Jeśli lubicie książki Adama Przechrzty i fantastykę osadzoną w historii, a także nie boicie się naprawdę mocnych (pod kątem tematyki) śledztw, to powinniście być usatysfakcjonowani. Aczkolwiek traktuję tę książkę nie jak coś głębszego, tylko czystą rozrywkę.

Chapter 1:
The first thing I noticed here was how much this first chapter reminds
me of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. You have a really similar
style and I'm not complaining at all!
I also really appreciated how you used dashes instead of commas, most
people choose to be boring.
I loved the personification and the attention to detail, the way you write
things really makes me feel as if | am there myself.
Final Impression:
I was really hooked on reading this story and youdefinitely did not disappoint! I love your books so, so much and Ihonestly couldn't find much to nitpick at. I hoped this helped at least a tiny bit <3
I’ve just sat up finishing “One Day I Shall Astonish The World” by Nina Stibbe and just wanted to emphasise that she is an incredibly funny author and if you haven’t read her you’re missing out.
I’ve also found with Nina that her books work best on the page, there’s a sort of comic cadence in my head that even the best audiobook readers don’t seem to quite get. Or maybe that’s a me thing.
i'm not gonna give the title of the #book cuz spoilers but last night i read a book where rage femicide #zombie trump let jd vance fornicate with his "neckussy" it was droll, juvenile and amazing! i gave the book 5 stars and emailed the author i loved it!#scifi#bookstodon

Here's roach: a love story
A cockroach awakes one morning to find themselves transformed into a monstrous human. This is only the first in a series of increasingly disconcerting events for the now human teenager. It will not be long before Roach has firsthand knowledge of many aspects of the human experience, including: broken bones, broken hearts, bigotry and sadness; but also: Love, which in humans comes in many forms. So, that's nice, but will love be enough to make it all worth it?
So, I picked up this audiobook; Blank: The First Number
At 37 minutes, I thought it would be a quick read for the night before starting a larger book for the commute tomorrow
Unfortunately, couldn't get past the first chapter
The Introduction alone was a quasireligious celebration of an unknown quantity, complete with the full gamut of deitic descriptions ranging from nothing to infinity, alfpha and omega, et nauseum
I feel myself wishing for the last six minutes of my life back
Thankfully, I did not actually pay money for this...
Just finished "Four Lost Cities: A secret history of the urban age", by Annalee Newitz. Delightful book - I stumbled across it because it covers Cahokia, an ancient city full of giant pyramids that is near modern day East St. Louis. I'd learned about Cahokia in "Native Nations" and wanted to know more. (Never heard of it? Me neither, probably because the US pretends that native people didn't have big cities of 30k+ with evidence of organized religion before European colonizers showed up.)
Highly recommend -- it's a quick and engaging read. In addition to Cahokia, it covers Pompeii, Angkor, and Çatalhöyük. All three had fascinating cultures that are so different both from each other and from modern life. Absolutely wild to read about.
“Seven Gothic Tales” (1937) by Isak Dinesen is a masterful tapestry of storytelling. Though it’s deceptively named. There must be, through its digressively nested narratives, some 30 or more tales, to say nothing of the folklore, histories, fairy tales, poems, and novels referenced. It’s a heady work, the stories long, but so sumtuously written, I found myself pulled along into #gothic narratives of opera singers, sea farers, and unhappy aristotcrats ...
Book cover of the Irish historical fiction novel A Perfect Solution by Lorna Peel, book ten in The Fitzgeralds of Dublin Series, a family saga set in 19th-century Ireland. The cover features a late 19th century profile portrait of a woman with red curled hair, wearing a black lace dress, pearl necklace, and jewelled choker, set against a cloudy background.
Reading this One Yellow Eye right now & it’s the perfect grief ridden, plague era Zombie valentine. What are you reading this weekend? #bookwyrm#bookstodon#currentlyreading#horror
A cover one One Yellow Eye by Leigh Radford. It has a neon yellow cover with bright pink-purple letters. In the centre a mascara’s eye is open wide staring through a hole that looks like it could be a hole in the cover.
