46% into Exordia by Seth Dickinson and we're quoting the Oath from @diane.dianeduane.com's Young Wizards books. The back half of this book will have to work hard to make me not love it.

Having finished Seasonal Fears by Seanan McGuire, I can intellectually understand why people didn't like it.

Emotionally, I'm hissing at them and holding the book protectively.

Every time I watch Alien, I'm once again amused to note the entire plot happens because of ignored safety procedures.

Sometimes you finish reading a Seanan McGuire book and then go stare at a wall for 3 hours.

Good wall.

Anyways, Middlegame. Go read it. And then stare at a wall.

I've been thinking about this poem by Langston Hughes recently and although it was published in 1931, it remains relevant as ever.

#books #reading #booksky #poetry
A poem by Langston Hughes titled "Tired". It reads as the following: "I am so tired of waiting, Aren't you, For the world to become good And beautiful and kind? Let us take a knife And cut the world in two -- And see what worms are eating At the rind."
