Juggling a few books - enjoying them all.
Two more days of grading and then break - yay! A lot of family, friends and reading time coming up!

dabbe I remember the grading at this time of year, and I would always be SO tempted to just accidentally chuck 'em in the trash and give everyone credit! I never did, though. Hang in there! And sounds like you have an incredible break coming up! 💙❄️💙 2d

December push is here. The tagged book is one of 2 I have left on my GR TBR from 2018. Must finish it so I can read and get Black Sun back to the library!

Starting #wintergames off right! My first #snowedin read - I can‘t believe I‘ve never gotten round to reading this before, very well written, and a scary allegory for many countries, not just Stalinist Russia 😬

Also #20in4 - 1.5 hrs

My #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin reads for November are a novella based on Japanese folklore, and a 'fifties science fiction classic.

Spoiler: I'm gonna love these, y'all.

Thanks @TheAromaofBooks !

TheAromaofBooks Yay!!! Enjoy!!! 1mo

I love reading Japanese authors. There is just something about the way they tell a story. This is somewhat reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland but with a Japanese myth. This is less than 100 pages but well worth the read.

A Modest Proposal | Jonathan Swift

A significant satirical commentary on society and the politics of 17th-19th century Ireland and Britain. It provides a glimpse into the prevailing behaviours and beliefs of the upper classes in respect of the poor. It should provoke further investigation and study of Irish history pre-independence and reflection on the social contract and purpose of government.

Lol absurd. Totally original. Can't believe how long it took me to get through this lil book. Some of the math/physics/philosophy sections dragged, while the plot and human elements were so engaging. Very enjoyable and funny.
