Just a Midwest gay in my 30s. Reading is one of my favorite hobbies! I mainly read fiction/fantasy, but I’m branching out to read more genres. Come talk about books with me!

Finished Animal Farm last night. What an amazing book. Orwell uses animals to show how the how revolution from a tyrannical oppressor to turn into totalitarian regime, even if you don’t know it’s happening. This book will remain relevant always. 10/10

Forgot to post yesterday but yes in fact I did finish it yesterday! Also watched the movie on Netflix, it a pretty good adaptation but as cliche as it sounds the book is SO much better!

I love seeing local businesses, especially bookstores stepping up and providing spaces for us to exercise our rights! Keep resisting, keep protesting, stay loud! ✊🏼

While independent bookstores are giving out free whistles, hosting protest sign making events, and donating proceeds to mutual aid, Amazon is *checks notes* providing technology that assists ICE in their terrorizing of communities.

Independent bookstores deserve your support. Amazon does not.
