Here is the #hashtagbrigade #buddyread schedule! Anyone can join at any time. I have a master tag list that I use once a month to see who is interested in the next book. I use that tag list to post every day. We read a chapter a day and I post every day. The hashtags are often ridiculous and always chapter spoilers, so don‘t read my post until you‘ve read the chapter!

so-soThis was an okay read. It was mostly stories I was already familiar with. Overall it was okay. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hi, Sherlockians~
#2 is coming right up! See link below for additional information + a summary (spoiler alert!). Note: “The Cardboard Box“ was actually published between “Silver Blaze“ and “The Yellow Face,“ but the story was completely omitted in the first British publication of THE MEMOIRS OF SH, and we're following that order. We'll discuss why when we read “Box“ later on.

pickThe book is full of clever aphorisms. I noticed within these fragments (often 3rd or 4th hand) the origins of many themes and tropes in Western media over the intervening 2500 years since these fragments began to appear. A quick, but dense read and essential for anyone interested in philosophy.
pickI can‘t capture this. It's just doing a whole lot of stuff, from many different approaches, and it all works. Sometimes it‘s really funny. But mostly I was absorbed. I was reading at a crawl, slowly wading through words that were demanding to me that I slow down and wade through them, and experience them, think of their sound. It‘s just…something. In some non-emotional but deep way I find myself very attached to this. Quite a book.
