Book recommendations to start 2025
Hi everyone! So, as you probably have heard by now, Bookshop is now selling E-Books now! Their mobile app isn't fully accessible, yet, on IOS, so I spent some time penning a very detailed bug report to their accessibility team.
And yes, I did show them my initial app impressions.
But because Bookshop has E-Books and print books, now, this will make affiliate linking much easier, so, starting, well, okay, I don't know when I'll start doing this, I'm currently to busy trying to desperately explain to all my Black Trump supporting friends that actually yes you did vote for a fascist and being Black doesn’t insulate you from making a foolish decision, but I digress, because they believe my anti-capitalist views don't make sense, and they think I'm constantly high. I can assure you this isn't the case.
But anyway, getting on track! Book recommendations from me! Yes, I'll start doing these more! Starting now.
By the way, the Pass the Salt audio book is still in the works. The publisher said that my first audio book choice didn't reply. My hope is that my second audio book choice, Gabriel Michael, and or my third audiobook choice, Michael Gallagher, will say yes and pull through!
Off the Grid will be narrated by Sean Crisden and will be published in 2026.
Until next time, toodles, and here's some book suggestions.
My book life.
I picked up Fourth Wing because the hype made me curious, and, while I too thought Xaden was an extremely sublime shadow daddy, even though he's younger than me, Onyx Storm made me tired. I'll still continue, but I think my new rule will be to read book series after they are complete.
Given the political climate I'm in with fascism breathing down my country daily, I decided to try to read 1984 again and it just hits to close to home to finish it all in one sitting. Still, this book is illuminating in so many ways I’d encourage everyone to read it again, even today.
Death of the Author gripped me because I constantly fear fame and hype for my own work, so this one sucked me right in and I finished it in a day.
Tomorrow, Tomorrow, and tomorrow, was wildly unexpected. I thought it was a satire at first but I enjoyed my time with it even though it's not a satire.
I haven't read Stephen King since I was eight years old, yes, my grandparents encouraged me to read adult books and ask questions later, but I picked up Under the Dome and I just kept getting distracted. I don't think Stephen King is for me, except for Carrie.
