Sharing this illustration I had the pleasure of doing for @thomasthecat.bsky.social of the Enterprise D's Cetacean Ops and the time Geordi gave a Ferengi a tour of the area. #startrektng #startrek

Book #2 of 2025 a delightfully lovely and intimate examination of lifelong love & friendship.
I adored this immersion into two peopleโ€™s romantic world.

The book is filled with touching moments which punched me in the gut & elicited real emotion like few books can manage.

A solid โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ from me!

#1 of 2025. The Favourites โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ

An epic read of complex love & relationships & the toxic competitiveness of professional sport. A thriller, a love story, & a deep dive into figure skating.

Loved the writing style veering between narrative, & documentary, which built
up the suspense beautifully.

Yeah a few people have commented on that. I think itโ€™s because the spacing means thicker book, means more paper, ups the production cost. I REALLY hope the cost is because they just cost more to produce, and not an increase just โ€ฆ because. ๐Ÿคž

They donโ€™t mention this specifically, but I think theyโ€™ve increased spacing around the text too so itโ€™s easier to follow. ๐Ÿ˜Š

A good question! They use a specific font which is easier for those with Dyslexia to read, along with cream coloured paper and blue type both of which reduce the paper glare and contrast which can cause text to jumble and move around. ๐Ÿ˜Š
