There, I fixed it. But true though… #booksky

A tweet that says “ I need to find something fun to order online to ensure my will to live lasts at least 5-7 more business days” with “something fun to order online” marked out and “a book to buy” written above it.

the last book i finished was The Mimicking of Known Successes by Malka Older. it’s a sapphic sci-fi murder mystery - aka everything i’ve ever wanted. i’m trying to be stingy with stars this year, but this one’s going to end up 5/5 for sure. ⭐️ #booksky

A Psalm for the Wild-Built is a cozy sci-fi about a tea monk (Dex) and a robot (Mosscap) in a wonderful world that gives me hope for the future. #booksky

so far No Name in the Street is the kind of book where i want to highlight every page.

An e-reader displaying a page from No Name in the Street by James Baldwin. The highlighted quote reads “I thought of German Jews sitting around debating whether or not Hitler was a threat to their lives until the debate was summarily resolved for them by a knocking at the door.”

reuploading my january stats from @thestorygraph.com because i forgot to include my last book for the month. check it out! 📚✨💕

I read 7 books, 1968 pages, and my average rating was 4.33. Top rated books were The Hollow, The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, and Cards on the Table. Average book length was 279 pages. Average time to finish was 6 days. The graph at the bottom is pages read by day, but honestly I haven’t even looked at it.

I read 86% fiction, 14% nonfiction. 71% of books were <300 pages, 29% were 300-499. I read 57% print, 29% audio, and 14% digital. 5 books were crime/mystery/classics and 1 was essay/memoir. I don’t thin it included A Psalm for the Wild Built…

Dr James Sheppard’s friend Roger Ackroyd is murdered. Luckily, he lives next door to Hercule Poirot! The retired detective can’t help but get involved in the investigation. Growing his vegetable marrows will have to wait… #booksky

A collage based on The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, including:
-the cover of the audiobook
-vegetable marrows
-a sketch of a blue envelope
-a feather quill
-a stethoscope
-kraft paper with a sketch of an anthropomorphic book gasping
-a photo of a page of the book with the quote “The truth, however ugly in itself, is always curious and beautiful to the seller after it.”
-five stars

just highlighting a favorite quote from cards on the table by agatha christie 🃏✨ #booksky

A photo of a page from Cards on the Table that reads, “He played the part of the devil to successfully. But he was not the devil. Au fond, he was a stupid man. And so — he died.” “Because he was stupid?” “It is the sin that is never forgiven and always punished, madame.” Playing cards and a rainbow background.

Sitting Pretty is a memoir in the form of essays on Rebekah Taussig’s experience of being paralyzed from childhood. It’s clever, witty, vulnerable, and compelling. (1/3) #booksky #bookreview

A collage featuring the cover of Sitting Pretty by Rebekah Taussig, 4 stars, a drawing of a book, the disability symbol, a hand drawn rainbow, Quote: “Maybe some shit just happens and it’s not for a greater good, but maybe you’ll find a way to be okay anyway,” Quote: “You have what we want! What barriers can we remove so we can have you around? What do you need? How can we make that happen?”, Quote, “Access is a way of life.”

i’ve used half stars before, but my ratings are so arbitrary. in years past, i’ve given out 5 stars to any book i liked. this year, i’m trying to save 5 stars for only my true favorites so i can remember what those are at the end of the year. 😅
