I have started playing this weekend the game Metro Exodus and it is pretty cool and... crudel. I like it. But I feel like I will need to read or watch something stupid or "happy" to warm up my heart after playing this game, and I've read that the books are even more crudel.

Today I have procrastinated by rearranging books. I have far too many for such a small house.
(Doing this reminded me of a piece by a #Palestinian academic I read recently. He has just started teaching again, but all his books have been lost or destroyed. To be without my books would be very hard for me)

Non work thinking books, a very miscallaneous collection. In front of them are a trans pride flag, my practice sword, and my longbow.
Books which are being evicted from my bedroom, roughly organised into loose piles on my bed.
The fiction bookshelf — an extraordinarily catholic collection, each volume of which I have some reason for keeping (not all of them are good!)
Mostly-work thinking books (there's also a collection of Scots politics books top right, which overflowed from somewhere else)

While I'm wittering on about #books, these are two of my to-read piles. One is in a bookcase as I knew I'd be a while getting round to them. I bought those for 50p a pop at a Christmas bazaar. They often have some mid-century gems but not this time. The other is by the bed, the Active Pile. The top three are proofs sent to a bookshop in town which offers them to

A pile of books, top to bottom House of Splinters by Laura Purcell (currently reading and very good), Moonlight Express by Monisha Rajesh, As many Souls as Stars by Natasha Siegel, Duel Duet, Selected stories by Graham Greene and Talk of the Devil, writings by Ian Fleming
A pile of books with a Christmassy tin on top that my intarsia kit lives in. Top to bottom Dark Fire by CJ Sansom, Murder Most Unladylike by Robin Stevens and A Hat Full of Sky by Terry Pratchett.
