If this looks super light, well, that’s because by my standards it obviously is, but also I started Tom’s Crossing on the last day of March and it was twelve hundred freaking pages long.
Book of the Month is Cursed Daughters, with The Door on the Sea and The Reanimator’s Fate very close behind. I’m enjoying For Whom The Belle Tolls way, way, way more than I thought I would, but I’m not done with it yet so it isn’t eligible.
Looks kinda rough, right? Hahaha you have no idea:
And we aren’t fucking done:
Minor milestone: this will be the final Unread Shelf for the bookshelf in the top picture, which has hosted my unread books since I began this series ten thousand years ago. It is being replaced this weekend with something sturdier and just barely wider, and also I can never leave the house again because I have too much to read.
Book of the Month is Matt Dinniman’s This Inevitable Ruin, because shut up, that’s why.
I swear to God I read books this month, and I also swear to God that end-of-summer book sales are the bane of my existence.
A little better than last month? At least there are no books in front of books. Man, I need to do nothing but read this summer.
