Cover of Far Sector by N.K. Jemisin Jmall Campbell and Deron Bennett

Between seriously cool sci fi world building, beautiful art, a painfully relevant message and one of the most interesting casts of characters, Far Sector might just be the best DC graphic novel I've ever read. #comicsky #FarSector

You don’t have to save your 5 stars for a rainy day.

If you love a book, give it all the love in that review, talk about it, shout about it to the sky.

I have no doubt he will be suggesting books to me in a couple months.

😌 it might have taken a little over 2 years, but it was worth it.

We went to the library and got library cards.

Obviously, I made him get Libby.

He looked so excited 😆 when he saw so many books in the series.

My master plan worked, after this I’ll suggest a few more Litrpg to him.

It finally came last week, I introduced him to He Who Fights with Monsters.

My brother loved it as I knew he would, after all, I spent the last 2 years building this foundation.

7/?

All I needed was to wait a bit more, the moment where he had time at his disposal but didn’t want to listen to world news.

The wait was worth it as I built a story about the different books I was reading that he would like.

6/? But this was perfect. The desire for books was there, I just needed to wait.

It took six months of research and reading to find several series that would cater to his new desire for fantasy.

5/? In a matter of months, my brother was no longer asking for recommendations, he was giving his own.

Obviously I was proud, but now I was already a year and a half into this plan.

I needed him to move to audiobooks, but he is a workaholic and didn’t have the time.

4/? The next part of my plan had to be carefully carried out.

I needed him to become interested in fantasy and scifi.

Mechs weren’t gonna do it, but Murim absolutely did.

South Korea to the rescue.

3/? A few months later, my brother told me all he had caught up on all his mangas.

I suggested reading manhwa and manhuas.

This was my plan, to show him different genres and create a demand for more creative stories.

2/? Several years ago, my brother complained about his anime taking forever to get to the good parts.

This was the spark that ignited my grand plan.

I suggested reading the manga.

Adding a little good to the world

Unfortunately, I need to write a book before I can publish it.

That’s so amazing!!

The gods blessed us with Yuri on Ice and then Heated Rivalry…. The world is starting to heal

😌 my power is growing

I just want to go play cricket 😭
