i keep getting SO EXCITED about reading. like ive been slowly increasing how much i read for a while now but these past two years ive getting increasingly pumped about grabbing books i feel like i rediscovered some childlike joy i didn't realise i'd forgotten. i think it's a bit to do with having an ereader which allows me to read things i pirate when im not on the computer, having a two hour long commute, which means i get a lot more time to read, getting into annotating books which makes it very exciting for me (i love colors and writing down thoughts and i feel like i am remaking the book a little!) and finishing university which means i dont feel guilty all the time for reading fiction and not the thousands upon thousands required pages of historiography (now i can pick my own historiography to read!!! bought Rediker's Villains of All Nations which ive been meaning to get to for AGES also since im starting to work on my thesis i get to finally read FOR university things that interest ME specifically aka religious history of ancient mesopotamia instead of like economic/legal history of early contemporary spain. god bless.)

CNN — As visually impaired Spanish runner Elena Congost approached the finish line in the women’s T12 marathon on the final day of the Paralympics, she and her guide, Mia Carol, began to discuss the bronze medal they were about to win.

Having run for three hours, Congost and Carol were a good three minutes ahead of Japan’s fourth-placed Misato Michishita and her guide. So comfortable was their lead that, with Carol cramping up, Congost agreed to slow down.

But just 10 yards away from the finish line, Carol stumbled. Congost helped him, briefly letting go of the tether – which blind and visually impaired runners use so that their guide can keep them on the right track – to stop Carol from falling to the ground.

With Carol running steadily again, he and Congost crossed the finish line to claim the bronze medal – or so they thought. Shortly after, organizers ruled that Congost was disqualified from the race for letting go of the tether to help her guide.

Rule 7.9.3 of the World Para Athletic Rules and Regulations states: “The athlete and their accompanying guide-runner shall retain the tether attachment from the start of the race until the end of the race” and that “No release shall be allowed until after the athlete and their accompanying guide-runner have both reached the vertical plane of the nearer edge of the finish line and finished the race.”

Story continued.

kdjgglkdfjg gracias miu ♥

5. What genre did you read the most of?

Mmmh it's likely that it was nonfiction but other than that probably fantasy, I'd say!

13. What were your least favorite books of the year?

Cadáver exquisito by Bazterrica which I've already talked about, La Argentina de los Caciques by Martínez Sarasola, which is a nonfiction "essay" that made me genuinely angry (piece of shit was just copypasting primary sources. I can just go look them up. This isn't a book), and Tierra, Leyes, Historia by Congost, which I had to read for college and was the most boring thing on earth and also completly unsuccessful in explaining what the fuck the process of creation of private property as we know it was in early modern Spain.

24. Did you DNF anything? Why?

I don't DNF books cause im a pussy 🥺 what if this book i hated for 700 pages gets good in the 100 pages that remain.... the closes ive gotten was with La coscienza di Zeno by Svevo which I can't stand but have been reading for the past... three years?

I already answered 11 ♪
