Weekly Update: December 19-25, 2022

Happy Sunday, bibliophiles, and a very merry Christmas to those who celebrate! I hope this week has treated you well. 🎄❄️

It’s been a peaceful week, if not a ridiculously freezing one. It got to a balmy -14 degrees on Wednesday, so we stayed inside that day (and most of the week). The weather’s been somewhat normal after that, luckily. I’ve just been relaxing around the house for most of the week and doing some baking and cooking for Christmas.

As far as reading goes, I’m still in a slight bit of a slump; I’ve read a few good books, but I haven’t read anything that’s really wowed me in a couple of weeks. It’s been a slow reading month as is, what with finals earlier in the month, but hopefully I’ll strike gold soon. Luckily, I got Gleanings and Women Don’t Owe You Pretty for Christmas, and my brother, while on his noble quest to reorganize my dad’s comic shelves, found an older Hellboy paperback and a few other things, so I have plenty to read soon. (because nothing says Christmas like Hellboy, right?)

Other than that, I’ve just been drawing, playing guitar, baking for Christmas (and subsequently eating said baking), watching Andor (I’M SO CLOSE TO FINISHING IT’S SO GOOD) and Glass Onion (the whole film is basically a giant middle finger to Elon Musk and I loved it), and staying warm in the way-too-wintry weather.

WHAT I READ THIS WEEK:

The Genesis of Misery – Neon Yang (⭐️⭐️⭐️.5)

Last Night at the Telegraph Club – Malinda Lo (⭐️⭐️⭐️.5)

Deep in Providence – Riss M. Neilson (⭐️⭐️)

Hellboy: On Earth as it is in Hell – Brian Hodge (⭐️⭐️⭐️.75, rounded up to ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️)

POSTS AND SUCH:

Gleanings: Stories from the Arc of a Scythe – Neal Shusterman et. al. (anthology)

DC: The New Frontier, vol. 1 – Darwyn Cooke

Today’s song:

MERRY CHRISTMAS FRIENDS

That’s it for this week in blogging! Have a wonderful rest of your day, take care of yourselves, and merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone!
