I read a VERY INTENSE bit at lunch and was all 🙀🙀🙀 and my colleague asked what I was reading and I could not describe the book at all I could only say that it's good and it's intense

Betsy is starting The Oldest Foods on Earth: A History of Australian Native Foods with Recipes

Goodreads has the wrong number of pages for this... I'm actually on p158 and I'm writing it here because I have to take the bookmark out...

Betsy is 27% done with A Tyranny of Queens (Manifold Worlds, #2)

It took me a little bit to reacclimatise myself to the world and I'm not sure I've remembered all the characters from the first book properly, but I've most certainly made the switch from "what was happening again?" to "so many emotions I can't put it down"

"Cookie Cutter Superhero" was an interesting semi-satirical take on superhero stories & culture. If only all the misogyny etc was as simple as a mysterious machine!

Betsy is 15% done with Scale-Bright

This is beautiful. It's also fascinating reading something based on a mythology I'm not really familiar with, but has a lot in common with other mythologies I do know well.
