Just have to share this book I’m reading. It’s brilliant, to the point, and so encouraging.

I’ve had a really hard time coming to terms with my ADHD dx. It’s partly because I still don’t quite understand what it all means and how it flows with and against my autistic brain.

RIP Baek Se-hee. Your words were so powerful. You will be sorely missed. #booksky

Trying these two chocolates, finally, for the first time. I’ve recently learned about Laura Secord, too. She’s known for much more than chocolate 🍫 #canadalife

1Q84 + Infinite Jest #tattoos 🙌🏾 they were years in planning.

I love these books an awful lot.

Here’s a book I started yesterday.
I don’t wait for honorary months or days, I’ve been reading and studying for years because it’s vital to my rooting myself in the second largest country on the planet, whose history is deep and vast (I’m very much a newbie - I will always be a student).

Today’s reads, all started on Kobo! I’m finally getting around to the Ishiguro before the film comes out! They’ll get minimum of an hour each. Please clap as I’ve found a little time for myself 👏🏾 #books #booksky #koboreads

Oh no… new books…

I was influenced by the authors style after devouring Babel and currently Katabasis… #booksky #newbooks #thepoppywar #rfkuang

I’m currently reading Katabasis; loving it. I don’t have anywhere to put the enamel pin I got with it yet.

I’m also supposed to be going back to sleep. Yeah, no… I’ll nap later. #booksky #books #katabasis #babel #rfkuang

I badly need to watch this. Figured I’d share and hopefully inspire someone to watch it too. #movienight

I’d love to discuss with other outliers who are keen readers why this novel (and his other works) still resonate.

Am I the “bad reader?” Curious. #InfiniteJest
March 22, 2025 at 12:23 PM
I’m not young, but I am autistic and I’m here. I will die on this hill. IJ is still one of my top 5. I’m the total opposite of the “litbro”, and I still found the story fascinating. #InfiniteJest

I’ve been watching Shōgun again and I’m on episode 8. I’m crying all over again. I’ve been consistently crying in one form or another since episode 6 🥲. My gods.

I’m 2/3 of the way through the book too. Very pleased with myself. Hiromatsu 😭 #Hiromatsu #Shōgun

Go see it. Added to my Letterboxed too. It’s brilliant. #Mickey17

I’m a simple human. If I see the words “neurodivergent/neurodiversity”, or “autism/autistic”, I’m reading it. I like reading about my brain and others like me.

I love the art here! I need to find a bigger version.

Also got this, which I had not come across until now. The amazing bookstore I got it from only had one copy so I had to get it. I know nothing about this book and I’ll find out once I begin tonight.

‘Empire of Normality: Neurodiversity and Capitalism’ by Robert Chapman.

Got a fresh new copy of one of my all time favourite novels, ‘Perfume: Story of the Murderer’ by Patrick Süskind. I see this edition everywhere and never got one until now. Yes, I will write all over it and tab it “gently”. I highly recommend the film adaptation too. #ReadingList
