“you read my mind”
“no actually it’s only reading if it’s printed text, i listened to your mind on audio”
folks often questioning “are audiobooks reading” but will go along to ‘a reading’ where the author just says the words out loud to you
Thank you! 🙏 Pain in the butt to put together, but I am always happy with the outcome.
The list of awards is endless. Planning to do a 101 of like 20 I’m interested in at some point!
So I do this monthly ‘book news’ video, covering some stories that have interested me, book prizes, new releases, and all that jazz.
It’s been on a little hiatus, but back for February.
Sharing in case it’s of interest to anyone here.

I did set up a LitFic feed a while ago. It also looks for posts about some of the bigger literary fiction book prizes.
In case that sounds like anyone’s jam:

Glad you like it! Hopefully over time more people will manage to find it 😊
The challenge would be great if people were encouraged to share why each book stuck with them 🙂
Ah, it’s because the hashtag for the game #SplitFiction has ‘LitFic’ in the middle of it.
Just updated the feed so hopefully fixed!
‘yourself’ is not a formal way of saying ‘you’
Oh right yeah, books. The Nero Book Awards lists are really good. Pleased to see all the Irish lit, and thrilled for @deadinkbooks.bsky.social nabbing a nomination.

I’d like to address the heterosexuality rumours:
If I were cynical I’d say Waterstones just had a lot of those gold copies of Butter it needed to shift.
But I’m not cynical.
This explains why it’s on its own table in many bookshops: a dedicated Sad Irish Millennial Fiction section.
Now reading Milkman and very much enjoying it 🥛

I am! Thank you, I’m glad you like them 🙏
I find the only way to cope is to just not think about it, and cover up the guilt-inducing books with more books.
Honestly like 15 years… maybe more 🥲
This place has big coffee shop inside a bookstore vibes and I’m here for it
my love language is buying books but not reading them for at minimum 3 years

romanticise your toxic traits by calling them your “love language”
Living up to your username! 😅
A truly wild ride!
