So in addition to many curious illustrations, this book offers the author‘s penis size, 3 inches long, 5 inches diameter. A world record as far as he knows. I suppose this is a story I‘ll never forget, but was it worth my while? Maybe, I‘ll think about it later in life. It used one of my favorite words, solipsism. Dwane Hoover diminishes into psychotic violence, believing he is the only person on earth with free will; all others are robots, etc.

At the start of 2026, I drift a bit from the norm. #ranttime

1. We survived #CheetoSatan and his demonic administration.
1. We still have a democracy.
2. We still have a democracy.
3. We still have a democracy.
4. We still have a democracy.
5. I still have Matt, Katie, and Pippa.
Have a lovely weekend, everyone. 💙🇺🇸🤍

A classic for the best book of August. I know Holden isn't the most intriguing of main characters, being a teenage misanthrope and all, and not much really happens, but I still enjoyed it.

TheEllieMo Ohhhh, this is another classic that I keep meaning to read! 2d

"Eugene Carmen

Life was not gentle to him
and the elements so mixed in him
that he made warfare on life
in the which he was slain."

This was our presentation piece for my actor's process course.

#Celebrate Title based on song. Go Tell It On The Mountain was 1st classified as a Christmas Carol. In 1963 Peter, Paul and Mary sang it. This book by James Baldwin sounds interesting. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

TheBookHippie Book is excellent. 2d
Eggs Baldwin was brilliant! This one is semi-autobiographical 2d

The Great Gatsby | F. Scott Fitzgerald

The Great Gatsby, by F. Scott Fitzgerald (1925) [RE-READ]
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Premise: A young man from the American Midwest is introduced to the life of jazz-age New York by a high-living neighbour with a mysterious past.

Review: There‘s no way I can add to the discourse around this, so I‘m not going to try. It does what it does exceptionally well, and I was glad to make it my final read of its centenary year.
⬇️

Mattsbookaday Bookish Pair: Among the many books that have taken up this story as an archetype, my favourite is Michael Chabon‘s debut The Mysteries of Pittsburgh (1988) 3d
