tiny story time. 

Last year in summer, I backed a crowdfunding campaign for a TV adaptation of the German SciFi Epos “Kernstaub” - Universe of Gods - and not only was the trailer released today, but the team has also been working on writing a pilot episode, so they can successfully pitch the show to companies like Netflix and Amazon Prime. Just wanted to share the trailer here, cause I absolutely love the book (haven’t finished it yet, though, 800 pages takes time - especially if it makes you think as much as Kernstaub does) and I wish and hope for them to get the success they deserve. ❤️️❤️️❤️️

(and yes, my name is in the credits, cause I was one of the proud supporters)

Also: if you understand German and want  to read an amazing story about love and hate, hope and war and wonderful characters - you can get the book here

Beloved

This is my pic for pride month!   In the center I have night and day and my two favo ships at the moment. Of course my dear erasermic and the other two are Flover Nakamura and Luke Bible from the Neon Birds Book series. Flover Nakamura and Luke Bible: I loved the books and the two characters... I was looking for references for the two couples and found a pic with an old VW bus and... after finally reading the final book of the series I could see the both of them repairing an old one and driving through the world together. Oh an the chicken! I loved the chicken. it's name is Greta and really really great. You should check it out: Neon Birds, Cyber Trips and Beta Hearts from Marie Graßhoff. Erasermic: Back to Erasermic - no secret I love this ship. So I thought of a quiet moment for the two pro heros at work. Can be before the have to go to work or they both came just home and... need a moment to just breath. I like it   __

Two my little pride flag hearts - the first row are my beloved ships of my series, books and animes. The second row below... is a tribut to the communities of the ships. I don't ship those paitings but I love the artworks: all your pics, comics and storys - I have so much fun with it - so pleeeease keep it up

23 in 2023 Wrap-Up

So I made a list at the beginning of 2023, and did actually try to read most of the books on it! Results were mixed, but I did read a lot of books I'd been meaning to get to for some time, and made peace with many others. I won't be doing the same for this year because I genuinely don't have that many books I plan on reading. So here they all are:

Books that didn't come out this year:

Alecto the Ninth, Tamsyn Muir - I was very optimistic, but there was not in fact an official release date and there is not one now. I did read the new short story though, and it was very good!

Books I didn't start:

De Profundis, Oscar Wilde - Too stressed for something so soul-searching. Maybe this year?

Lord of the Flies, William Golding - I decided I wasn't going to put myself through this one again and let go of all my guilt about it.

War and Peace, Leo Tolstoy - Similarly, I finally came to terms with the fact that I'm not particularly interested in reading War and Peace right now.

Books I didn't finish:

Once & Future, A.R. Capetta & Cory McCarthy - Very YA, the humour was clearly targeted at a younger audience than me.

Cinnamon Toast and the End of the World, Janet E. Cameron - NOT in fact the lighthearted read its cover makes it out to be.

Beirut Hellfire Society, Rawi Hage - Not as interesting as the title.

The Personal Librarian, Marie Benedict & Victoria Christopher Murray - Might have the prose I liked least all year. The authors were telling everything, which made it very heavy-handed.

Station Eleven, Emily St. John Mandel - Too dark for me :) I regret starting this book. The prose was also a bit heavy-handed.

Books I finished that were Bad:

After the Victorians, A. N. Wilson - Written in 2005, and you can tell, because Wilson's opinions are stale as fuck. I can't really trust much of what he wrote because of that, though the chapter on crosswords was interesting.

Der Dunkle Schwarm, Marie Graßhoff - Dystopia with weak worldbuilding, and I found myself noticing plot holes, which isn't something I typically do.

Books I finished that were mediocre:

The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald - 200 pages of Nick feeling uncomfortable and also some commentary on the american dream that has become common knowledge in the intervening century. This book is for someone else.

Ships of the ‘45, John S. Gibson - Exactly what it says on the cover.

Company Town, Madeline Ashby - Interesting worldbuilding, dull mystery plot (why is it that so much interesting fantasy/sci fi gets saddled with the dullest of imaginable mystery plots?)

Books I finished that were good:

Blood Like Fate, Liselle Sambury - I liked this a bit less than the first book, but it was still interesting and unique YA sci fi! The romance was also well-written.

Legendborn, Tracy Deonn - Honestly I was mostly reading this for the (enjoyably) messy love triangle, and I would continue the series if it looked like my preferred pairing was going to become canon.

Worlds of Ink and Shadow, Lena Coakley - Wittier than I remember it being!

Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Truman Capote - Different, but just as good as the movie.

Love After the End, edited by Joshua Whitehead - An interesting short story collection. My thoughts were very much provoked.

The Sentence, Louise Erdrich - Literary fiction I found satisfactory upon reading that has somehow stuck with me over the last few months.

Books I finished that left me Changed:

Nona the Ninth, Tamsyn Muir - AAAAAHHH (highly recommend, this literally changed everything)

The Secret History, Donna Tartt - This book makes me think maybe I should be reading more thrillers? Or at the very least more dark academia, regardless of how cliche it seems for the rest of my personality.

Small Game Hunting at the Local Coward Gun Club, Megan Gail Coles - The best literary fiction I read this year.

In conclusion, go read The Locked Tomb.

Probably no one on this site knows about this book but I still wanted to leave this fan art here.
