Hiiii, I made some more charts. I hope you like them!

The even more cursed thing I learned while trying to track the pictures down on my social media is that there possibly exists a 2500 page version with the first book of all 5 series.

The mention on this weeks ep of @NewestOlympian about people who started Heroes of Olympus without reading Percy Jackson reminded me of this absolutely bonkers thing I found back in 2019.

[BEC ♠️ @literarynature]

Yes, that IS the first book of three separate series, each of which is consecutively a sequel to the previous one, all bound together in a single 2.5 in thick paperback.

Ok here's a concept: Wife Swap but with municipal budgets.
librarians get cop budgets for a year and we see what can be done

@Bookshop_Org Just got my copy in the mail today, I’m hoping to make some progress on The Remarkable Retirement of Edna Fisher!

@NewestOlympian look at this event my local library is hosting! (And they’re having a Camp Halfblood day that is, alas, also only for kids.)

ten years as an antiquarian, hearing nothing but "my relative kept these untouched in a box their whole life but they died, and I don't want this stuff" has radicalized me. annotate the books. use the china. wear the clothes until they wear out. your life should not be a museum

@rebeccamakkai I fall in love with every other sentence of anything Maggie Stiefvater writes, I love the way she uses language (The Scorpio Races is my favorite, but I’m biased)

@hankgreen My Volcano by John Elizabeth Stintzi is an incredible literary scifi book, it starts with a volcano growing in Central Park, but it has so much more - climate change, folklore and deities, aliens, time travel, lemonade, etc. I’m entirely obsessed.

The distress is SO REAL, I’m so sorry guys 😭

[BEC ♠️ @literarynature]

Watching @NewestOlympian react to the Percy Jackson movie is reminding me EXACTLY why I left the movie theater crying when it came out omg. Thank you for making me laugh this time around 💙

[kimmy loves being literate @kimmybookss]

i love when audiobooks narrators don’t just narrate but vocally act their lines out, like if the character is crying u can FEEL the sobs or when they’re happy you can hear the joy! it makes the experience x10 more enjoyable!

The point of Twitter verification is that for certain individuals/organizations it’s useful to be able to verify their statements are coming from them. (This is why so many journalists/reporters are verified.) It’s supposed to help combat disinformation, not be a status symbol.

Love. Fealty. Bureaucracy. A secret wish for adventure.

In the sequel to THE HANDS OF THE EMPEROR, his Radiancy is away on his quest, and Cliopher is discovering there's more to life than work.
