The Buried Giant by Kazuo Ishiguro. It's set in mythic Saxon England, when the land was mostly wild and people could still encounter ogres or other dangerous creatures. It's set in a town where there's a kind of collective perpetual amnesia, where their memories are all fragmented and dreamlike and fade quickly over time. People rarely agree about what happened in the years or months or weeks past, when they speak about the past at all. The protagonists are an older couple about to embark on an important journey to their son's village, but they don't remember why it's important or how to get there.

Now I am reading A. Dumas "Glaf of Monte Cristo", the second volume. For the last month, the desire to read has returned, I try to read as much as possible. The novel is very interesting and exciting.

The Giver, by Lois Lowry, I rated 5/5 stars. This book surprised me, I didn't expect it to be that good! It makes you be grateful for the life we have, the world we're living in

Xenogenesis/Lilith's Brood by Octavia Butler.
Also checking out Yokohama Kaidashi Kikō, which is super wholesome so far.

I've actually recently gotten back into reading myself, and have gone through quite a few books, but as far as right now, it is :
- The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand - The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood

currently rereading Georg Simmel's The Metropolis and Mental Life and Walter Benjamin's The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction because those shaped how I saw things for a long time, still very impactful reads for me so far

I’m working on 11/22/63 by Stephen King. I’m like a quarter of the way in but it’s intriguing so far.

Been reading Satoru Iwata's posthumous collection Ask Iwata which is basically just what's been available online for years but collected in an actual book.
Also been reading the Berserk Deluxe volumes as they've been releasing. Kinda been a hot minute since I read a novel |

I finished Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen and now I'm reading The Tenant of Wildfell Hall by Anne Brontë for one of my college literature classes.

The Wandering Inn
https://wanderinginn.neocities.org/statistics.html https://wanderinginn.com/ It's the literal best. (I also read other things but TWI easily takes up 6 hours a week of my reading time. So like a 1/4th?) Currently reading The High Mountain Court (The Five Crowns of Okrith #1) Trashy witch + fae + horny.
