A very busy week, didn't get to do any reading at all.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening lately?


A reminder about our Book Bingo. Take look, if you haven't already.

weird mix, but Kiki's Delivery Service during the day and Infinite Jest before bed.

Didn't know the anime was based on the book, and that there are sequels to this too. Going to check them out.

they're aimed at teens/young-adults but it's fun spotting the direct inspirations and differences. also, several Studio Ghibli films are based on books: Howl's Moving Castle, Tales from Earthsea, The Secret World Of Arietty (kind of), and maybe a few others.
