Death of the Author: A Novel | Nnedi Okorafor

Just want to share this, as it's (semi) relevant to the novel: https://staffprofiles.bournemouth.ac.uk/display/whittingtonp

I have the privilege of calling him a friend and a neighbour. He's absolutely amazing with what he's achieved - paraplegic due to birth complications. He's able to drive, whilst I (with no obvious physical disabilities) can't!

BarbaraBB Interesting!! 23h

Megabooks Very cool! My mom has paralyzed legs due to childhood polio, so I was really interested in (and read) this book prior to CL. People consistently amaze me! 12h

I‘m not loving the audiobook of this but it‘s not the narrator‘s fault. I am not enjoying the story. Switching to print in the hopes I won‘t just bail completely. There‘s an 8 week wait for the ebook, but no wait other than transport from one branch to my branch for the hardcover, so I‘m going to try it in print, but I‘ll miss this weekend‘s discussion. 😮‍💨

peaKnit I had to bail. So many good reviews just not my cup of tea I guess. :( 1d

DGRachel @peaKnit Thank you for this. It confirms my choice to get it from the library instead of buying the ebook. I‘m sorry it didn‘t work for you. 1d

Spin Around Space | Igloobooks

Bingo card to come later, but here are my #bookspin and #doublespin for July. Bookspin should be easy since it‘s one of the #camplitsy25 books, but I‘m not sure how I‘m going to squeeze the double spin into my TBR. 😳

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! Enjoy!! 2d

AmyG Woodworking is wonderful. 2d

squirrelbrain What @AmyG said - it‘s fab! 1d

Death of the Author: A Novel | Nnedi Okorafor

My plan for this evening had been to read a chunk of our #CampLitsy25 book. Then I fell and cracked my head ... Wish that was a fun riddle.

I think I am fine, just super sore waiting for test results, getting good care. Sitting here worried about the government and about how soon we are close to having millions more people who cannot get this level of care.

Jas16 Oh no! I hope that all is well and you are home soon. 2d

ChaoticMissAdventures @Ruthiella, @mariaku21, @zezeki, @willaful, @BarbaraBB, @sherrisilvera, @CarolynM, @Susanita, @TheLudicReader, @Eggbeater, @Jas16 Thank you! I am finally home, I sat through a lot of tests, then sat & was monitored for hours.. EDs are never fun. But nothing broken, just scrapes, bruises & a moderate concussion. @AmyG I was just listening to a video with Ronan Farrow who was talking about an entire county in DL that has no hospitals. Horrifying 1d

squirrelbrain Oh no, glad to hear you‘re OK (ish) though! 1d

dabbe So glad to read that you‘re okay! Rest and let your body heal. 💙🩵💙 1d

RaeLovesToRead I read all the genres hehe. Guess it's got to be a sports romance lol 2d

MatchlessMarie This is perfect for this month! I have a coworker who a few weeks ago remembered how I liked books and started talking to me about what he was reading and he‘s been trying to get me into fantasy and lent me his copy of Eragon as a gateway book 😂 to try out. Most fantasy I have read are other genres with light fantasy elements in them so far.

Eragon: Odkaz Dra?�ch jezdc? - 1. d�l

CBee @RaeLovesToRead believe it or not, I read one of those and it was great

Check, Please! Book 1: # Hockey

CBee @MatchlessMarie that‘s awesome! 2d

Ruthiella Hmmm. This might be a tough one! 2d

OriginalCyn620 Okay, I have to give this one some thought! 🤔 it may be a toss up between nonfiction and fantasy 2d

CBee @OriginalCyn620 did you ever read The House in the Cerulean Sea? That‘s fantasy! And it‘s fabulous! The sequel is too. 2d

OriginalCyn620 @CBee Yes, I‘ve read both and loved them! Fantasy is hit or miss for me, but sometimes I am pleasantly surprised! 2d

CBee @OriginalCyn620 same! Klune does write a lot of fantasy so maybe another of his would also work! 2d

Bklover Well, this might mean a romance for me! Maybe I‘ll finally read

Beach Read: the ONLY laugh-out-loud love story you�ll want to read on holiday

Meshell1313 Ooh interesting. I‘ve had this suspense thriller on my shelf forever because I don‘t typically read it but it was one of those $5 Barnes and noble cafe books and they get me every single time! 😂

The Girls I've Been

CatLass007 This could be difficult. I read every genre. I‘ve never read a Wastern but I have some — nope I take that back. I read Robert B Parker‘s Westerns the first four books of the Cole & Hitch series are excellent because Parker wrote them. His estate hired someone to ruin them by writing more. Let me think… I love science fiction, fantasy, mystery, suspense, thrillers, biography, memoir, faith-based nonfiction. I don‘t remember reading any (cont)⬇️ 2d

CatLass007 history, but I know I‘ve got some in my library. They‘re all so long, though. 2d

CBee @Bklover I read an Emily Henry book a while back and really liked it! 2d

CBee @Meshell1313 go for it! 2d

CBee @CatLass007 you can always skip! 😊 2d

CatLass007 Nope, I found one. Actually I found several but I finally settled on one. It‘s an un-history book.

Lies My Teacher Told Me

CBee @CatLass007 awesome 🤩 2d

AmyG I am going to count my Sunday Buddy Read Book….it‘s YA. Not my genre. 2d

CBee @AmyG sounds good to me ♥️ 2d

julieclair I‘m going to use the #LittensLoveRomance selection for this month (title still to be determined). The genre is Steampunk - totally new to me! 2d

CBee @julieclair perfect 🤩 1d

OriginalCyn620 @CBee I looked through the books I own and did come across this NF, so I‘ll read it for the challenge this month! I love her anyway, so I‘m looking forward to it!

June #storygraph book report, right on track for 52 books this year!

#camplitsy25 pick Wild Dark Shore and a Murderbot novel take first place!

I think that‘s the last of the Murderbot novels. I hope Martha Wells‘ health improves and that she can possibly write more, I‘m obsessed with the series.

julesG She's working on another Murderbot, expected next year. I asked her on BlueSky not expecting an answer. So, was doubly happy when she replied. 3d

Suet624 @julesG that‘s lovely that she responded to you. 3d

Kitta @julesG oh wow that she responded to you!! Next year then, I can‘t wait! 3d
