Ohhh target - you are dead to me. #boycott

Yellow highlighted text from John Steinbeck’s book The Grapes of Wrath “..great owners with access to history, with eyes to read history and to know the great fact: when property accumulates in too few hands it is taken away. And that companion fact: when a majority of the people are hungry and cold they will take by force what they need. And the little screaming fact that sounds through all history: repression works only to strengthen and knit the repressed.”

Inspiration for my next protest sign.

It did taste sooo good. It was two layers with lime curd inbetween and crème anglaise with fruit on top.

That looks way better than the pavlova I tried to make recently 😂

Magical realism, gothic horror, rediscovering classics I didn’t appreciate in school lol, historical romance, and I’ve been getting into nonfiction that covers big historical events - just finished Midnight in Chernobyl and loved it

I am in the same boat, so to speak. I’m a reader and I love seeing what authors are working on/publishing but I’m on #booksky as a book lover who wants to connect with other book lovers

It’s mostly because I don’t see a lot of books in the genres I connect to. I appreciate fantasy and YA books and have read some, but I don’t naturally connect to them. It feels like most posts are about these genres. So I tend not to interact as much.

Book cover with black background. Image of woman’s profile, but the top half of her head (eyes up) is the head and horns of a steer in a vibrant shade of red. In large white text is the book title “Tender is the Flesh” and next to the title in small white type is the quote: “This book will pull you in, take hold, and not let go until you reach the final page. Without a doubt, my favorite read of this year. - Christina Dalcher, author of Vox” The image of the woman is stamped with a white circle (similar to a brand used on cattle) surrounding the author’s name Augustina Bazterrica.

Page of text from the Introduction to The Grapes of Wrath. A portion of a Steinbeck quote is highlighted in read. It reads - “…And since our race admires gallantry, the writer will deal with it where he finds it. He finds it in the struggling poor now.”

Picked up The Grapes of Wrath from my local library. It’s been on my list and I figured it’s time.

gallantry: the quality of being brave when something is difficult or dangerous

Last time I called w/out script I said something like “what you’re doing is…bad and not right.” 🙄

Thanks for the script! It’s always nerve wracking trying to articulate my thoughts over the phone.
