My one LOTR experiment ended with the first genealogy of a tree. That was 25 years ago, so I'm not entirely sure there even was a tree genealogy but I'm not about to try again and confirm its existence.

Just got done with Joe R. Lansdale's "The Bottoms", been wanting to read any of his books since I saw Cold In July. I'd definitely recommend him for a more rural/modern noir writer

Just finished this

Its like the second half of Steven King's It but starring the Scooby Doo gang vs Lovecraftian horror. It was a super fun read.

i'll go back to that again, but probably not until it no longer seems like current events. i would like to read
Homage to Catalonia given my recent interest in the Spanish Civil War and anti-fascism in general.
it was my favorite brother, the one who died of AIDS in 1986, who turned me onto
1984 when i was 12...he handed me a copy one day and said i should read it. he was so fucking great...i will never stop missing him. the only one in the whole extended family that got me at all.

i need to plow through the 3 books i have in the on-deck circle, so i can dig into the one my supervisor at work just loaned me: Here, There, and Everywhere: My Life Recording the Music of the Beatles by Geoff Emerick, who was second engineer on almost all of the Beatles' recordings. hoping for insight as to how in flaming hell they did Sgt. Pepper on 4-track r2r.

I'm having to unload a lot of books for the move, putting most of my library on a kobo except the box I'm keeping, but people keep on giving me books! But I finally get to read Christopher Moore's Coyote Blue!
