not your average revolution.
more of a reimagined #BastilleDay but still has the spirit of 1789 through a modern San Francisco family.
It‘s messy, rebellious, & full of heart 🇫🇷
there‘s a chapter called The Tennis Court Oath which also happened in 1789.

Anima Rising | Christopher Moore

“I could not give Wally or her #contemporary agency, but what I could do was portray her as resilient, clever, loving, courageous, resourceful, and #funny. For me, even though it was a story of a fictitious character from #literature & a cast of #historical figures, Anima Rising became Wally‘s book. For me, her memory has been a blessing.”
-Moore

This Other Eden | Ben Elton

Pickpick

In this dystopian satire, movies have been replaced by "advertainment," and the most popular product is the Claustrosphere, a bio-shelter designed to help the owner survive the eco-death of the Earth. Skewering Hollywoood, consumerism and corporate greed in equal measure, the story follows a screenwriter, a star, an eco-terrorist, a celebrity activist & Plastic Tolstoy, the all powerful business tycoon. Over the top but also somehow all too real.

I brought some library books to Chicago with me, but I finished both of them in the car ride over. I went walking in search of a new book for the drive home and ended up getting absolutely lost in after-words bookstore for like 3 hours. They have every book you could ever want and I love how it's set up. This is what I got!

AlaMich I love China Mieville! This is my favorite of his 1mo
