It's always a good idea to bookmark this link as Terry Pratchett's books go on sale all the time. I pick up a couple of them every time i see them. I'm currently reading Equal Rites.

#BooksRead2025 #82 R.F. Kuang invokes some great atmospheric dread here (you just know this isn’t going to end well), but this definitely would have benefited from a bit more fleshing out of the characters and a lot more page length. Still enjoyed it though.

#BooksRead2025 #81 Terrifying in how close this hits to home right now. Set in the near future, imagine the people in charge of the US right now, and the billionaires and racists who exist in their orbit, armed with time travel technology. Now imagine how they would use this tech.

#BooksRead2025 #80 A Douglas Adams book I just recently became aware of. Part travelogue, part love letter to the unsung heroes working very hard to keep a lot of awesome creatures from extinction. Funny, informative, entertaining, and heartbreaking. The dodo chapter made we want to cry. 😢

This album has become essential daily listening for me.

Good Morning Blue Sky! Hope you’re all ok? Today after being a little unwell I am planning to finish the excellent The Salt Oracle by Lorraine Wilson. What Are you reading at the moment?

Sagan felt that the dumbing down of America was most evident in the rejection of science and the growing ignorance of history, art, literature, music and the humanities. If we're to reserve course, we need to revive mass education and literacy.

Reading House Of Leaves and my family probably thinks I’ve gone nuts; holding pages up to a mirror, translating pages in French to English, holding the book upside down at times, and just plain babbling to myself in my reading corner. *See footnote 289 Somewhere, Mark Danielewski is laughing. 🤪😱

I love how, in a 20 year timeframe, we've "transitioned to a knowledge economy" - but somehow also unilaterally decided that knowing stuff is so fundamentally worthless, it can be outsourced to a Magic 8 Ball stuffed with pages from a thesaurus by a handful of sociopaths six thousand miles away

It’s the weekend and you need some reviews and one line articles you read? Fear not Wombling Along is here to settle back with a nice cuppa and the you may just possibly need a book? www.runalongtheshelves.net/blog/2025/11...

Vince Gilligan looks to have another winner on his hands. Episode one of Pluribus was a hell of a ride, and Rhea Seehorn was brilliant as always. Can’t wait to see more!

Indulged in some much needed retail therapy today. Damn, this book is heavy!

#BooksRead2025 #79 I love Carl and Donut so much, and will follow them to the end! Fantastic sequel! Hilarious and surprisingly poignant, this series is a blast, and Jeff Hays’ audio narration is absolutely bonkers. Definitely in this to the end. #booksky 📚📚📚

We need no more evidence that he's a dead-eyed, dead-hearted sociopath, but we can at least add this photo to the mountainous heap of it.

Dr. Oz is a pickled scum-nut kook by choice but at least he moved immediately to assist; RFK Jr. hightailing it like he just saw an angry ghost is probably only the fourteenth most insane thing he's done this week.

Hell yeah!!! 1264 pages!

What a night. From VA to NJ to PA to NYC. You love to see it. Good job everybody. Good trouble.

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed. The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.

And now we go live to New Yorkers hearing news that a pack of their city's rich, festering ass wounds are threatening to move if their sex pest muppet loses for mayor

Busting out a new t-shirt for the holiday. 🎃

The new Florence + The Machine album released today, and it’s a fucking masterpiece. What an awesome way to usher in this year’s Halloween. Moving on to some spooky movies, more House Of Leaves, and waiting for all the candy loving ghouls to arrive at my house tonight. Happy Halloween everybody! 🎃🎃🎃

I truly, deeply hope that every one of you out there reading this has warm, dry shelter and a full belly tonight. It's so heartbreaking to think of how many out there don't. The chain reaction to cruelty the likes of which we're witnessing goes so far up the chain. I hope you are all spared from it.

Oh my gosh, do we have some banger stories coming when Uncanny X-Men returns. Favorites we haven't seen in a LONG time. Two of the BADDEST classic bad guys. Trial by combat against another group of Marvel Freaks. Plus, violence, revenge, romance, passion, and CLAWS. Happy!

#BooksRead2025 #78 Really enjoyed the 1st half of this book, with its crazy twists on what the monster actually was in this story, pushing me to say ‘what the fuck??’on more than one occasion. But this eventually evolved into silliness and boredom. I did love the very personal afterward though.

Good Morning Blue Sky! Hope you’re all ok? Today appropriately for starting a break in reading The Green Man’s Holiday by Juliet E McKenna (and things are not going to plan already!) whether you reading at the moment?

Tonight’s horror-thon continues.

Spending my Saturday night with R.J. MacReady. Seems like I spend a lot of Saturdays throughout the year with him.
