Ahhh September is too hectic a month for this so taking a pause.

The library recalled it and I’m glad. Look I know screens are bad for kids! I know! But you know what’s worse? The ever present threat of gun violence, climate disaster, late-stage capitalism, and fascism. Take all the screens away and it won’t do anything to fix that.

Okay this is from the library let’s see how bigoted this guy is

I lost momentum during a stressful weekend, and the library recalled this but I hope to finish one day!

What an absolute horror show. Terrifying that this guy will be running the government soon.

Reading about the shadow president. 🤮

I’m not the only one googling “Sally Rooney autistic”, right?

This woman was lingering near me at the bus stop this morning and I assumed she wanted to ask directions but then she said, “She’s so good isn’t she? I love her books.” I said something really insightful like, “yeah . . . “ because it was 7 AM.

I randomly picked this up at the airport a few months ago and had no idea it focused so much on augmentative and alternative communication!

I didn’t realize this was in the Love Medicine series, so I’m reading ahead it seems. Oh well. I’m in a cabin and they had this book and I was thrilled since I’m on an Erdrich kick.

I’m 52% in and think I’ve read what I need to read, because it’s getting into the weeds now and I’m really confused.

Yes, I’m reading this after watching Heartstopper.

Nope nope nope! Dnf

Found a 1976 edition in a little free library and took it as a sign.

Good lord this is a terrifying dystopia!

This book is a trip, and I love it. Feel as though I wound up in an RPG.

Oh this is making me so nostalgic for my 80s/90s computer game days!

Etymology! Deconstructing the colonialism of the British Empire! Footnotes! Be still my heart!

Just in case my cousin is reading this an silently judging me . . . look, you can’t read 5-star books all the time.

I hope there is a hell so her mom is there.

Damn, I’m glad her mom died, too.

Holy wow learning so much about Dahl’s experience in the RAF during WW2.

Holy shit she has permission to burn the music industry to the ground.

Oh I love this so far. So meta and witty and entertaining. Just hope the author doesn’t screw up the rest!

I’m allowed to read a beach read, right?

Ugh this book is so corny. It feels like a bad play. I may ditch before the second act starts up.

I have a major sense of foreboding and wonder what I’ve gotten myself into.
