I try to take a walk everyday, and report on it.
I do crossword puzzles (American), and sometimes comment on them.

Music, cats, Thomas Pynchon, capybaras, modern art, food, ...

I don't have much of a life, I'm here to vicariously live by following yours. The things I post expire after 60 days or so. Not really worth saving.

He/him, a safe place where almost everybody (no trolls or assholes) is welcome.

Please don't do stupid shit.

Dear @bookstodon

I would like recommendations for books where the main character is a mild villain dealing with much worse villains and is telling the story as they go. Fantasy and Scifi are always comforting genres but I venture out for the right books.

I would also like books where men and women are doing things and are friends without a romance being shoe-horned in. But I concede I might as well be asking for a pony at this point.

Thanks for any help and or boosts!

Have you ever had occasion to say "The book made me do it?"

For me it was a trip to Syria 18 years ago.

I read Les jardins de lumière by Amin Maalouf (translated as The Gardens of Light) several times between 1995 and 2005. The story is set in 3rd century Palmyra and I was so intrigued and fascinated by the place that I wanted to see it for myself.

We also ended up with a dog from there ...
