After a frustrating week, my #FridayReads is Rest Is Resistance by Tricia Hersey. Reading both in audio and ebook so I can make highlights.

@transbookstodon Hi. I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but could anyone give me a recommendation for an informational book about polyamory? A good friend of mine recently started dating someone who's married and I have a lot of questions but also don't want to pry. I remember seeing a rec on the bird site a couple years ago but can't remember the title.

Thanks.

Since I didn't share my #FridayReads on the appropriate day, and because today is #WorldBookDay, I'll share that I'm reading Spellwright by Blake Charlton (a book about a dyslexic wizard; there are a lot of other disabled characters too) and The Electricity of Every Living Thing by Katherine May, a travel log/memoir of a woman walking along the Southwest coast of England while coming to terms with being neurodivergent. @bookstodon
Hi @bookstodon. I've been in a real reading slump lately, which has made me think a lot about themes or topics I don't like in books/stories. Does anyone have recs for quiet, interpersonal stories or stories where the MC does some self-discovery? Fiction preferred. Thanks!
@loren @Cheeseness Etymologically it's a goose-hawk. :honk:

Amigues hispanohablantes, me podéis recomendar algún juego de palabras semejante al www.palabreja.com? Éste me gusta, pero casi siempre la letra central es la misma varias veces por semana, y además me gustaría probar diferentes letras en un sólo día.

@littlemiao It works. And those are some great rumbles. :)
@littlemiao Oooh, I'd love that! :)
@CiaraNi And the descriptions here say nothing to me about what the jacket design looks like. (not that I'm interested, but if I were...)
