EARLY ACCESS: In Defense of BookTok

I'm nearly 70, and since I grew up in the Canal Zone, Republic of Panama, where TV was scarce, I grew up reading. And seeing my parents read. And all of our friends read. I love to read. Also, if you ever need a sensitivity reader for female senior citizens, I'm here for you.

I thoroughly enjoy your docu-comment-cast-whatever things. Also strongly agree that no matter what we look at and how closely we examine it, we are still going to be deconstructing the patriarchy. Finally, reaching into one of my deep pockets of shame, when it comes to formulaic writing, let’s face it, if it’s a really good formula I’m going to buy every fucking one of those 27 or however many books. Kinsey Millhone or Stephanie Plum or Jim Qwilleran or Sarah Zellerby or Kaylin Nera and so it goes and goes ad nauseum. Now I can add Jinua to that list!

Love the tiara. Would be a good fit for The Lavender Princess. I'm also Aro Ace. I do not care for romance at all either.

Yay for 👑 retail therapy!!

Also, love the tiara!

I totally agree with you about the "boyfriend" in kindergarten! Gross.

Shelf trophies. We like shelf trophies.

I need you to know your rants like this being me feral joy.

My wife describes our house as decorated in “early American bookcase.” I say we bought a four-bedroom house so we have two bedrooms for the books.
