Viendo Jurassic Park / Leyendo Jurassic Park

Yo quejándome de los tecnicismos en Artemisa cuando Proyecto Hail Mary es ciencia pura! 

Estaré bien. Ya llevo 100 páginas y no pienso detenerme porque esto se acaba de poner muy interesante.

What keeps tripping me up in #ScienceFiction literature is when the depicted characters and society that are clearly extrapolated from contemporary Western European / North American culture use entirely new words for concepts that are commonly known, with a well-established name.

Or, more succinctly:

No, really, this is a zombie.

And now for Mansfield Park. Not my favourite Austen but mainly due to a blander heroine than Elizabeth and Emma. We'll see how I rate it this time round. It's probably twenty years since I read it last.

On to the last Maigret 'Maigret and Monsieur Charles'.. very sad. #Maigret #Simenon #bookstodon #imreading 75th book I think. What series to go to now?

My child within is in need of a hug and it's Thursday.
Time to read something beautiful. Something meaningful. Something that speaks to the child within.

Friday is the perfect day to start a new book. This one is one to celebrate both #SpookyReadsSeptember and #LatinAmericanHeritageMonth

It's Wednesday, perfect day for mood reading.

Just a few pages of an old favorite for me, but... what are you reading today?

“People see what they wish to see. And in most cases, what they are told that they see.”
