Starting next because might be on #ToB2025 Long List? #Hurryupalready

pickThis volume collects the scripts from season one of the absurdly brilliant Welcome to Night Vale podcast plus behind-the-scenes introductions to each episode. This is my brand of weird and I feel no shame about that. Actually, I feel no shame or really any other emotion…I am suspended in a jar of jelly that isn‘t really jelly, just the consistency of what you know to be jelly. Send help. Or don‘t. It‘s whatever.
Yep. 😆
I turned in my ballot a couple of weeks ago, and today, I'm seeking peace and hope in the midst of uncertainty. Even though I'm in the middle of too many “required“ reads right now, I'll be setting aside time tonight for the #ComfortReadathon... maybe I can sneak in a quick graphic novel!
Some potential late October spooky reads.
pickFor much of the story, you have no idea about the why. Which I think adds to the suspense. This felt a lot like being on a rollercoaster blindfolded. The fear of not knowing what might happen next is delicious. And it really unfolds brilliantly. It covered so many themes I wasn't expecting! Which gave it great depth. Even at the end, it just kept giving me more things to ponder. I would love to know some specific backstory. I really enjoyed this.
Another new pickup!
For day 14 of the #hauntedshelf book cover hunt we've got one of my very favourite grey books I've read recently! And it's a spooky one too.

panIt‘s not for everyone. The choice of storytelling. The character voice or the non-linear as linear. It‘s the issues faced by teens, but the distractions in this book as asides made it hard for me to understand…anything. Some may like it. I just didn‘t vibe with it. Gave up 3/4 way through.
panTo be honest I have no clue what I just read. The story is pretty clear but there‘s so much going on around it. In linguistics, in plot, in characters, in layers. Maybe it‘s good but it was hard to keep track and I lacked motivation towards the end.
