TiffyBelle, to books

📚 For my next read, it's time to return to my usual comfort pick genre: fantasy. I'll be reading Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo.

I've heard nothing but good things about this book, and the Netflix show, Shadow and Bone, which was based on it.

If it's anywhere near as good as the reviews, I'm in for a treat. Looking forward to some epic world building and adventure!

Foxy,

@TiffyBelle I was going to start with Six of Crows but decided that its better to start with Shadow and Bone. Hope u enjoy Six of Crows!

📚 Finished reading the horror novel: From Below by Darcy Coates.

A decent horror book in a unique setting deep beneath the ocean in a shipwreck being explored by a documentary team.

It got great reviews, but I'm rating it a little lower than most. The setting definitely made a change from the cliché haunted house, though!

My review:

★★★☆☆

‘I recently stopped my #Twitter account & like many others, moved to #Mastodon & the first #poet I encountered there was Yahia Lababidi.

What a delight! What a calm voice of reason. What an excellent poet. I am going to let Yahia speak for himself. Enjoy!’

So, there's a based on The Sympathizer by Viet Thanh Nguyen coming!

My inner bookworm tells me to stay away from it to spare myself another "book to TV show" disappointment. But, one never knows :)

It’s been long enough, so here goes an #introduction post. I’m currently a student at #GriffithUniversity Australia studying #environmentalscience and #datascience. In a past life I was a professional #cellist but growing climate alarm motivated me into a hard pivot in my late 20s to a career in #science and #sustainability. Between bouts of existential dread and stoicism, I enjoy #cats, #ttrpgs, #gaming, #art, #fitness, #reading, and am a #soccer tragic (especially the women’s game in 🇦🇺).

thyckhyde,

@juliajaniszewski What a brilliant career change. Thank you!

"She had gone too far into the unhappiness of the world to start all over again." —Deborah Levy, Swimming Home

This is an odd, engrossing, unpredictable drama that feels like it's taking place on multiple planes. Shades of Muriel Spark and Ali Smith but very much its own beast

"She was not ready to go home and start imitating someone she used to be." —Deborah Levy, Swimming Home

ONLY THE ANIMALS

Hold on to your baguettes.
The comparisons to Fargo are apt. This twisty French thriller will titillate your Audrey Tatous and Jean your Dejardin.
Will make you want to read subtitles! Je voudrais une chambre pour deux!
