pickEverything from the atmospheric color palette to the figuration to the truly bizarre final days of Stalin are so masterfully crafted here. Love the absurdity that reality delivers- just wish something like this would befall the current leadership… shouldn‘t be too much to ask- peace!

My January reads! I also included the short stories I read if they had been published individually. Pretty good reading month. No outright duds. I marked my top three with hearts.
First #bookspin list of 2024! This year I‘m going to keep unread titles from each month on the list to carry over to the following month, so hopefully I‘ll get to all of them before the end of the year. New strategies to #readmyowndamnbooks 😆😁📚. I‘ve had some of these for years.
Book 7 of #12booksof2023 is volume 1 of Mike Birchall's ongoing webtoon filled with bright colors where everyone has to wear a cat costume (for some as yet unknown reason). It soon becomes clear that the main characters Maggie & Sam are living in a dystopian surveillance society, where informing on your neighbors can boost your standing. Although vo. 2 was a bit of a letdown, I really enjoyed the first vol.

New #Murakami out today …. can‘t wait to put my eyeballs on it. 👀
pickI felt nostalgic for Buffy and so decided to read this graphic novel. I enjoyed it but it ends on a cliffhanger so the next volume just got put on my TBR stack.
I couldn't read much for the Oct. 17 24-hour readathon because of work, so a quick graphic novel was a good choice. @PuddleJumper
