It's Monday... everything feels overcomplicated.
I may be overthinking everything, though.

Oh wait, no, It's Tuesday... that's the problem.

I better go read something

Is there a #bookclub for #mastodon ?? Loved Library of Burned Books… probably my favorite read in the last 12 months! #whatareyoureading

Found this at the local opp shop today. #EricGill is one of my hero typographers and the creator of one of my favourite fonts. Looking forward to reading this 'explosively scandalous biography'.

https://www.audible.ca/pd?asin=B071Z5TGW8&source_code=ASSORAP0511160006&share_location=rate_review Finished The Great Hunt by Robert Jordan last night. Other than the last book I think the great hunt would have to be my favourite. So much happens and you learn so much about the world of Wheel of Time. If you haven’t read Wheel of Time I 100% recommend it. Yes it’s long but that just means there is more to enjoy. :) #wot #wheeloftime #reading #readingisfundemental #pickupabook #whatareyoureading

Book 2 of 2023

I Hate Hamlet by Paul Rudnick

This has been sitting on my nightstand for months since a friend of mine cleaned out her library and asked everyone at a party to take something home. It’s a Broadway play from 1991 about a young TV star who moves to New York, moves into John Barrymore’s old apartment, and is visited by the ghost of Barrymore when he is cast in a theatre-in-the-park production of Hamlet. A quick read to help rebuild habits.

I Hate Hamlet by Paul Rudnick

I've had this sitting on my nightstand for months when a friend of mine cleaned out her library and asked everyone at a party to take something home. It's a Broadway play from 1991 with a cast of recognizable faces from the early and mid-2000s. I've attached the cast list photo below. I don't read p

Book 1 of 2023 complete.

The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern

What a blessing it was to receive this book as a birthday gift. I devoured it. It is everything I love about fiction and reads like a love letter to storytelling. I need to sit with it for a bit, but at this moment in time, it is in my top five favorite books.

Hey @bookstodon what are you reading lately?
I’m finishing up my holiday reads, the last one being A Magical New York Christmas by Anita Hughes, and I’m getting ready to start The Last Unicorn by Peter S Beagle for a sci-fi/fantasy book club I’m leading! 🤓

I'm currently listening to Murder for Christmas on Audible.

Father Christmas is found dead under the Christmas tree 🎄 whodunit?

What's everyone else reading/listening to this festive season?

Listen to Murder for Christmas by Francis Duncan on Audible. https://www.audible.co.uk/pd/B01KU7DY2S?source_code=ASSOR150021921000R

I bought this used copy of Mario Vargas Llosa’s The War of the End of the World in the late 1980s, tossing it into the book-moving boxes over three moves across three states in three dacades, waiting until the day I thought it was the book to pick up and read. I had been put off by the cheesy cover, but the day has come. I’m only 75 pages in, yet sometimes you know a book is great from the beginning. Turn-of-the-20th-century Brazil was wild beyond measure. #books #bookstodon #whatareyoureading

Is there a fiction book group on Mastodon anywhere?#BooksOfMastodon #books #WhatAreYouReading #AmReading #BookGroup

Last night I finished reading the #CurrentBook. It was The Man Who Died Twice by #RichardOsman. Very good though I wouldn't want a risk-taker like Elizabeth in my life. Also, I'm about Joyce's level, which is a bit of a facer. #WhatAreYouReading #BooksOfMastodon #Books

Anyway, now I get to visit my #TBR pile.

What are YOU reading?
#WhatAreYouReading
We're reading the sweetly illustrated but socially dated _Minn of the Mississippi_ by Holling C. Holling, _Shoggoths in Traffic and Other Stories_ by Tobias S. Buckell, a couple Tarot guidebooks, _The Panic Virus_ by Seth Mnookin, mountain of backlogged NYT and magazines, and I forget what else. #Fickle #housewife #books #ItsNotHoardingIfItsBooks
