Finished reading: Bloodmarked by Tracy Deonn 📚
I might love this even more than Legendborn, which I didn’t think was possible. Tracy Deonn goes broader and deeper and is my hero.

Finished reading: Amsterdam: A History of the World’s Most Liberal City by Russell Shorto 📚
This has been a great read while wandering Amsterdam. I have a much better understanding of the significance and uniqueness of the city, and have been able to attach more meaning to particular places, than I would have if I hadn’t read it. Highly recommend.

Happy to have read it. Turns out vibes are enough when you’ve got charming characters.
Currently reading: The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers 📚
Now that I’m reading for vibes & character instead of a narrative arc, I’m enjoying this properly. The book didn’t work for me the first time I tried it.
