“… existing tariffs from the first Trump administration remain in force. In particular a 7.5% tariff still applies to books printed in China and as the trade war with China heats up, this is likely to rise.”

For the record, I do think D.H. Lawrence is a genius and that his work is still incredibly relevant to today’s society

Don't be a terrible person, idk what to tell you 🤷🏻‍♂️ also, reading is subjective and review spaces are NOT for authors so authors shouldn't be in them.

Not the best transition video l've ever done but each book fits the lines I showed them at 🫶🏼

New video up on my YouTube channel. The channel is fairly new so I’m still learning how everything works. Be gentle with me lol

When I say I think about The Locked Tomb series all the time, I’m not joking. I just sent this text to my best friend because I literally can’t concentrate because I’m thinking about Gideon and Harrow.

After several conversations with different people lately, I just wanna say one thing: being in a blue state will mean absolutely nothing if a federal book banning law is put in place, or any over arching federal law for that matter.

Reading 1984 and seeing the similarities between it and the current reality of what’s going on in America is absolutely terrifying. We’re in the bad timeline 😭

Every time I read Gideon the Ninth I’m never prepared for Gideon’s death and it kills me each time. And the scene with Harrow afterwards. Ugh! I am UNWELL!!!

I started scanning my books into Libib. Just finished scanning my first bookcase and it contained 237 books. This doesn’t include my other two bookcases and all the books spread out throughout the various rooms, nooks and crannies in my apartment 🥲 I might have an issue when it comes to book 😅🙃😁😂

Just rechecked my 2024 music stats and apparently I listened to the Arcane album so much in December that it dethroned the Take Me Back to Eden album as my top album of the year 😅 it also kicked two artists out of my top 5 for the year 😅

I always set my reading goal to be this low because I know myself. I tend to do most of my reading during the fall and winter months with only a few books here or there in the spring and summer months. The hours and pages goals are set by multiplying the average length of a book or audiobook by 12.

Currently at Kia for an oil change and everyone here is reading while they wait (including myself) and I love that for them (and for myself lol)

Fun facts! Even if you don’t plan to use it, having a library card helps secure funding for your local library which in turn keeps them open and thriving for the entire community. Every library card is a good library card!

I used to be someone who never DNF’d a book. Now I’ll DNF a book after 3 chapters if something gives me the ick. And honestly, I love that for myself.
