[thedungeonbat]

@smalleffortsrepeated tagged me to name 9 books that I want to read in 2025. (Thank you :)!) Here's my current list!

Lots of Charles Dickens, Demon Copperhead which I’ve started twice but never found the time to continue and whatever else is on my tbr.

tag: whoever wants to share what’s on their tbr for this year :‘)

[crushcandles]

@likecastle tagged me to share 9 books I'm excited to read this year! Many of these are from this Polygon list, where they are speaking my language.

Parable of the Talents by Octavia Butler, both out of a desire to read more Butler, but also based on @candybarrnerd going nuts over the sequel.

Kissing Carrion by Gemma Files. In 2024, I had a lot of fun with anthologies and short stories, and I'm looking forward to keeping that momentum up in 2025.

Corrupted Vessels by Briar Ripley Page. I must have picked this up off a different list – I don't know anything about it, but it sounds interesting!

The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones. Both @candybarrnerd and I lost our minds over The Only Good Indians and I am READY for the story of "a Lutheran priest transcribing the life of a vampire member of the Blackfeet tribe, hell-bent on revenge after the death of 217 tribe members."

Bat Eater and Other Names for Cora Zeng by Kylie Lee Baker. I read the blurb for this on the Polygon list and am ready to be fucked up by it.

The Unworthy by Agustina Bazterrica (translated by Sarah Moses). Tender is the Flesh by the same author made me want to chew my own hand off – it was so grim and compelling. I hope this is similarly harsh.

The Lamb by Lucy Rose. You put meat on the cover of something and you can count me in.

Anime from Akira to Howl's Moving Castle: Experiencing Contemporary Japanese Animation by Susan J. Napier. From my understanding, this is a bit out of date, but I heard someone on a podcast read a selection from it about Spirited Away and thought it sounded up my academic alley.

Semi-open slot for some undecided as of yet Junji Ito work(s). I've only really looked at Junji Ito stuff, never really engaged with it, because frankly, it makes me feel unwell. But I'm a brave toaster now! I can take it!

As a bonus, here's a book I wouldn't say I'm excited to read this year, but I'm gonna anyway: Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell. I'm part of a casual three-way book (adaptation) club, and this was the latest selection. Not that excited to read it, but excited to examine the adaptation with some pals.

I'm clearly currently deep in my horror bag, but would love to see what anyone and everyone is reading. Not sure who's doing a lot of bookreading in 2025, so random pulls: @littlestsnicket @kuwdora @candybarrnerd @zambonirider @major-trouble. No pressure except for @candybarrnerd!

excerpt from ch2 of my danharry fic, Code of Conduct:

On Sunday night, Harry lays out his clothes and his plans for the next day. Tomorrow night, the moment Dan arrives, Harry will ask to speak to him privately. He’ll apologize not only for his actions on Friday night, but for his feelings, which he knows go unreciprocated. What he’ll do from there, he thinks, will depend entirely on Dan’s reaction. If Dan goes cold—if, God help him, Dan looks at Harry without the barest trace of the respect that Harry has come to treasure even more than Dan’s friendship—Harry will drop to his knees and clasp his hands in prayer and say again and again how sorry he is. He’ll beg Dan’s forgiveness and insist that it’ll never happen again and promise that neither their encounter nor Harry’s feelings will impact their working relationship. And if Dan hands in his resignation on the spot, Harry will probably at that point realize that he shouldn’t have said anything at all. One of his professors at law school had been an expert in criminal law. He’d made a name for himself defending the scum of the earth—the real scum of the earth, pedophiles and rapists and murderers, not the pimps and drug dealers and amateur con artists who came before Harry’s bench night after night and were often bestowed that title by Dan. Professor Purdy’s theory of defense? Never for a second admit one fact or one piece of evidence that indicates guilt. Purdy is who comes to mind when Harry sets off for the courthouse on Monday afternoon, and by the time he parks, he’s come up with Plan B: Deny, Deny, Deny. He’ll pretend as valiantly as he can that, actually, nothing happened on Friday night. He’ll smile brightly and look into Dan’s eyes and greet him like he didn’t spend half the weekend jerking off to the memory of the noises Dan made when he came. Seeing as Dan tore out of the room like his Italian loafers were on fire, that’s probably just what Dan wants. To pretend. Dan is good at pretending. Lucky for him, Harry’s good at it too.
