Queen Demon | Martha Wells

Pickpick

I didn‘t find this one quite as immersive and difficult to put down as the first, but Wells is an incredibly gifted storyteller. There‘s plenty of action and deep history of the world Wells created. If the real world wasn‘t such a mess, I probably would have loved this more and finished it faster. Kudos to Wells for keeping me coming back.

*Setting out of office notifications on outlook (So satisfying)
*The support received on here with what my brother recently experienced, truly means so much 💙
*Finding that there's an audio book of the tagged read by Bronson Pinchot
*Books
*Hats for days when I have to wake ungodly early that read: Born to read books, forced to read emails

Nine Stories | J. D. Salinger
post image

This is the Modern Library Books 1953 Edition of Salinger‘s Nine Stories - minimal wear for its age.

Am looking to start using some archival sleeves for my prized books - has anyone ever used Brodart covers before? I‘ve never really thought about using them before but I do have some antique first editions that could probably benefit from some more protection.

Bookwormjillk Whenever they have conversations like that I think of Fival Goes West “There are no cats in America and the streets are made of cheese.” Sad chapter but I‘m glad they teamed up with the other family. That seems smart. 1d
BarkingMadRead @bookwormjillk it‘s a genius plan, i hope it works out 1d

ElizaMarie Glad you highlighted that quote. It spoke to me too ;) 1d
SamAnne Lord this chapter. 1d
lil1inblue @Bookwormjillk I loved the kindness and community spirit with the other family so much. It made the chapter easier to process. 21h
lil1inblue You are on point with the quotes you're picking. It's always something I highlighted, too. #greatminds 😘🤌🏻 21h
lauraisntwilder The dog and Grampa in the same chapter and it's only their first day on the road. Ouch. 21h
Bklover Well, that was awful. Poor dog. Poor Granpa. Oh, and they make me nervous every time they talk about their orange trees and little white house they‘re planning on. This doesn‘t seem like a HEA book, at least so far! 19h
BarbaraJean This quote stood out to me, too—and the next part: “If I go ahead on all of ‘em, it‘s too much.” Wise words from Ma. Also: I was all worried about the turtle and now this. 👴🏻🐶😭 16h

#wordoftheday

“This seems astonishing now, but we forget how confused and febrile those few weeks in 1975 actually were, the “reassessments” and the “calculated gambles” and the infusions of supplemental aid giving way even as they were reported to the lurid phantasmagoria of air lifts and marines on the roof and stranded personnel and tarmacs littered with shoes and broken toys.”

#authoramonth @Soubhiville Joan just keeps on giving.

Doll8455 People with dementia experience seeing a phantasmagoria of strange images that they are unable to explain because of their abstruse recall. 1d

Nine Stories | Jerome David Salinger
post image

This is the Bantam Edition published in October 1964, 3rd printing of Salinger‘s Nine Stories.

Started cataloging my library recently, I have a decent collection of modern, vintage and rare books and have started picking up some really fantastic editions and printings at Estate Sales this summer. Will show y‘all as I keep cataloging.

Leftcoastzen I love the older editions , looking forward to seeing your treasures ! 2d
