1. Potted up my tomatoes/ finally got some strong vinegar to try and tackle the thistle overgrowth in my back garden.
2. Rebel skies is turning out really good which likely means I will like my review copy that is a sequel.
3. Starting to make some progress in my grandma's apartment.
4. Saw a black cat with white face, and it's Friday the 13th (lucky)
5. I discovered a new crafting resource for vintage patterns.
I've read exactly 2/100 from this list.
Clockwork Orange and To Kill a Mockingbird.
Tagging anyone who hasn't yet tortured themselves with this list. #tlt you can find the list in @dabbe 's post.
#gardening potted these beauties today it finally cooled enough to transplant them.
I don't pre-order books. The closest I get to that is receiving review copies. So I've tagged my most recent one. #two4tuesday

The 1900s were not kind at all. I've only read 5 but I did recognize quite a lot of them.
pickThis book took me some time to get through because, life. It is a good examination of what it means to be a viral sensation and the positives and negatives that come with it.

1. Unplug often. read a lot. Get good sleep. Move more. Never avoid eye doctor, ear doctor, dentist. Surround yourself with enough positivity that you can handle it when things are bad.
2. 😎😅☀️
3. I watched sooshimango on the most recent episode of #masterchefAU

bailedDNF at 30 pages. Wowie first person with third person name usage. More telling than showing. Victim blaming. Eesh. I really wanted to love this story. So many syntax errors. So, so, many.
Just one week until sign ups open for #autumncomfortswap #swaps #solstice #litsyevents
I highly encourage homemade gifts and good condition pre loved books this year. Otherwise shop local to avoid nasty tarrifs! Link will be posted by 12 am June 1st.

#two4tuesday
I would want to learn Greek and Sumerian.
I have tagged the above because I think it is always easier to read something familiar in a new language.
In a few short weeks the sign ups for #autumncomfortswap will open. #swaps #events #litsyevents #solstice
A full post with details will be up next week.

I received rebel fire from Librarything. Yes I like reviewing books I do so here, on my blog/tumblr, via Librarything when it's a review copy, and now via bluesky. #wondrouswednesday
Just received my replacement copy of rebel fire yesterday! Now I have to step reading the tagged :)😎 #arcs
Owww...forgot to bring my seat cushion with me to work the election. Folding chairs are evil, so is the paper ballot system. Hopefully by next time it will be digitized. #canadavotes
Starting in on this. It's gonna be good. It's always good when they start with maps. #fantasy

My score: 25%
My least favorite is the tagged. I tried and failed to read that damn book 3 times because it was attached to a scholarship. That woman's writing and I just do not get along! @Lauredhel @Eggs @LeahBergen join in if you want to. Link on @dabbe 's post
bailedI DNF'd this after 20 pages. The first story features bestiality and rape. The second one features bdsm, veering into actual abuse and I think vampirism. I didn't find anything about these stories erotic, or well written.
#sundayfunday worse than movie tie in covers for me are when there is a sudden change in cover design midway through a series that I'm buying.
