A lovely review of "Jane Austen Wrecked My Life" which is set to open in May 23 and then going wide a week later. I live in a rural area, but our local indie theater brings in great stuff, so here's hoping it shows up!

I feel like we are in an era where people really need authors to carry them away to other lands. Other times. Other realities. We aren't merely in the entertainment business. We provide therapy. Medicine. A salve for the soul.
Dang, Siren Queen by Nghi Vo is an absolutely fantastic, moody, magical, atmospheric piece about the glamour of golden age Hollywood, where power and contracts govern your life and identity in ways that are much more literal than simple business deals.

This haven of quirky and offbeat independent scifi stories lets me take narrative risks and avoid conventional sci-fi tropes.
My (of course) non-traditional Lenten practice this year.
A reporter from the Irish Times explores Bath in the celebration of Jane Austen. Nothing new of note here if you’re familiar with Austen’s connection to Bath, but I do like perspectives of other people’s enjoyment of Austen.

Traitor General is a good book. The Gaunt's Ghosts series does keep getting better. I have stopped comparing him to the only other commissar I had liked before him.
Its a stealth mission and they do absolutely crush it and they build up this whole resistance movement, blow up a bunch of stuff and, sure, none of them die, but that comes to more of a #40k thing. Guilliman doesnt have plot armor. Its called the Armour of Destiny. Deus ex Machina just means the Omnissiah #amReading @bookstodon
This is a very good question! We know at least one of Jane's brothers was in the naval forces; then there is Captain Wentworth and Colonel Brandon. It may seem Austen has a lot to say about the military!

I’ve seen all of these except the 1940 version of P+P. (Of course, if you pay close attention to ED’s social media, I have my ticket for the P+P 2005 version, which is coming to the big screen!)

Weekend reading! Going into the long weekend with The Screaming Staircase by Jonathan Stroud. I'm 25% in & enjoying it so far. Next up is The Confectioner’s Guild by Claire Luana. I got it free & I'm hoping I like it enough to buy the boxset. #weekendreading #amreading #books #bookstodon
I don't know what she did since her contribution to ace discourse but, the thing I find most frustrating about harry potter nostalgia is that I do not share it at all and when people complain about being nostalgic for those books I always wonder... is that normal?
Like, I am well aware that I was always a heavy reader and burning through books or deeply analyzing books and so even though I was 12 when the first one came out I was well past YA fiction by then, I had already finished the Xanth series and I had already realized that actually Piers Anthony might be a creep and burned any nostalia for that.
I liked Redwall and any Lois Lowrey book way more than I liked those books back then but I do not have a Mattimeo tatoo. I just... I know she is bad and evil but I just cant figure out why anyone cares. I just end up thinking that Harry Potter adults are trying to normalize caring about her shitty opinions and I dont know why. There are so many people with shitty attitudes and opinions. #books #amReading @bookstodon

I am kinda lost for words, atm. A challenging read of unexpected intensity with massive portions of horror, violence, misery and despair.
