Emily Strand is 65% done with Careless People: A Cautionary Tale of Power, Greed, and Lost Idealism
Fuck you Mark Zuckerberg! Fuck you Sheryl Sandberg! And an extra special fuck you to Joel Kaplan! You are all shameful! God I’m just trying to power through this thing so I can be done with it.

Emily Strand is starting The Vanishing Half
Hello to the three people that read my Goodreads updates! I'm going to try an experiment and give StoryGraph a go as goodreads is owned by Amazon and Bezos can suck it.

If you want to try storygraph (also owned by a woman of color)...it transfers all your current data over easily, I'm enjoying it! Link below if you want to check it out. Friend me! emfahastra
