I wish people would quit acting like the trafficking is even the worst part. It’s not, which is the worst part. The worst part is that the sex crimes are not the worst part, but the international conspiracies to undermine democracy are the worst part. 🤯

I’ve lived a whole life since then! The next summer after Shangri-La was my first GOTJ. 💎 🪓

That’s a lot!! 😳

Is her part Thalia? 🫶🏻

It’s acorn nuts for me.

We went to DC & NYC, too, in 1993 from Birmingham, AL. It’s a key memory, which is why I took my kids in 2023 to DC- I was so afraid it would turn out like it has. 😢

I’m resting my brain for the rest of today and then I’ll probably start some classic Stephen King. Either the Shining or Salem’s Lot? I have some NK Jemison books, Stephen Graham Jones, and Stormlight Archive also on my physical TBR.

Mistborn/the Cosmere is also great! 😊

I’ve been there! They are just a tool and it’s going to be OK. 🩵

It was my first, too! I’ve read some more since then. I can’t believe I made it all the way through the 90s never reading any King!

Of these, I’ve read Fairy Tale and thought it was fantastic!

I have to do this soon! I sort by genre and paperback vs. hardback generally, then by vibes. 🙃

My vote is for 2 😎

My birthday. 🎂 🥰

This book was wonderful! 👏🏻
