BOOK RECS
Okay, so lots of people wanted this and so, I am compiling a list of my favourite books (both fiction and non-fiction), books that I recommend you read as soon as humanly possible. In the meantime, I’ll be pinning this post to the top of my blog (once I work out how to do that lmao) so it will be accessible for old and new followers. I’m going to order this list thematically, I think, just to keep everything tidy and orderly. Of course, a lot of this list will consist of historical fiction and historical non-fiction because that’s what I read primarily and thus, that’s where my bias is, but I promise to try and spice it up just a little bit.

Good Morning/Afternoon Tumblrs!
PANDEMIC LITERATURE
As mankind's oldest deadly foe, disease has provided themes to literature since literature's very invention. In the European canon, no such work is more venerable than The Decameron, written by Renaissance humanist Giovanni Boccaccio in the late 1340s and early 1350s. "His protagonists, seven women and three men, retreat to a villa outside Florence to avoid the pandemic," (Referring to the bubonic plague, or "Black Death," that ravaged Europe in the mid-14th century.)
"There, isolated for two weeks, they pass the time by telling each other stories" — and "lively, bizarre, and often very filthy stories" at that — "with a different theme for each day." (The Guardian)

2020 Reading and Watching Resolutions!
New year, new decade, new books! (Though the first one I post will definitely be majority-read in 2019.) I am ready to go with a fresh new year of reading resolutions!
So my fiancee did point out an issue with my previous year’s list: I was having to pass on a lot of contemporary fiction and spec fic because I couldn’t find anywhere to fit it in the list. And while the list’s purpose is to guide me to new reading horizons, I do also need to remember that I am a member of the spec-fic publishing community now, and I should know what my peers are producing. So with a bit of trimming, this year’s list now has five Wild Card slots, as opposed to the one from last year. Hopefully this will give me some more room to follow my bliss, while still inspiring me to read things I might not have tried otherwise. (The watching resolution list is unchanged, as it served me well this year.)
So here we go! And if you have any recommendations, feel free to drop them my way!

Height: 5 feet and 1 or 2 inches (doctors and school P.E. class measurements are confusing 😅)
Middle name: Don’t have one
Put your music on shuffle. What are the first 4 songs to pop up?
You Gotta Not by Little Mix
Got a Plan (Remix) by Random Encounters from their Fnaf the Musical (Original Soundtrack)
What Is There To Lose (Interlude) by Tinashe
Fire N Gold by Bea Miller
Grab the closest book to you and turn to page 23. What’s line 17?
“Paragraph Focus: Are paragraphs consistently focused?” from my English 214 Course Reader
Ever had a poem or song written about you?
Ehh I don’t think there’s ever been one written about me..🤷🏻♀️
When was the last time you played air guitar?
I don’t remember. Hmm have I ever done it? 🤔
Who is your celebrity crush?
Lol lets see:
Fionn Whitehead, Tom Holland, Ryan Kelley, Chris Woods, Grant Gustin, Harry Styles, Nathan Adrian, Colin O’ Donoghue, Shawn Mendes, etc etc. (I would list some of the fictional game characters but then again they’re not actually real people so ehh)
What’s a sound you hate, and another one you love?
I despise to the core of my soul is that screechy sound that holographic notebooks have like the ones that shift from one image to another and also certain jackets make when people scratch them like it makes me physically cringe.
I love the sound of pops, crackles, crispy(?) sounds whether its from thick notebooks with tons of pages used, slime, soap cutting, etc like it sounds pleasant to my ears 🤷🏻♀️
Do you believe in ghosts?
I haven’t experienced ghosts (as far as I am aware) but I mean I sorta believe they exist. Then again I was raised to believe that cuz my parents are religious and also I’m into conspiracies about ghosts so those play a factor too 😬)
How about aliens?
Yeah probably, I mean space is super big so I do think there is a possibility of aliens.
Do you drive?
Nope, I most take the bus just cuz they’re everywhere
If so have you ever crashed?
Nope.
What was the last book you’ve read?
Well the last book I’ve really read was I think 1984. Hmm, I should probably read more content that’s not fanfic related or on tumblr..
What was the last movie you saw?
I just recently watched Infinity War at my Lunar New Year family get together (i know i’m late to the game lol)
Do you have any obsessions?
Yep. Here we go:
Bandersnatch, Dunkirk, Teen Wolf, Vampire Diaries (even though I stopped at like season...6? I don’t even know), music/pop culture, visual novel games, choose your own adventure games, Black Mirror, etc.
Do you tend to hold grudges against people who have done you wrong?
Umm I think that depends. I guess sometimes yes and no? My mind usually ends up forgetting what it was and pops up randomly but I wouldn’t feel the anger for too long. (if any of that makes sense)
In a relationship?
No. I honestly think I’m a weird person like I’m pretty reserved, prefers to hide in the background if i can, shy/awkward when you first meet me then afterwards I’ll be more open and casual but also sometimes (i will admit) i’m lowkey passive-aggressive but like i don’t know. I feel like no one would like me romantically...hell i could never get out of the crush phase cuz the guys I had crushes on before ended up making our friendship uncomfortable as hell 😐(sorry for going off on a tangent)

Michael Donoghue - Universe Eyes (Ambient)
🕑 Lesedauer: 2 min
Der folgende Track wirkt auf uns wie ein Blick in die weite Ferne und fühlt sich dabei etwas unwirklich und futuristisch zugleich an. Er könnte zweifellos Soundtrack für einen Science Fiction Film sein, der irgendwo in einer anderen fremden Galaxie spielt. Dies waren zumindest mal unsere ersten Eindrücke beim Reinhören. Sprechen tun wir von der erst kürzlich erschienen Single 'Universe Eyes' des Künstlers Michael Donoghue aus Jersey.
Seine Musik hat einerseits etwas minimalistisches an sich, das andererseits aber den kompletten Raum mit einer einzigartigen Atmosphäre ausfüllt. Dezent geheimnisvoll, nicht ganz greifbar und auf schöne Art und Weise leicht melancholisch gestimmt. Eine gewisse Sehnsucht können wir ebenfalls dabei raushören. Musikalisch widmet sich Donoghue lediglich seinen Synthesizern, die im Track in verschiedensten Facetten erstrahlen. Mal flächig und ineinanderfließend im Hintergrund, mal prägnant, funkelnd und klar definiert im Vordergrund. Besonders gut gefällt uns hierbei auch die sich stetig aufbauende Spannung, die erst kurz vor Schluss im Outro aufgelöst wird. Hört doch mal rein und überzeugt euch selbst, es lohnt sich:
Melodie: ★★★★☆ | Produktion: ★★★★★ | Arrangement: ★★★☆☆ | Energie: ★★★★★ |
Weitere Songs von Michael Donoghue, die wir gut finden:
Altitude, Captain Trips
