I wonder if this is how everyone is destined to live: hopping from familiar space to familiar space until all the familiar spaces turn into one big blurry memory of nothing in particular.

Sleepy Readathon | June - Week 3
I finished two books - Tash Hearts Tolstoy and How To Be Ace. Both books with ace rep and both were really good 💜
Sunday night was F1 night again so skipped reading. Trying to listen to Bryony and Roses audiobook next.

Forgotten YA Gems is now on Discord! Join us for discussions!
We’re a Goodreads/Discord group that reads YA, NA, or MG books that are at least five years old. While not necessarily “forgotten” (as many of them have lovely fanbases here on Tumblr), we focus on backlist books that aren’t getting the same attention as new releases. Feel free to join us to vote on monthly reads, participate in challenges, and talk about books!
This month's reads are The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater, The Goblins of Bellwater by Molly Ringle, and Tash Hearts Tolstoy by Kathryn Ormsbee.
Have you read it? Is it on your TBR? What did you think?

I'm reading Tash Hearts Tolstoy and the mom is from New Zealand and in my head I'm trying to give her the accent but all I can hear is Rhys Darby's voice and it is difficult to say the least.
Hilarious, but difficult.

I reflect, not for the first time this week, that the twenty-first century is a screwed-up place to be. How is this even a normal human interaction? Back in the old days people waited weeks, even months, to receive letters, and that had to suck. But on a regular day, when they were out and about having normal chats, no one had to wait in crippling suspense to see if their conversation partner would deign to answer them. If said partner remained unresponsive for a full three minutes, the only possible explanation would be that they’d had a stroke, not that they’d heard the question and didn’t want to answer for another few hours.
