Reminder to actually set the deadlines on all the points of your to-do list for #languagelearning if you're using a digital calendar, if you're like me you'll forget they exist otherwise! 😵💫

I've started reading my second book of 2026, "Tentativi di botanica degli affetti" (literally "Attempts at botany of the affections") by Italian author Beatrice Masini. I'm usually painfully slow at reading, but this time I'm strangely earlier than expected

I finished "I hope this finds you well" and gave a first rating on Fable. To my surprise, they have now added the "spiciness" scale, totally not pandering to booktok at all /s

Today I got good news, but now I have to re-plan some things that are very difficult to re-plan (thank you, Italian beaureaucracy). Why does it always seem like good things come at a high cost? My karma is weird indeed🤔

Another update on the novel: it's getting very fast-paced for a corporate story, almost like some sort of action movie, and I find this choice really intriguing. 📚💖🐌
