I’ve seen so many cool posts recently, the song title game, rock posts, favorite activities. This one is for the book readers, what’s currently sitting on your nightstand waiting to be finished?
My book tax is below ⬇️
All I have time to read right now is my school books😭🤣 I'm very much looking forward to a lazy summer in the sun with a stack of books❤️
@SpicyNSweet you got this!!!! Sending you good juju sparkles ✨✨✨✨✨
@acoustic_kitty I am currently reading The Correspondent by Virginia Evans and I just bought The Secret of Secrets by Dan Brown.
Open to recommendations 😅
@Gracious those sound like really interesting titles! I too am open to recommendations 🤓
I've been thinking about getting aquatinted with some goetia grimoires but I've been more on doing rather than reading recently.
Rotating between these right now. I’ve been wanting to grow some plants and make more out of them than diced tomatoes and salsa.
And I like doing math in occasion.
@acoustic_kitty thank you so much! I'm doing really well, it's just a lot of work 🥰 I couldn't imagine a world without cats by the way, looking at that book cover. ❤️
I would also try truth in a bottle unfortunately this book has not been written yet LOL
Immersive reading Dungeon Crawler Carl series book 7. It’s surprisingly popular with the romantasy readers. It’s hilarious and crazy, but has deep character development and loyal relationships through out
Reading is wonderful. I can go anywhere. Take a look it's in a book.. I really like The Neverending Story
@coolrunnings12 I keep meaning to check that series out. I saw your post on it and it reminded me about it. It’s definitely in the tbr list.
@mauvefox its really fun and kind of addictive lol. Some of the early books he’s just really getting his footing. I think it’s definitely worth checking out. A rabid fan base makes it all the more appealing
Working through The Portrait of Dorian Gray, mostly for an art project, but it’s fun to revisit it
I read Japanese textbooks.
The Origins of Totalitarianism by Hannah Arendt and Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda
I'm working on finishing Chain of Iron by Cassandra Clare. It's been on the back burner for about 3 years
Braiding Sweetgrass by Kimmerer
@cozycuddler4you I wonder what your impressions of Autobiography of a Yogi are. I enjoy very much his presentation of the astral realms to which the soul goes after the death of the body (Chapter 43). It's very inspiring. Some of Yogananda's tales are problematic though. I mean all the miracle stories he attributes to his master and other spiritual gurus. Some of these stories are very strange indeed, and Yogananda's unquestioning acceptance of them is a little disturbing, since they do not all show the master in a flattering light—and yet Yogananda seems unaware of this.
I am reading "Everyone Who Can Forgive Me Is Dead" by Jenny Hollander, "The Tenth Circle" by Jodi Picoult is next up.
Have you read Catcher in The Rye? It's really good. This kid Holden Caulfield goes on a crazy adventure. That's all about a person can say without giving away the book. Bibliophile is a person who really is into reading books
Both the entire collection of Emily Dickinson’s letters, and her entire collection of poems.
I have most enjoyed reading the Foundation series by Isaac Asimov I’m currently reading 📖 Forward the Foundation
@trysdet The Catcher in the Rye , Of Mice and Men , Pride and Prejudice, To Kill a Mockingbird , The Great Gatsby… just to name a few all time favorites …
The Poetry of Robert Frost and a book about Astral Travel are in my nightstand drawer… I read at bedtime 🌙
Rules of Civility and Murderbot Diaries
For fun, Martin the Warrior. For healing, What Happened To You. Both are great!
Working through "No Bad Parts" (IFS text by Dr Schwartz) and a very interesting collection of short stories from the late 1800s called "The King In Yellow" (Robert Chambers).
Nobody's Girl by Virginia Roberts Giuffre
Pronoia Is the Antidote for Paranoia by Rob Brezsny
