I’m from the UK but that feeling😭 real

john-paul @johnpaulk01.bsky.social · 25/11/2024

Cuz magical realism can have that lifey sonder aspect to that I get love in lit fic and historical fiction. The last one I read was just boring tbh and read very quest-like

Is ‘the quest’ aspect like a mandatory requirement for fantasy books? Because I think that’s what I don’t reading. The hero v bad guy thing too. Feels very predictable #booksky

Reminder that while bookshop.org is amazing and you should be directing your online book sales there, I'll echo others and say that for small publishers, one of the most impactful things you can do is buy directly from our website, putting money in our bank account today for operations.

I just learned that Goodreads is owned by Jeff Bezos. An alternative is StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform (and yes it's really easy to transfer your lists from Goodreads to StoryGraph). You know, while we're moving things.
