I AM attempting to read at least four books this weekend and that IS ridiculous but alas, here we are.
#no one look at my other fucking post I am NOT attempting proust okay#these are books of reasonable length.#here's my thing with proust. yeah yeah 'perfect novel' fuck you. that is not a novel. that is a series.#I don't care if it's one entity. so the fuck was lord of the rings and we have deemed that three books at this point.#just because a story is sustained does NOT make it a singular novel. I'll kill.#to be clear this is a joke. as mentioned I know literally nothing about proust and I have already forgotten the novel's title.#as per fucking usual.#honestly I'm gonna read it someday solely so maybe I understand what the fuck people are talking about.#anyway the books for the weekend are: authority (vandermeer). the gift of knowledge/ttnúwit átawish nch'inch'imani (beavert).#acceptance (also vandermeer). waterlog (deakin).#YES I once again saw robert macfarlane's name and blacked out and purchase a book. do not @ me.#(I did want to read waterlog after having read landmarks and then saw the new paperback edition on a stand at the bookstore so shhhh)#megs is reading#in my defense I'm going to be spending a lot of time waiting this weekend considering my spouse is in a race not designed for spectating#(it's a massive seven-part relay. and he's in a part where you can't even get in to spectate so.)#I'm mostly tagging along with my sister and her bf's friends so. books are necessary.#I've always been that dweeb with the book in social settings and I'm not about to stop now.
