I just finished up listening to Blood of Elves, from The Witcher series. I started with the third game when it came out, but I really love the world and the characters, so the books thus far have been very entertaining. I’m not sure I’d really care for them if I wasn’t already immersed because of the game though.

My sister also just loaned me Tender is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica. It takes place in a world where people cannot eat the meat of other animals anymore, so they have legalized cannibalism. I’m only a few chapters in so far, but it’s pretty unnerving. I’m honestly not sure if I’ll be able to read it all the way through.

I always appreciate when the game allows you to choose how far the camera is from your character, and when they let you pick if you want to play first of third person.

Yes! I almost always change a few of the buttons when I get the chance. Extra points if the game is nice enough to let you know when your changes conflict with other presets.

I live near a restaurant that has a sign on the side of the building that shows a zoomed in pair of eyes. Below the eyes it says “Fine, dine here!” as if the sign is just being passive aggressive and your patronage to the restaurant is really a nuisance. It’s so dumb, but every time I see it I can’t help but giggle!

The sub I miss the most is definitely GuysBeingDudes. It was just my type of humor and always gave me a good chuckle.

I am glad that there is a somewhat active community for uplifting news here though.

I just came across “palimpsest” for the first time recently too! It was while reading The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, by VE Schwab. It’s been a while since I had to look a word up, so it stuck in my mind, lol.

I had a hard time getting into that one. You’ll have to come back an update us after you’re done! I’d love to hear if you think it was a worthy read.

I want to read this sooo bad!! Ever since I read Spinning Silver, I’ve been eager to read more of her work. Have you read Spinning Silver? I’d be interested to know how it compares to Uprooted.
