it’s the best part of the year!! ♥️

(which had been my most anticipated book of 2024). Such a good year of reading; I read so much that shaped my thoughts and perspectives in ways I couldn’t have anticipated. We’ll see if I fit in a few more before the end of the year, but I’m already looking forward to 2025’s list 💛

I was working on an essay about the Percy Jackson series and nostalgia, so I read a lot of Riordan in the first half of the year. Then I read a lot of Didion in the fall — just because. My favorite book of the year, though, was unsurprisingly @kellylink.bsky.social’s The Book of Love ♥️🌕

The stats: I read 34 books this year (including two zines — they count!!) which was more than last year but fewer than I would have liked. 59% of these were fiction, and 91% were new to me.

Reading Wrapped 2024! I could use StoryGraph for another site to do this, but for some reason it’s more satisfying to track and create by hand? Let’s jump in :-)

what if, instead of grading papers, i could be visited by a heavenly messenger and taken on a tour of the sublime heights, the secrets of the universe slowly being revealed to me at a pace my mind can comprehend

This sums it up perfectly. It’s not a conversation.

“There is no ethical way to use the major AI image generators. All of them are trained on stolen images, and all of them are built for the purpose of deskilling, disempowering and replacing real human artists.”

Council of Elrond? More like Chamber of Echo! They could have invited a Ringwraith to the conversation, we're just asking questions about Shire and Baggins, but not these woke Elves! Oh no, they just BLOCKED us at the Ford of Bruinen—
