Can't wait to order the new book by Millet, #Dinosaurs. https://www.worldcat.org/title/1294286731 #goodreads #dystopia

476 followers · 752 posts · Server mas.toI highly highly recommend Biography of X by #CatherineLacey (fans of #DenisJohnson will get a kick out of a few parts, #Bowie fans too). Picked it up solely on the recommendation of my local bookstore, and it will very likely be my top book of 2023. I'm motoring through it because I can't wait to find out what happens next, and am already planning on rereading it. #bookstodon

Thoroughly enjoying The Largesse of the Sea Maiden, the last book Denis Johnson wrote
