I am weird with audiobooks. I can’t read right now because TOO MUCH READING because of work from home. I can listen to podfic and podcasts, but not actual audio books? I am weird. And I hardly want to watch anything, I just want to keep my eyes closes when I am not working.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I really can't deal with audiobooks
It's not just you. I hate them with a passion. Not sure why, as I'm all about podcasts.
hippocamp, nope...or I didn't register it because I was digging on Mach1na

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Ooh, good one, Consuela. Im mildly irritated they didn't make that available when I went on an Auten kick a month or two back, but that sounds like something I should keep handy. Like Sophia, I often cannot deal with taking in anything through my eyes in my leisure time, but I can and do listen to audiobooks. And something I have read before and theoretically won't mind falling asleep during is a bonus

I love the Goblin Emperor's world - and I'm hopeful for more of that kindness, no matter what. It's so very Sarah. Also more clocks. and bridges.

Now tagless for your comfort.
You suggested Book of Ages by Jill Lepore so I sent that and Hidden in Plain View : A Secret Story of Quilts and the Underground Railroad and she was very pleased.
aurelia, I'd suggest Never Caught: The Story of Ona Judge (especially since she liked Hidden in Plain View). Also, I enjoyed Bonnie and Clyde: The Making of a Legend by Karen Blumenthal.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Thank you, Cashmere!

Because books.
As usual, I'm reading books way past their debuts, and I just started The Monsters of Templeton by Lauren Groff. Anyone else read it?

Amy, that looks good and it turns out I already own the ebook.
I just finished Catherine House which was so good if you like dark academia.

Oh, that's on my wish list! It looks like exactly my thing.

Because books.
Way to post and forget half of what I was going to say! I Monsters is big and complex but wonderful. I live everything about it so far.
And Kindle $1.99 deals are an indulgence I always allow myself, so I have a zillion books on my Kindle I haven't read yet. The problem is I forget t they're there, so every once in a while I have to scroll through the whole list.
