i have toooo many books in my library so I've just been swapping around between them trying to get a taste for using the kindle itself

[ríona @amonthofsundaes]

i got my kindle scribe! I'm incredibly happy with it, I've been having so much fun annotating

[ríona @amonthofsundaes]

I'm also going to see nosferatu next week. excited

[ríona @amonthofsundaes]

how it feels to study literature

[ríona @amonthofsundaes]

up at 1 am writing a literature review

[ríona @amonthofsundaes]

for hardcover books, do you guys keep the book jackets on or off?
i almost never buy hardcover b/c it's too expensive lol but I got one on sale last week and realized it's been a while. i tend to leave the jackets on

[ríona @amonthofsundaes]

i need to stop buying new books before i finish old ones

[ríona @amonthofsundaes]

@writtenbymxxn most of what goes into me choosing a book is the language and the sort of visual art of the words, i find that plot is 2ndary
bestiary is beautifully grotesque and poetic
DDR is *very* experimental and essentially dismantles the english language in conflict with the western canon

[ríona @amonthofsundaes]

@writtenbymxxn bestiary is about a girl who one day wakes up with a tiger's tail
dance dance revolution is a tough read, but it's about a korean guide in a place called the desert (mirrors las vegas) being interviewed by a historian

blog format is a little broken... will fix it later, but it's still readable

[ríona @amonthofsundaes]

long time no pretentious girlthing art. here is "life of the bunnygirl"

[ríona @amonthofsundaes]

some things i wanted to change or add but i think I'm ok with this as a first iteration

[ríona @amonthofsundaes]

post bloodwork tea for me

[ríona @amonthofsundaes]

really loving it so far
I'm a very slow reader because I close read, so annotating to hell and back on my first read makes me take a looot of time to finish a book

[ríona @amonthofsundaes]

evening tea and a reading list book i picked up today
excited for this one, will only read a bit before bed
