Always fun to read a book and see how much Disney changed.
panI thought the fish sex was what was grossing everyone out. Nope.
Excited to be starting this book! 2 chapters in and interesting so far.
Time for this one. I wasn't a huge fan of Glitterland. I'm hoping for better results here.
pickHeartbreaking graphic nonfic about a woman's experience being a comfort woman to Japanese soldiers during WW2. Hard to read at times but definitely an important history to learn.
Starting this and very excited about it. I've heard great things.
panThis was both what I was expecting and exactly NOT what I was expecting. I'm not too good with stream of conscious and soc adjacent books and it tends to be a killswitch for me.
pickI love this book so hard. Short but fun and packed with the THING I love that Scalzi brings to his writing. Definitely recommend it for a lighthearted romp.
I am ridiculously excited to be reading this. Scalzi has never let me down and I love the premise.
My TBR currently sits at 964. My goal for the year is to get that number below 900. That includes new purchases.

I've just started this and wow it's so good! My copy is nearly falling apart but if I love it I'll probably invest in one that is in one piece.
so-soFinished this one yesterday. It's not quite what it says it is and is more of a memoir of Totenberg that frequently mentions RBG. Yes, they were friends, but the title and what it implies leaves a bad taste in my mouth when it's really just a memoir of the author's own life. Still had interesting information and I'm glad I listened to it.
Starting this one.
I've been using dice to roll for what books to read next to get through books I've had for so long but haven‘t gotten to. Really is helping me get rid of the tbr 🤣🤣
But anyway, I hadn't planned on being able to finish this but I'm home from work sick. So.
It's been pretty okay so far but not much about RBG.
@BennettBookworm Thank you so much! This book sounds AMAZING and the card is so so pretty 😍
Happy Holidays! 🎉
And thank you again to @MaleficentBookDragon for hosting the exchange!
Starting this one now. I know very little about it except that it's dark academia and the author's books are frequently checked out of our library.
pickWow. That was a lot, but it was wow. Definitely getting the second and third books asap.
I always glanced over this one, but finally got a copy after all the rave reviews about it. It's my current audiobook and I'm so glad to be listening. So much fun so far!
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 loving this so far.
The arguement for open borders from an economist.
pickSuper interesting graphic novel about how the brain works. Not indepth but informative.
About 150 pages into this one and I'm loving it! The world, the writing, the characters are everything i love to find in fantasy.
Also, pictured above is a toasted marshmallow hazulnut latte and wow. A+.
Later than I wanted but my #jolabokaflodswap book will go out tomorrow morning!
Thank you for hosting the swap @MaleficentBookDragon !
I am RIDICULOUSLY excited for this one!
pickI'm so sad that I have only one in this series left to read. I'll miss learning new shenanigans with these two.
bailedCouldn't get into it. I love pirates and the synopsis sounds amazing but it fell flat for me.
Please enjoy this adorable display my coworker put up in our library!
Next up. Have heard mixed things, but I'm overall really excited to try this author.
And now for the mystery QUEEN.
Either the lawyer is lying to the daughter or the author is very confused about what white collar crime is. I hope it's the former 😬😬😬
New cozy. Enjoying it so far.
I'm trying to wittle down the amount of cozy series I have/am reading (there are so many) so I think I'll finish the books I own in this series and then stop. Nothing really against it, just the construction cozy isn't my thing 😊
so-soAn interesting fictionalized look into the author's experience as an actor, but wow. What a twat.
pickShort and funny. Glad this one was found in the 60s. Definitely recommend!
so-soSurprisingly cute stories to add to the end of what was mostly a very disturbing "romance"
panI wanted to have sympathy for the mc but knowing that her position is mostly missing a time when anyone not pale(white) and upper/middle class was treated like vermon makes it hard to feel much of anything.
I have tomorrow and Friday off for Veteran's Day so I'm doing a #24in48 readathon on my own cause I miss them. 😞 I'm starting with the tagged book to finish the series (not my fave by the author, btw) and picking the rest of my options tonight.
Currently reading this with a grain of salt after looking up the background of Venezuelan politics (briefly).
It's been an age since I read The Diviners but I remember enjoying it. Time to find out how lost I'll be here.
The covers of these books are absolutely STUNNING.

It's been a while since I've read a cozy ❤❤
I think Bastet will be happy if we don't move for a few hours 😆
panI must confess this book was assigned reading in uni and I didn't read it. I just finished it and I ust say I disliked it. Not even for the racism and misogyny. It was written in 63 and I expect those to be there. But it was just overall not remotely the best commentary I've heard on mental health institutions and them vs us/person vs system.
At this point I feel like I'm working through classics so I can say exactly WHY I hate them.
Getting ready to finish this one. Gonna be a 5 star. Loved The Untamed and I love this book.
