Just finished Becky Chambers’ “The Long Way To A Small Angry Planet”. Can recommend. Character driven, episodic #scifi - I like the ethical and cultural ruminations that infuse the mostly light and breezy narrative. #bookstodon #reading #books #fiction

In this week's Top 5:

-The governor fighting to kill
-A contaminated building site
-The honesty of Bella Ramsey
-The real Texas-Mexico border
-Gambling for show

I send thanks to the buyer from Maryland who purchased an art print of

May the image transport you to a perfect day, one in which you immerse yourself in a most wonderful story, a book that you want to read to the end, but at the same time, never shut the covers to permanently close.

#Reading Louise Penny's 19th book in the Inspector Gamache series. Not one of her best but worth the time for the principled characters. Also noteworthy that Penny cancelled her book tour in the US due to the very unprincipled #uspol and the attack on #Canada
