OP isn't wrong, but whenever I see images of medieval beekeepers, my first thoughts always gravitate towards @evandahm.bsky.social's The One Electronic (T.O.E.) and that one Neutral Milk Hotel album cover.

Bookish problems: I got too excited about @emilytesh.net's new book and accidentally ordered two.

2025 book 57: When We Were Real by @darylwriterguy.bsky.social
In April I went to a book signing in SF & met the author. I wasn't familiar with his work, but liked what I heard & bought his latest book. So glad I did! A FANTASTIC read. I only wish it was longer so I could read more of it.

2025 book 51: The Truth by Terry Pratchett
I'm actually pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed this one. Probably in my top 10 Discworld books. I really didn't care for Moving Pictures, so my expectations for the next Industrial Revolution book were quite low. Glad to be proven wrong!

2025 book 50: Mutual Aid: Building Solidarity During This Crisis (and the Next) by Dean Spade
Part of this one were really great, but there were also large portions that were really frustrating. An okay jumping off point, but I imagine there are better options out there.

2025 book 49: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams
A re-read, but my 1st time listening to the Stephen Fry's narration, which was a delight. It's been years since I read the series, but I remember the 1st being my favorite, so I'm debating if it's worth continuing...

2025 book 48: To Be Taught, If Fortunate by Becky Chambers
This was the 2nd Chambers book I read and, after Psalm, I was kind of disappointed. However, as the years have gone by and I've read it a few more times, it's settled and I appreciate it a lot more than I used to. Good stuff.

A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson
This was an author recommended by a friend that has become very influential - I would consider this my favorite, but his science books were the most influential (and are an excellent crash course for many fields of scientific study).

![The book Hilda and Twig Hide from the Rain by Luke Pearson sits on my lap. The cover shows Hilda (a young, blue-haired girl with a beret wearing oversized red boots, black pants [leggings?], a blue skirt, a red sweater, a yellow scarf, and a yellow shoulder bag) and Twig (a "deer fox" - a white, fox-sized creature with a fox's tail, a deer's body, and small black antlers) explore a forest in the rain. An ancient burial mount is behind them and woodland animals watch them.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:wcixrzodk3324aj2v37nasq6/bafkreigjjb447hreqsyqnwulvf3mda4ckiyhzln3wiyhyxkoqxgwgtuavu@jpeg)

I don't think Virginia Woolf needs any introduction at this point. I like to read her when I feel like I'm not getting into my character's heads enough in my own writing since she's the master of the extreme version of that.
