I keep hearing Kadgar instead of Cathcart. World of Warcraft never leaves you, huh 😮‍💨

Attack on Titan??????

Somehow I have to say that the least interesting thing about Area X is ... Area X.

accidentally spoiled myself as to where the protagonist is residing in volume IV so i am excited to return to readjng from this series again <3

Ich hab' ja gedacht, dass ich das heute locker in einem Rutsch lesen kann, aber leider hatten die Öffis einen anderen Plan für mich. Nun gut…

I've missed Henry Palace - these books are such easy reading and I mean this as the highest of compliments.

Feindbild Isemarkt 💥💥💥

Letztes Buch des Jahres! Auf auf mit Gebrüll!

Didn't get on all that well with this the first time I tried to read it last year - second time's the charm. Man. This rocks

(big thank you to Kristin for the Christmas present 😘😘😘)

ice hockey mention ‼️

mensch, was bin ich froh, dass der wirklich nervige teil meiner familie schon längst nicht mehr am leben ist. das ist ja grausig :D

have now realized that i instantly recognized The Biographer to be hershel parker, which means that i am far too deep in the moby dick and melville sauce…

I'm not married to the guy but good God, I would like a divorce from Herman Melville

At this point it reminds me a lot of Weather by Jenny Offill, which isn't necessarily a compliment, though the structure works better here than in Weather. I'm interested in learning where the authors split the work in this book, though. Did one just research and chronicle the fun facts while one did their best to wrap a marital drama around it?

The true horror is being forcibly relocated to Hamilton, Ontario, of all places.

quick "oh shit, it's frosty outside" interlude from my current reads

this would make such a good telltales-style game

it's slow to get through and feels a bit overwritten at times, but i am enjoying all those little snippets on the legend surrounding melville and those who adore him.

Hockey mention ‼️

Death comes for the Archbishop mention ‼️

ich will ja nicht zu viel versprechen oder hoffen aber…. das ist bis jetzt zu 110% ein rahel-buch. die sprache! die natur! traurig und schön und einsam und somit kaum zu übertreffn.

The audiobook for this is so fun and such a godsend when I am trying my best to finish this book before Christmas vacation starts for real 💪🏼

Really up my alley so far!

unexpected whaling ship shenanigans <3
