Someday, with luck and hard work, she will have a name too.

What did you pick???

This is…. Extremely helpful actually lol! I will probably read everything in the Witches line. My SIL gave me Hogfather and Going Postal too so I’ll probably get to those eventually

To take a metaphorical page out of @noethematt.bsky.social’s book….. what are y’all reading this weekend?

A white hand holds a paperback copy of Witches Abroad by Terry Pratchett

Book 44/150: WITCHES ABROAD. This was my first Terry Pratchett book and I’m happy to report it was literally perfect. 5⭐️

A completed audiobook screen for Small Game by Blair Braverman

Book 43/150: SMALL GAME. I think if I had not read so many Nora Roberts books where there’s some sick twisted dude watching your every move I would have enjoyed this more. I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop instead of appreciating the one that was already on the (forest) floor. 3.5⭐️

A white hand holds a library hardcover copy of Icarus by K Ancrum

Sunday afternoon read - ICARUS by K. Ancrum. Can def see why this thrilling queer art heist YA novel won the HS Sequoyah book award! Ancrum pulls you in from page one and doesn’t let go. 4⭐️

A white hand displays a pair of earrings made of silver chain and multicolored buttons

My crafting group this month was button-themed. I made these cutie little earrings and can’t wait to wear em out!

I went on #pittsky looking for Discourse about The Pitt and was instead inundated with adorable land seals in pajamas 10/10 incredible mixup

These books are so cute! They’re basically if Murder, She Wrote took place on an Animal Crossing island

I can officially tell you exactly how much you have to weigh for a doctor to suggest your health problems are due to size! It’s happened to me for the first time! Apparently! Intermittent loss of sight! Is due to being fat!

"It's hard to boycott a writer when you grew up reading them and their work meant so much to you."

No it really isn't, or I'd still be reading Neil Gaiman.

what happened to if you have time to lean you have time to clean. or does that only apply to me making $7.25/hr to sell shitty frozen yogurt and not the highly paid murder squad

>belly hurts from menstrual cramping
>eat a metric fuck ton of spaghetti plus one (1) mcd Diet Coke
>belly hurts from too full

Why, how do you decide what color frame to buy? (I went with orange)

The Worth Saga was basically perfect. Book 3 had me doing everything from actually kicking my feet & giggling to crying all over my ereader. 10/10 no notes

Cover for The Very Definition of Love by Sophia Benoit

You CAN do an illustrated cover that conveys “this is a book that fucks.”

It is *fascinating* to me how quickly some people have gone completely from “we all must work in the office! human collaboration is vital and only happens in person!” to “I can replace all these pesky people with chatbots!” Definitely some commentary there about our society and who gets to choose.

I also got to go visit one of my favorite art museums, the philbrook

Got to spend this weekend at the state library conference. Met some authors (and accidentally twinned with one), talked about some books I liked, ate some snacks. It was pretty sick tbh

I firmly believe there is no “right” way to read- be it audio, eyeball, ebook, whatever. But one thing eyeball reading does have that the others never will is spending an hour in a well-organized bookstore, letting your next read find you

It reminded me so much of The Hollow Places!! The heebiest jeebies

A large pencil drawing of a negative. The image is of some barren trees with a huge hole punched through the middle that kind of looks like an eclipse or portal

An art installation of charred blackened roots and stones coming out of a wall

I saw the most incredible art exhibit at the Philbrook today by Joel Daniel Phillips with poems by Quraysh Ali Lansana. They’re huge pencil drawings of “killed negatives” and this one stopped me in my tracks. If this isn’t a @tkingfisher.com cover idk what is. Also a kingfisherey sculpture

I will also add: there are a startling amount of PIOs (public information officers) who used to be in news (at least when I worked news).

They know exactly what info they’re withholding from journalists in their releases and statements.

Surprise tornado warning last nite as soon as I got home from work. The cat was not pleased but the sky sure was pretty. #okwx #skysky

I will never ever ever stop being grateful my dog isn’t afraid of storms. It’s ‘nader season, yall

if you have to qualify your stance on supporting equality with a "but" or an "except", then you don't support equality

Like ok I know Noah Wyle is an actor but watching baby Dr Robby (Dr Carter) touch his FACE, BAREHANDED, after an entire tray of urine samples got dumped on him with no hand sani or wash had me actually shocked lmao

Ok update it was really good. According to goodreads I read it 9 years ago and was very meh about it (obviously, I didn’t even remember it!) but I loved it this time around
