If you like guns germs and steel, you may also really like the hot zone by Richard Preston. I devoured that like I’ve never devoured a nonfiction book before (I usually think they’re dry)

I’m working my way through some of the more “pop” books. Sarah j maas, “beach reads”.

Honestly they’re all super easy and I finish them in 1-2 days. But I’m shocked at how “THE BEST BOOKS EVER” of this day and age are so downright terrible compared to the best books of like pre-2000s.

Has anyone else noticed that shift?

Hell yeah! The expanse is such a long series, congratulations

I think I’m more upset about doors of stone than GOT

I haven’t read ToG yet… just finished ACOTAR… and I agree, it’s terrible, but imho it’s terrible the same way that “love is blind” is, and I can’t get enough of either. It’s a whole dang pendulum swing away from Hugo award winners though that’s for sure.

Sometime around midnight is literally one of my all time favorite songs

I’m shamelessly entering my romantasy / book tok era… I’m working my way through the throne of glass series now.

For the record my taste is not always such trash. My phase before this one was all the Hugo / Nebula award winners.

The ori series are some of my favorites. I just finished will o wisps last night and now I feel lost and unsure what to try next… I’ll look at the ones you posted here!

Excuse my newness - how does one go about federating Kbin with lemmy? I like both, and I’ve figured out federating within lemmy, but getting kbin looped in is stumping me

I (Lemmy.world registered) just managed to comment on a beehaw post… I don’t know enough about how this works to help you fix it but it is possible!

I got the “you are not logged in” error before my registration was accepted, not sure if that’s useful for you?
