It has been a while. I have been pretty, and haven’t been around much.
As for the books, I am still in the same place, reading Book 2 of Confederation The Better Part of Valour by Tanya Huff. Though I did spend some time reading a web novel, Book Eater, author is 메켄로 and translator is RainbowTurtle.
What about all of you? Which books have you been reading or listening lately?
I just finished Kiersten White’s Mister Magic and give it 5/5 stars. If you’ve ever been in a cult, or you like creepypastas, or you just like really kind and likable characters, give this one a read.
Currently reading I Contain Multitudes by Ed Yong and loving it. Microbiology is fascinating.
That house.
That house is fucking terrifying, the way she just writes it there.
What does being in a cult or liking creepypastas has to do with liking really kind characters? I think that would be in different spectrum.
It doesn’t, hence the word “or” instead of “and.” I was talking about three different features of the story, any one (or more) of which might appeal to someone.
Maybe I misunderstood your question, and you’re asking how those three things exist in the same book? The story premise is very reminiscent of the popular creepypasta Candle Cove. I don’t want to get spoilery, so I’ll just say, as someone who was raised in a cult, you can have some genuinely lovely people who were fooled or were taken in as children.
My question was a mix of both, thanks for answering. I’ll look it up.
