High School math teacher who LOVES to read. I also love math, but reading is what I do for me. I love all genres and read by spells, sometimes I'm all fantasy, sometimes nonfiction, last year I concentrated on Booker award winners.
I just finished Onyx Storm. Anybody else have the urge to start reading the series over again? I think I'm going to start back with Fourth Wing. #booksky

I finally put together my favorite books of 2024. I love them all equally but I ran out of room to show all the covers because I am a poor planner. #booksky

A mostly fun @nytimes.com article shows math of the lottery, except it starts with usual "you must be scared of math" trope. Is it that difficult to assume that people are reasonably intelligent?

A Mega Millions drawing turned up 66, 67, 68 and 69. Is that unusual?

Positively giddy to see SOMEONE YOU CAN BUILD A NEST IN on Polygon's list here! And to see Shesheshen's grin peering out alongside some of my books this year, including The Fox Wife, The Teller of Small Fortunes, and The Book of Love.

Thank you, @tasharobinson.bsky.social and @polygon.com!

I don't usually read poetry but the cover was pretty and I love all the post it notes. It's like the book came with recommendations., #booksky #poetry
