books! wow!
Mar. 11th, 2019 03:36 pm So it's March and I'm officially reading books again! Finally!
A few months ago, I found Alison Bechdel's Are You My Mother at a used bookstore and figured, sure, I've been meaning to read this! And then I put it on my desk and I didn't open it until this weekend, when I read it all in one sitting (my favorite way to read).
I also read The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys this weekend, which was... okay.

Anyway! I'm currently trying to figure out if I'm going to read Tana French's The Secret Place (which I started last year in Portland and had to return to the library before I finished because I was moving across the country...) or Brideshead Revisited (which I've been meaning to read for almost a decade now) next.
I've also been reading Sailor Moon for the past month or two and I am on volume 9 right now. I'll probably write something about that once I am all finished with the manga. I'm debating whether or not I should have been listing Sailor Moon on my Goodreads, but I haven't listed any manga before so... why start now? I don't list webcomics I've read on Goodreads even when they get published as books, so...? I guess I'll figure that out later. I already had a crisis about including The Fabulous Killjoys in my "graphic novels" tag on Goodreads and changed it to "sequential art" so there's really nothing stopping me at this point.
In non-reading news, so many of my favorite musicians are releasing music this spring? Hozier's new album slaps, Andrew Bird has an album coming out later this month, The Mountain Goats are releasing a D&D themed album next month, and then Vampire Weekend is returning from their, what, 6-year break in May? I also saw that Marina Diamandis is releasing a new album in April...? Wack.
