And this is my current audio book. Starting a new audio book is fine, it doesn't compete with other reading time. I redownleaded Kallocain also (which I've read in paper a couple of times and as audio book once before) in case I need a spare one I can reread that. Not logging that one since I haven't started it.

I like this one so far.

I keep on starting books. I'm really in the mood for some Tolkien too, over Christmas. but I've got too many books started.

I don't read a lot of prose right now (comics yes: I recently reread the entire Tuva series for example. But also video games and watching Against the Odds on YouTube) but I still started yet another book 🤦🏻‍♀️ without finishing any of the other started ones. (But, keeping track of them on here might help me get to them if I get in a book mood later.

Now, my rule is to only log books as started on here once I've read several pages, a chapter or so. There would be many many more if I counted reading half a page as starting a book. That's just how fluttery my mind is. And why sites like this are a good tool.

I haven't started a new audio book either. Been a li'l overwhelmed with podcasts 💁🏻‍♀️

A rare DNF but I'm just not feeling it. Not into snarky books. Keeping my bookmark in so I can pick up later if I get more in the mood. I've read a gajillion manga on this theme and a couple of anime but I expected this to be in like the upper two fifths at least given how many recos I got for it but so far it's like in the lower fifth. Near the top of lower fifth (it's a lot better than say Only I know this world is a game) but not as funny as say Uncle From Another World or Bofuri or as poignant as Frieren or Lodoss. When it doesn't even beat out the horrible Greed Island arc of Hunter × Hunter you know it's bad. But! That's me being less than 5% in! I can certainly see myself giving it more of a chance later.

Here's one time I've really regretted using Bookwyrm becaune I did not know, did not want to know the subtitle of this book. (My edition doesn't have it.) I like just starting reading on page one and see where the story takes me.

I embarked on a reread of this. No promises I'll finish

The "26 books" were really a wild mix of lengthn from long things like Grapes of Wrath and Remembrance to a bunch of these "one short story in one single tiny book" books. This was a good one.

I accidentally picked up a non-fiction book 😰 I usually read her novels but here is her true story.

my new audio book after Anne GG

Not sure why I'm counting audio dramas as books and maybe that needs to change when they're this significantly different (I think. Because I hadn't read this book before. The only book where I've both heard the drama and read the book is Pet Sematary and those were wildly different). But I enjoyed listening to this story.
