*tap tap* is this thing on? etc.

There has been a whole-ass (ongoing) pandemic since I posted here. Tumblr banned porn and everyone was supposedly going to come back here, and then Elon Musk said he's buying Twitter and everyone was hie thee to Tumblr, and all the cool kids (literally) are on TikTok so here I am on the non-T site.

Hello!

A lot of stuff has happened in the three years since I last posted, in my life and in the world, and I am here to talk about NONE OF THAT. Instead I am here to TRY A THING. That thing is making a TBR list for the month, in the perhaps vain hope that instead of checking out 50 different books and carrying them back and forth to my house and never reading them, I instead pick a few things that I'm most interested in right now and actually READ them.

Revolutionary idea, I know.

For Book Club™

• Oathbringer by Brandon Sanderson - Part 2

Everything Else: 

• Jade War by Fonda Lee - I read Jade City in April and I have a chance to finish the series before I forget everything that happened
• Kingdom of Characters: The Language Revolution that Made China Modern by Jing Tsu
• Himawari House by Harmony Becker
• The Perfect Crimes of Marian Hayes by Cat Sebastian - assuming my hold comes in!

And that is more than enough for me to struggle to finish.

Apparently a bunch of people have migrated from TikTok to Tumblr but they didn't understand how it works and had to be told they had to like and reblog stuff. I had people following me whose blogs were just blank, so I blocked them thinking they were bots. Turns out they were just so used to being fed content they didn't realise they had to actually interact with it.
