we're all mad here
I have a lot to say on obviously queer books, but I literally just did that, so I won’t rehash it here! If you’re interested, here’s my post from yesterday, and the tl;dr of it is that I am sick to death of being queerbaited by book covers, so can we just? Make it obvious?…

I know what you’re thinking. It’s Thursday? But that says review and not Thursday Thousand? Listen, I said it right at the beginning of this month that the short stories might not actually happen, so instead, hi, we’re doing a review of Harry’s House.

At the end of the year last year, I did a post for this for the entire year, but given that I have a lot of books preordered this year, I thought it’d be fun to check out the first half of the year before we get to the second half, which is going live…

But it was starting…

This week’s That Artsy Reader Girl topic was actually a bit harder than I was expecting, though I think that’s mostly because I kept fighting with myself on adjective vs adverb. I’m not a huge fan of grammar, if we’re being honest, and I’ve been called out on it a lot in my own writing,…

Though this is labeled as TTT, we’re only doing five because that’s all I wanted to come up with and didn’t feel like trying to pull more out for no reason. And ICYMI, I’m headed to Portugal in–holy shit–three days! My flight leaves Friday evening, and I’ll be abroad for sixteen days. Since this is…
