just a leetle post
20/6/22 22:50 hello friends, happy june 20th! i have read over 500 pages between two books today and am about to go to sleep but i wanted to say hello and show a sign of life on here. i really like dreamwidth! i want to use it more consistently, so here's an attempt at that.
first a request. how do you to the little > thing that opens into an indented block of text. it's like a read more cut but fancier. i feel like that's what cool kids do and i want to be cool as well.
second an update. i finished one last stop today! i liked it much more than i was anticipating and cried infinitely more than expected (i expected zero). it was healing to read something so queer even if the politics were a little [everyone sing a happy song together and the world will be perfect]. better in that regard than rwrb but yknow, still imperfect. i do think mcquiston gets a lot of flak straight authors don't though, and overall i enjoyed myself thoroughly, so it was a cheerful 4 star read for me. i'm also now 140 pages into she who became the sun which is, as advertised by everyone i know who's read it, an absolute banger of a fantasy novel. i almost dnfed early for triggering content reasons (feel free to poke me if u want specifics, it's a very Me issue and does not detract from the quality of the book!) but i'm glad i stuck it out because it's great. i have until tomorrow night to get this thing read and returned to the library after renewing my hold twice lol so i'm gonna read for another 30 mins or so after this and then read more before work. and during lunch. and then also after work. we can do this!
otherwise i'm vibing. i love my new apartment ;__; and my location. it's so lovely. i went from certainly wanting to go back to previous city i lived in in december to wanting quite badly actually to find a way to stay. everyone wish me luck. outside of my bedroom window is a garden. i walked to a coffee shop and the library yesterday and then wandered an orchard for a solstice party in the afternoon. lovely lovely.
that's all for now! i'm still writing. still watching 2 kids room. will be a lil quieter on twitter for a bit prob, but that's never saying much. it just feels like a season of frantically refreshing less. very "we have lee know at home" vibes (the home is my brain where i peacefully think about him).
what are y'all up to? reading? enjoying? feel free to ramble in the comments i love hearing it.
