Sometimes it's a slow day at work and you've gotta amuse yourself. Sometimes that means hitting the Gainax Stance whilst you use a pallet truck as a scooter
What I read in July: Green City War - @aptshadow.bsky.social The Rainshadow Orphans - Naomi Ishiguro He Who Fights With Monsters (Book One: Outworlder) - Travis Deverell Japanese Gothic - Kylie Lee Baker Songs of the Dead @brandonsanderson.com & Peter Orullian Hell's Heart - Alexis Hall
Rearranged my bookshelves to put some new purchases away. Finally got my @aptshadow.bsky.social shelf back.
Just finished "Green City Wars" by @aptshadow.bsky.social "Racoon Private Eye, noir detective story set in a Solarpunk dystopia" is a pretty much perfect sales pitch tbh. This needs a 2d animated adaptation if anything. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
