It’s a great app! And it’s not constantly asking me for money or signing me up for mailing lists.

Angry man who has taken on too much continues to comment publicly on things he doesn’t grasp

The wrong Amazon is being destroyed!

15) Recommendation; Red Rising by Pierce Brown. It’s the author’s first novel, very familiar structure, but it’s the entry point into the best character-driven series I’ve ever read. If every teen boy or young man read this series, good things would happen.

14) I’m not against marking up your own books. I don’t do it much though.

13) Nope. Fuck Amazon. I have a Storygraph, though.

12) I enjoyed quite a few school-assigned reads. The Giver, The Outsiders was fun, The Chrysalids, Animal Farm, Lord of the Flies…

11) I like nonfiction in my education field (poli sci), investigative work, history. Really hate memoirs, biographies, autobiographies, etc.

10) Don’t feel guilty about liking books!

9) I tend to read most when I should be sleeping. Also listen to audiobooks while doing house work, or at the gym, on walks, etc.

8) No idea for first book overall, but the first chapter book I read I can still remember. It Came From Beneath the Sink! Goosebumps book.

7) I’m not sure if there’s a series that got me into reading, but the first series I got into was Goosebumps, followed by Animorphs. The latter holds up much better reading to my kids now.

6) in the last month I’ve finished A Parade of Horribles, The Will of the Many, Underground Empire: How America Weaponized the World Economy, 6 Animorphs books with my kids, and started Empire of Silence (tbh it’s a bit of a struggle so far).

5) booksellers.ca

4) Rarely get to a bookstore, I’m more of a friend recommendation and library person.

3) Sci fi probably?

2) Top 5 at the moment in no particular order; The Dispossessed by Ursula K. Le Guin, The Jakarta Method by Vincent Bevins, Dark Age by Pierce Brown, Light Bringer by Pierce Brown, The Eye of the Bedlam Bride by Matt Dinniman. Always changing.

1) If audiobooks count (they do!) Morning Star by Pierce Brown. 3rd in a series of 7, last book on the way. It’s where the series really hits it’s stride, and the Graphic Audio series is a masterpiece.

Ursula K. Le Guin and Douglas Adams ❤️‍🔥

I think this is just a pure good take. Very few iconic or even recognizable designs, either.
