the sequel is better than the first book! I found the romance in this one more compelling, and the characters a little better-drawn and realistic. The ergodic elements continued to be interesting and well-integrated with the visual design. Several plot twists made me gasp aloud. I'm now impatiently waiting on my library hold for the final book in the trilogy to come through!
