Alas! I do not have a book just yet! This research forms part of my PhD thesis though which will be finished later this year ☺️ Happy to share the conference paper via email and to discuss it if you’re interested in the subject
Good god I wish they’d stop remaking and rebooting and live-actioning things that are ALREADY FINE 🥲
