I'm not gonna lie to you, my dear book club. I ain't read a thing. I read maps, menus & some subtitles but that's about it.(Lie, I finally finished How To Be Miserable).

I already knew this would happen & that's why when I grabbed books, I didn't grab too many. 2/

I'm about 5 books behind my goal so I have quite a bit of catching up to do.

In other news, the new Creed trailer dropped & I guess I think like a screenwriter now because the movie's conflict is the same as my suggestion in March so HA!! 3/4 Link: https://t.co/9bF6Z3uhzV

ADDENDUM TWO: I saw this shirt in Little Toyko and was bummed that it wasn't in my size but found it on this site!! I'll have to get it when I get more money.

(Unless someone wants to buy it for me, in which case, I wear a 2XL. Just saying)https://t.co/52hpAp2f7l

I'm going with my big sisters so they got me, we're masking up & I know statistically, everything will be okay but ugh, stupid covid making travel dread worse.

We're going for a Kpop fest/concert thing & meeting old friends so I honestly doubt that I'll be reading much 2/

So I feel like if there's anything I've missed from not reading the first books, I should be able to catch up.

I'm trying to shake up my reading by going with mysteries. I love mysteries but romance has kinda overshadowed that in the past few years (Gee, I wonder why?) 4/

I still haven't finished any of the books I've started. Probably all of the worry of getting things ready blocking me. Also for some reason, I can't concentrate on my phone so I'm debating taking my tablet even though I already know I'm barely gonna read next week, lol. 5/6

I'll grab an archive of everything today to backup what we've done over the years. Here's the linktree to find everything: https://t.co/He9qSFv4BG

I think there's also a twinja reddit that @bangishotyou started so I have options about how to do WBC in the future. 2/

It's apparently harder than it seems so we're working towards being miserable. The author came up with the idea from a group counseling where he asked them if they could make themselves more miserable to which he got a resounding "YES" & some tips on how to do it. 4/

Yesterday was a day of tiny wins & instead of being all "Woe is me", I was literally doing faux-karate moves screaming "Yeah, I did the thing!". I'm about halfway through & in Part 3: Hell Is Other People.

I'm also gonna read the other books I grabbed & see what I'm drawn to 6/

BTW, if you've seen any cool SFF that's came out this year, PUT IT ON THIS SPREADSHEET.

My friend @renay, activist and Hugo Winner does this spreadsheet every year and seriously, anything SFF. Webcomics, TV shows, fics, podcasts, ANYTHING.

GO DO IT! https://t.co/UUqJrB28YC
