*✧･ﾟ: Currently Reading *✧･ﾟ:

Murder by memory by Olivia Write

Another Missing Person by Gillian McAllister

Foul Lady Fortune by Chloe Gong

Severance by Ling Ma -- I wanted to see if the tv show severance was based off a book (which would've been awesome if it was) and accidentally stumbled upon this gem.

Finished:

All Better Now by Neal Shusterman ✅ (I did like this one. He's genius in the way that he writes the characters. All of them happen to play a part in society and then he wraps them all together, in a way that you didn't see coming. Genius.)

Book 77 of 2024

A great read! I almost instantly had a dislike for the main character and I was right. He was one of those 'nice guys', obsessed with the female character.

I read this book in like 2 days, it was a very fast read and I enjoyed it, even when you know who is the killer, it doesn't take away from the enjoyment of the story. Liked that little twist at the end.

[egophiliac]

idia was an absolute treasure this update. you agree.

Idia really went "time for me to be a hero! but in, like, a super meta way" and if that isn't incredibly in-character then what is.

and of course we can't forget

I kinda hope he and Riddle get to do another game jam again sometime! it's nice to see them get along! and now they have, inexplicably...shared skills and interests???

“It would eat you alive, Sixer”

(Available as a print on my Etsy shop)

reading the Iliad is an experience

sleeping beauty (available in print!)

[ripeteeth]

bloodstains on blorbos and bruises on bottoms,

twenty-year age gap and tentacle cock come,

sobbing meowmeows all tied up with strings,

these are a few of my favorite things.

i’m writing a love song for problematic tropes

math fans 🤝 insect fans 🤝 country music fans 🤝 comic book fans 🤝 rap fans 🤝 furries 🤝 history fans

having randos pop up to say cruel things and/or offer incredibly misinformed critiques/fun facts about your interest whenever you have the audacity to bring it up
