dang it Sho - why aren't you listening to Genius-boy?

I laughed, a lot.

Lots of checking in, explicitly happy sex, kink, and consent things. Some overprotectiveness broody nonsense. Waaaaay too much plot in the plot to sex ratio for me right now.

Spaaaaaaaaace! Terrible alien virus! Yes, please.

Very depressing

A breathless read.

I'm a little “sure Jan” about the end, but it could have gone so very very very dark (aside from.the real historical events on which this draws) not exactly the escapist fantasy I thought from the cover anyway.

Hm

Reading a lot of shit + sports stuff lately - DiCario tackles what it's like to report on sports as a women and in our very online mediascape.

Bite sized

gender reversal + court intrigue!

Luchadora! Wallace was a professional for years, and I think that gives authenticity to the training stuff. Very cool. And who doesn't love an underdog?

You've all seen the Miyazaki movie - now we have an English translation of the original work! While the story has some major differences the feel comes through - it's like a warm hug.

une belle petite histoire.

Yes! Stick friends!

interesting concept

Light horror, female narrators in corrupt surroundings, social commentary.

Really interesting mix of sport problems from the fan perspective - you might need a translator for a few sport terms if you aren't well versed in the big three US sports (football, basketball, baseball) they touch on a few international issues like the Olympics and World Cups but a lot of it does focus on those big three sports specifically in the US. I had to have someone explain to me how these sport leagues control the # of teams vs the division sports I've played in in the past for example.

Fast and funny. Don't think too hard about it.

So cute!

Why do I like to read running books so much?

Oh dang

Very much tailored to endurance athletes. Chock full of psychology stuff. Minor quibble if you're going to bother fill a book with swears why bother with the asterisk?
