@hikingdude@mastodon.socialThe weather is cold and wet.
I'm not sure if there's a lot of outdoor activity today. But I've finished a book and wrote a quick review on #bookwyrm .
Funny - I NEVER wrote reviews on any platform. No Idea why but nowadays I'd only put it on bookwyrm because then I do not give my writing to any company for free.

(... nice to see this classic book get some attention!)

@floheinstein@chaos.socialMy wife loves Bookgoblin by Elisabeth Wheatley, and she had an early black friday sale starting today.
But the author has a geoblock on her store which excludes Swiss IPs (and VPNs and Proxies). I couldn't let that stop me. And it didn't.
FOR BOOKHALLA!

@ronaldsnijder@mastodon.socialJust found this #book of stories based on #TheStand by #StephenKing. Now seems a good time to read about the end of the world as we know it.

@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io5 - I went to Brooklyn’s #Book Festival last month and it was FULL.
So many people even at the very end of the day - people buying books, people walking around and sitting down in any spot they could find in the park to start reading what they got.
I heard multiple vendors talking to each other about how they didn’t bring enough stock to meet demand that day - in fact I couldn’t buy anything from multiple vendors I wanted to support because they had so few books left, and sold out of the ones I was interested in.

@salrandolph@zirk.usThis week I tell a story of reading a book that cast an entangling spell.

@groupnebula563@mastodon.socialI've just started reading "Tuesdays with Morrie", and I have to say, it is an amazing book so far, one I think everyone ought to read. Pick up a copy from your local bookstore or library and give it a read, I promise you'll like it!

@Rob_Oost@mastodon.social"The Wager-a tale of shipwreck, mutiny and murder", by David Grann. You get exactly the history lesson you expect: the hardship of life at sea in the 18th century, the lack of medical understanding, and the collapse of civil behaviour under life-threatening situations. And the incredible survival of some of the crew, and the following courtmarshall.

@PwnieFan@infosec.exchangeBrownies to celebrate book release day! Good thing I'm better at writing than knitting socks. Now I just need to find a magic pen that would let me write fascism away. #bookstodon
@TFG@social.linux.pizza @mariyadelano@hachyderm.ioPhew finally managed to track down a copy of “Enshittification” by @…
Was weirdly hard to find it in NYC today! I tried multiple bookstores and had to wonder around multiple floors of the Union Sq. Barnes and Noble to find a sole copy tucked away on a sociology shelf.
Not sure if I’m just too early, since I was looking around 1 pm on the day the book officially released, or if the bookstores are sleeping on it.
In either case - I have it and I’m delighted to be reading it!!

@mariyadelano@hachyderm.ioCool personal announcement: I’m now working with Hachette Book Group, 3rd largest publisher in the world! 📚😍
I’m helping with their email #marketing on their executive marketing strategy team for the next 1.5 months. Got many book lists to curate!
This is a dream come true in many ways, reading is my longest-standing and most consistent hobby. I don’t know who I would be if I wasn’t constantly surrounded by books - definitely not the Mariya before you today.
As a reader, as a writer - getting to see publishing from the inside and help promote products that I fundamentally believe do good in the world is a relief and a blessing. I’m so honored and lucky.
(Don’t worry, my agency is not going anywhere and we are still very much working with other clients!)
