Apology not accepted...yet. We'll see how this ends. It took 300 pages before the conflict in the plot arose. Then another 83 for it to even develop. At least it's very good character work.

Such wonderful sentences!

#TodayImReading two books. I didn't plan this, but they compliment each other very well. Each challenging preconceptions re: developed intellect. One just does it with really cool spiders.

"'His name is a story, too long to tell'" Fool's Fate by Robin Hobb
Still reading and loving this book. But I don't love the cover of my copy. (The skin color and clothing of the man on the cover doesn't match the descriptions in the book).

I'm at the point when everyone's angry with Fitz and he's just trying to do what he thinks is best to protect those he loves. And I recognize this weight from days and moments when I've felt the same.

Amazing writing @robinhobb.bsky.social, amazing.

On MLK Day, let us remember his message. Let us not give in to fear. We are the light which can drive out the darkness.

“I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. That is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.” - Rev. King
