I just finished reading this and thought it was a lot of fun. I look forward to the next one.

I just finished a re-read of Tehanu, by Ursula K. Le Guin.

@kristianeleigh @bookstodon I'm currently reading A Desolation Called Peace by Arkady Martine, though I haven't gotten very far yet. I liked the first book (A Memory Called Empire) in the series, though, and so far I'm enjoying this one too.

@nebulanix @kristianeleigh @bookstodon I appreciate this, since I also enjoyed the first book.

@nebulanix @bookstodon I think I’ll have to add those to my list!

@kristianeleigh @bookstodon To keep the rest of December light, I'm going to be tackling poetry, and reading the graphic novels which my favorite reference librarian has recommended. I have loved 100% of her rec's! Next up:

Eight Billion Genies, Charles Soule, Ryan Browne (illustrator)
American Born Chinese, Gene Luen Yang, Lark Pien (illustrator)
Okinawa, Susumu Higa, Jocelyn Allen (translator)

recently finished Us by Sara Soler and it was an excellent graphic novel about transitioning, told with such tenderness, care, and exuberance!

@kristianeleigh @bookstodon I just started the murderbot diaries and also just found out they're being adapted for TV so I'm trying to imagine how that would work...

@moopet @bookstodon That series is on my list!
