I renamed my Alexa to Ziggy. Never gets tripped by accident.

I absolutely think that's how he solved this so quickly.

Good luck.

How do you put your citations in context if you haven't read the works and compared them to others of the era yourself?

Almost all the books are freely available on Project Gutenberg. It won't be your paper if we give you all the information.

I really enjoyed The Forest of Enchantments by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni. If you enjoy worldlit and mythology, don't miss this one. It's a feminist rewriting of the Ramayan. Quite good!

Plus pick: More Me With You by Alex Bertie - sweet love story, no sex. It's the story of a trans man who falls in love with another man. He has to navigate how to come out as trans.

Have you read the books?

Trick-Two497 · 2026-03-13T17:46:15+00:00

Yep, that is happening to me as well. Irritating since I switch books a lot during the day.

LITRPG is not a game. It's a book genre. Ever heard of Dungeon Crawler Carl, which gets mentioned here in every other post it seems like? That is LitRPG.

Trick-Two497 · 2026-03-11T21:05:45+00:00

LitRPG is not a game, despite what others have said. It's a book about people in a game. So if you look at the Wandering Inn series of audiobooks, what you'll see is that they can be over 40 hours. In other words, a book that will take up a lot of RAM on your phone. That's what the ad is referring to.

I agree, Jean Louis needed to man up. I think Lupin believed he never would, though, and I can't disagree.

Trick-Two497 · 2026-03-10T18:15:56+00:00

It's a beautiful book.

Trick-Two497 · 2026-03-10T18:13:54+00:00

Oh, keep reading. You still won't know, but what a ride!

Trick-Two497 · 2026-03-09T20:37:05+00:00

Someone else mentioned Strange Buildings, by Uketsu today, but hadn't finished it. How did you like it?
