I want to love this book so much, but it's riddled with typos. For a book published by a university press and edited by a credible professional, this really pains me. Furthermore, this is a book about books!

Cover of a hardcover book showing a gryphon, Alice from Alice in Wonderland (girl with blonde hair in a blue dress) sitting down, and a creature with the head of a hare (crying), body of a sea turtle, and tail of a lion(?) congregating in a discussion on a beach by a body of water in the background.

🪐📚💙 #currentlyreading ALL THAT WE SEE OR SEEM by @kyliu99.bsky.social Thanks to @netgalley.bsky.social and @sagapressbooks.bsky.social for the ARC. 70% of the way through and am loving it so far. 😍 If you love techy sci-fi thrillers, you'll want to read this book.

Book cover for All That We See or Seem by Ken Liu. A glitchy and techno aesthetic cover.

All the more reason to not support Audible and Amazon 🤬 youtu.be/AfSWV4O8tMY?... Not clickbait. As book lovers, readers, and authors it is important to stay educated on the way authors are being cheated of their dues. And how we, as readers, can help fight back. 📚💙

@seattlein2025.org, thank you for all your hard work in making #worldcon happen this year. 🙏 It was our first time attending and now we are in it for life. We have found a new side to the SFF community and Fandom that we didn't realize was there this whole time. May you enjoy your well-earned rest.

It has been a whirlwind of a week observing and engaging with the SFF community at #worldcon. Haven't been in the head space to do any reading cuz of all the fun. 😄 As things calm down, I'm diving into Ethan of Athos by Lois McMaster Bujold 🎉 #currentlyreading #books 🪐📚💙
