#JustFinished Project Hail Mary. Feel good story that’s a much needed mood boost in the darkest timeline. I think a bit overhyped on social media. It’s good, not life altering, but would recommend.

#JustFinished A Deadly Education by Naomi Novik. This is the third book of hers that I’ve read along with Spinning Silver and Uprooted. I’m a few years behind the times on this one clearly, but I’m glad I finally read it. I will definitely continue the series.

I took a few months off recreational reading since starting school in September. I managed to fit one last book in before the end of the year and I’m happy with it. My resolution for 2026 will be one book per month which I hope is reasonable enough to achieve between work and school!

August was another slow month for me and I fear September will be the same. Two books that I’m planning to read are CHONKY and I’ll be going back to school for the first time in over a decade and anticipate having no leisure time.

#Booksky June was a rough month, book wise. I had 3 DNFs which is a lot for me. Maybe that means I’m trying to branch out? Who knows. I also lost my streak due to being busy with work. Booo!
I think I’m going to start July with the next Murderbot entry. Hoping it’s as great as the previous one.

1. Alert, and please share widely. A lawyer at the ACLU has asked me to inform my transgender readers that they should NOT be applying for passports right now - the state department has not issued guidance to comply with the court order and they are urgently trying to get them to do so.

I am getting multiple reports that the Trump admin is NOT complying with the court order requiring passport updates for transgender people.
Some passport agencies are being told not to give trans people passports with their correct gender marker, for now.
