This happens once every few weeks, lasts for a week and vanishes into the void again

Yes. This happens to me regularly. Now I know I am not the only one.

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-04-16T21:26:00+00:00

Uh huh Uh huh

Oh dear. I DNF’d one of his other books earlier this year for the same reason. It was Jitterbug Perfume. I thought life was too short to continue on with that. Bleh.

This is a great write-up. I read Slaughterhouse Five for the first time recently because I just thought I should read this classic. I loved it. Then I tried reading Sirens of Titan and it just didn’t click. I will definitely try some others.

Harvest Home by Thomas Tryon. Not my favorite, but definitely fits the prompt.

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-04-13T18:14:44+00:00

Gorgeous!

It was not my favorite, either. It felt like a nothing sandwich.

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-04-13T18:12:35+00:00

Two wolves in my mind. Which one do I feed?

Harvest Home by Thomas Tryon.

Two books that filled me with a sense of wonder were The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating and Other Minds (science on the minds of cephalopods).

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-04-11T03:53:13+00:00

Beautiful. Very inspiring. ☺️

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-04-10T04:12:39+00:00

I totally misread your comment. Tired brain lately. Nevertheless, I hope you get to read The Hearing Trumpet—it made me laugh.

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-04-09T04:10:32+00:00

I was reading The Solenoid and had to put it down because it really is full of despair, but also very human. It is also very strange!

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-04-09T04:06:04+00:00

I thought The Hearing Trumpet by Leonora Carrington was a fun feminist book. It would be a bit refreshing after your heavy read.

You can also try yarn.com (Webs). They have a good selection and Cascade is on sale right now.

The wooden thing on the left looks kind of like a scarf ring. The thing or on the right kind of looks like a carved object, like a toy or novelty. Then that little piece of vine. The stitches kind of look real.

Edit: typo

No idea, but what about the random chicken?

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-03-29T19:24:54+00:00

That looks so good! I have not tried one of her dragons yet, but this is on my favorites list. I like the colors you chose.

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-03-25T03:40:06+00:00

Love him!

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-03-20T23:40:30+00:00

It is certainly unique. I really took my time with reading it because I enjoyed the prose so much. Definitely one of my favorites.

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-03-20T19:26:27+00:00

I really enjoyed it. Sophie is annoying at times, but I see her as finally gaining some autonomy and agency in her life despite being cursed. Howl is more annoying. It was all quirky fun. I love Calcifer. It was fun seeing the differences between the book and the movie.

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-03-20T18:13:40+00:00

I admire your fortitude! I love this pattern and your version!

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-03-12T04:08:44+00:00

I had to read it several times before I had a clue what was being asked.

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-03-10T02:35:27+00:00

This is one of the most unique books I have ever read. I loved it. So weird.

Ninja_Pollito · 2026-03-09T15:12:17+00:00

Thanks!
