A little warped. I like good books, good people, and a good laugh 🇨🇦

Kindness is always in our power, Even when fondness is not - Samuel Johnson

Joy and sadness can coexist. Although it is difficult to notice it during life's storms, having perspective can bring balance.
It's -30ºC/-22ºF temperature today in the environment around me. From the lake near my cabin in the wilderness of the Yukon, I'm sending joy, hope and positivity.

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

It's December tomorrow! How did that happen? As promised, I'll be doing a #bookishAdvent. One book recommendation a day, hidden behind a CW (so it's like opening a door, but also it won't bother people who don't want to see it, so win-win).

I'll be choosing recs from books I've read this year, but if you want to join in, it's up to you how you choose your books. Please put alt-text on any images you share. I'll be boosting from the hashtag each day.

So just learned about an amazing program from my local library. You request a book they don’t have. They order it delivered to your house. Then when you finish it you return it to the desk at the library and it enters their system. Amazing program and a great way to support authors and make sure great books are in your local library’s collection. Just ordered Aspects by John M Ford with introduction by @neilhimself this way! Been on my to read lists for a while. Now I’ll read it then share it!

Do you want to own your very own magical portal to Aziraphale’s bookshop tucked away among your shelves? Look no more! This little book nook is going to be up for auction on November 30, with all proceeds to the Club Q shooting victims fund.
Entirely handmade from wood, it lights up and plays music (a music box rendition of the Good Omens theme).

Doing this #introduction thing everyone is raving about.

Canadian Mexican 🇨🇦🇲🇽, my main thing is reading, mostly in #English and #Español

Although my taste is rather eclectic, I mostly enjoy #ScienceFiction, #SpeculativeFiction, #HistoricalFiction, plus the odd #Biography or #Memoir

If you're not careful I will talk your ear off about #PopCulture, #movies and of course, #books
