'Dirty Girls'
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 finished Leviathan Wakes! Third (or more) time's the charm. Really liked it and am so looking forward to aaallll the reading to come. I think I may try reading the next one in book form, for lo, I am cheap and libraries are free. Then, maybe by Book 3, I'll have a new credit. I do like the narration.
Yay, success, finally!
Libraries may have audiobooks you can check out. Also, yay!
Finished Walking to Aldebaran and it got a lot more interesting than I was expecting. Did not realize that our boy Gary's name was an allusion until very late in the game, but thought it was pretty dang clever when I caught on.

Oh, wow, how did I not remember that for myself? Apparently, libraries=paper books, even though I know you can get digital content from them. Wow. I defaulted to my original concept of a libray. (At least you all have that same concept, even though you are able to modify yours, ha!)
I... did not pick up on the allusion in Walking to Aldebaran at all until you pointed it out. OK, I think it's good I'm reading again; apparently my brain needs a kickstart. It used to work better, I swear.
Most of the audiobooks I listen to come via Hoopla. They have so many!
Anyone read Alderman's The Future? I'm 20 percent in and enjoying it immensely, even if it's taking me a bit to get the characters un-mixed-up
Hi there! Did anyone else know that Victoria Goddard is offering ebook bundles at her website? Boy, when I've got seventy-odd dollars going spare . . . .
Oooh. I think I’ve already bought them all, but I better check.

I have not, but I feel you in the challenge of unmixing characters. I think I used to be better at it.
Today I'm picking up the second Expanse book from the library. Right now I'm listening to a Max Tegmark book on one of his more out there ideas - everything is just one big mathematics construct. I fade in and out of getting his meaning now that he's reached that part of the book. Fun listen, though.
This month's office book club book was God of the Woods. I made it about 40% through (on audio) before I broke down and hit up Reddit for spoilers, which I'm very glad I did because now I don't have to finish it. (There's probably a good book in there somewhere but I got really tired of being introduced to a new POV character every five minutes and then jumping to a different time period to make sure I, the reader, didn't accidentally figure out what was going on.)
That does not sound delightful.
Guess who forgot to pick up her second Expanse book last week? I'll put in hold again -- maybe it's still on site. That'd be nice.
