I’ve been reading sherlock holmes recently (I can’t find my exact publication in good reads so I haven’t recorded it yet) and I really admire Maomao as a sherlock holmes-type character. I watched the anime so I know the contents of the first 3 volumes, but the read is still enjoyable! Hyuga has a very straight forward prose, detailed but not flowery. Neat!!!

…I don’t know if i like Vuong’s writing style.

This book is due in THREE DAYS. i might just have to get out a physical copy idk

Made a bad day better. Fascinating to read in the voice of real people, like being transported through history

Do not read this book if you have ever, for a second, considered (1) you shouldn’t have kids bc of your parents or (2) you are inherently unloveable. Or do, I can’t stop you

I really enjoy the prose of this book and how it hops between times, reflecting on Less’ experiences with different partners in different places. I will say I’ve hit the point in the book where it’s sort of like. If Less doesn’t catch a break or stop acting so anxious, I’m not sure how much longer I can read. It’s excellent but my current capacity for that is…not high.

Started this last night after taking an edible & spiking my anxiety. Its due on libby in 9 days, we’ll see how far I actually get

Mmmm prose

wow i cant believe gay people are real

went to the strand today so enjoy all the new TBRs

Nearly a year after being introduced to this book, I’m finally reading it!!!

sorry for all the books i just added i was going through a list i made awhile ago

Started reading at the recommendation of a friend. Structurally, it feels very basic. The opening chapters so far are each 2 pages, and all the claims the author makes feel like they should be backed up with evidence but are, from what I can tell, just personal observations. Where are the research citations? Where is the proof???

Generally, it takes a lot for me to like a book that uses first person. It feels immature, at times. However, as the narrator is only nine years old, it fits very well. Excited to see where it goes.

haunting. what is happening

nice

I really thoroughly enjoy this book but zero people who have talked to me about it game and while I admire how Zevin develops the story in such a way you don’t need to get the references, I am enjoying it so much because I *do* get them. a fucking persona mention?? My mother didnt understand that when she read it 😭 crazy how we can take different things away from the same text

Reread. It occurred to me that I don’t log many, if any, of the comics I read because I’m usually reading weekly releases and it doesn’t occur to me that I’m going through novels at a time.
Anyways, this is a reread. I’ve only read Kekkaishi start to end once, but it remains one of my favorite shonen manga. Wish it would get its flowers ;-; begging for a remake like ranma 1/2

Subway reading again. Dont miss the 3hr summer commute but i do miss train reading 3

Been reading this on my commute, libby returned it before I finished :( so I’m in line to get it in another 2 weeks

Desperately need a NYPL card so I can get NYPL libby
