Ravenclawjedi42 Posted November 5 Share Posted November 5 I recently finished MAUS, an adult graphic novel about cute little animals and the holocaust, and started rereading Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy for the third time for a very different tone.

I really enjoyed the ‘Tales from the gas station’ books, so funny to have a protagonist go: ‘Nope, I’m not getting paid enough to deal with this’. And two new Sanderson books, yay! I’m currently reading ‘Legend of the Storm Sneezer’ by Kristiana Sfirlea and it’s a fun, warm book (with aro ace main characters!) It’s a children’s book, so I sometimes have a little trouble focussing on the plot, but the main characters make up for that :) I love Sanderson! I haven’t been able to get Sunlit Man yet, but Yumi was great. My favorite novel is probably The Book Thief, a tragic yet comedic historical fiction novel set in Nazi Germany about a girl who steals books from funerals, from book burnings, and from her neighbor who she is trying to get revenge on for complicated reasons. My favorite genre is fantasy, definitely, and I’d say Sanderson is my favorite author. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hemogoblin Posted November 17 Share Posted November 17 Just had a lot of deadtime just standing around during a field sampling event in locations with no service. To kill time, I decided I could read something off my B&N app. ChoseYou're Not Supposed To Die Tonight which was an EXCELLENT choice. Devoured it in about a day. A really fun take on the slasher genre. I love how it opens and you know it's not real but that it's gotta become real at some point. Classic yet avoided being stereotypical and predictable. A really great example of how to build tension and atmosphere within a book, too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeltaAro Posted Saturday at 06:44 PM Share Posted Saturday at 06:44 PM Vagueness by Timothy Williamson ... which is about vagueness, philosophically. 🙃 Starts with the paradox of the heap, of course. Eubulides of Miletus was pretty clever that we're still arguing about his riddles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
