No problem, hope you'll like it! It's a novella, on my ereader it was around 50 pages, but I personally enjoyed it a lot even it was brief :)

Since it was short, I was also able to squeeze in the other story from the same universe "The Angel of Khan el-Khalili" before calling it a day!
So- also book 16 done? ๐Ÿ˜ฒ

"The blood was only ever a means to an end," the vampire confessed in the interview.

"To what end?" the reporter asked.

"Blood carries vigor, life force, vital energy. That's what we feed on."

"So how do you get it, if not through blood?"

"These days, we make doom scrolling apps to drain it."

The alien ambassador sidled through the museum in awe.

"You Humans have so much art! Do you have machines to make all paintings, poems, stories and songs?"

"We experimented with that, briefly," the guide said. "But humans are both cheaper and more creative. And, well, we will make art regardless."

Folding the pages of a borrowed book is bad book etiquette.

Dungeon behavior, really.

Sometimes I miss my "gifted kid" years, so I compensate by reading what I enjoyed a lot (aka anything space-related) ๐ŸŒŒ

I've been saving it for my days off, but I decided to bring it to work today ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป

It's a bit of a bumpy ride (reading at work during slow moments) but I'm enjoying it so far!

Is it supposed to be this thin? Even the ebook version appeared longer!
I found this in a free book box and looks like the kraft singles of book editions LMAO

I never used AI. Never. I hate that crap.

I saw people writing long and meaningful reviews and I'm here wondering how I could put my disorganised thoughts like that... oh, well, i guess I'll have to figure it out in some way.
February 6, 2026 at 5:28 AM
I need to re-learn how to write reviews.
It has been too long since book analysis papers in school
(tips to figure out were to start? to not go only "woagh" or "meh")

A gravelly voice spoke from under the mayor's bed.

"I hear you need a monster hunter."

The mayor sat up.

"What? Who?"

"I'm a monster. I hunt. What do you need hunted?"

"Beklo the Ogre, but..."

"I'll bring you its head."

"How..."

"I am a monster under the bed. If it sleeps, I can find it."

I think I'm way too hard on myself when it comes to my writing. I put too much pressure on myself to make a shitload of progress on multiple projects.

I was recovering from a long reading slump, so I set my goal low: 12 books, one per month.
...
I'm currently reading book 12 and it didn't even pass 1 month since I started! ๐Ÿคฃ
