Books Read in 2020

Picnic At Hanging Rock by Joan Lindsay

"Although we are necessarily concerned, in a chronicle of events, with physical action by the light of day, history suggests that the human spirit wanders farthest in the silent hours between midnight and dawn. Those dark fruitful hours, seldom recorded, whose secret flowerings breed peace and war, loves and hates, the crowning or uncrowning of heads."

Keep seeing these “booktok is ruining reading” and “ewwww dark romance” video essays and it makes me giggle because like this is exactly how the nineteenth century population reacted to gothic literature.

“Oh my god, don’t let your daughters read the Mysteries of Udolpho, they’ll become novel-addicted, sexual freaks!”

It’s crazy how humans do the same things over and over again.

“I can’t transform the world, Jamie. The world’s too big and too messy and too stubborn.” “Who said anything about transforming the world?” He shrugged. “What about just making it a little better? And then a little better? And then a little more, until, one day, maybe long after we’re gone, it has transformed?”

My fifth book of the year is The Empress of Salt and Fortune by Nghi Vo, courtesy of the Queer Liberation Library! (Go support them!) I'm really glad I had the right shades of peachy-pink for this; the cover is so gorgeous 😍

My rating is for The Empress of Salt and Fortune is ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐! I listened to the audibook read by Cindy Kay and it's well worth it. There's something powerful to listening to a story that is, in the text itself, being told to another. Its only two hours, and the narrator is wonderful. I've already got another book in the series ready to go!

Women buy underwear for the men they love. It’s economics. Data supports this claim.
