New comic book day! #comics #America #AmericanGods #OldGuard #Batwoman

The making of a great evening. I know I'm getting to His Dark Materials kinda late, but there's nothing like a new upcoming trilogy to get you reading. And if anyone isn't listening to the Lore Podcast download it! The best scary historical fiction.

Check out the amazing gift my wife gave me! She surprised me with this great phone case with a quote from my favorite author. @Rebeccajojackson is the absolute best. 📖

Today was a good day. 📚 But unlike Instagram, Litsy is being cruel and not letting me post the whole photo. If you're wondering, I got books 2 and 3 of His Dark Materials. They were at a library book sale for 50 cents! What a steal. This is a combo haul from the book sale and a new used book store in town. Well, new to me. It's been in town for 35 years! Shout out to Linda's Used Books if you're ever in Visalia, CA. #bookaddicts #wehaveaproblem

What a week to read this. From Wiesel, "Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivity become irrelevant. Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must-at that moment-become the center of the universe."

This is a fantastic and fun fantasy adventure. Pratchett doesn't just mess with conventional elements of fantasy, he constantly brings in parts of our own world with a hilarious twist. The camera in Discworld works like a Polaroid, except there's a tiny imp inside painting each of the pictures. And this is just book one of many! Now I need to collect the rest...

"I can believe things that are true and I can believe things that aren't true and I can believe things where nobody knows if they're true or not....I believe that the future sucks and I believe that the future rocks...I believe that candy really did taste better when I was a kid...I believe that life is a game, life is a cruel joke and that life is what happens when you're alive and that you might as well lie back and enjoy it."

"With distaste, Harriet reflected upon how life had beaten down the adults she knew, every single grown-up. Something strangled them as they grew older.. 'That's Life, Harriet...you'll see.' ..Well: Harriet would not see. She was young still, and the chains had not yet grown tight around her ankles.
