Finally received the last volume of my manhua so I could finally begin. Girl does not like a cliffhanger, which is funny because I’ve already read it once so is it really a cliffhanger? It is making me want to reread the novels though. #readingisfundamental #reading2026

A really enjoyable harder scifi novel, with a good voice that barrels along nicely! I enjoyed Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir.

What a wild bunch! Discover the female thinkers, muses, painters and boozers that propped up the bars of Soho and Fitzrovia instead of doing the housework. Highly recommended #reading2026 #darrencoffield #permanentlypissed

Had a wonderful time with R. F. Kuang's Babel, although it took me borrowing it from the library four times and waiting while others read it in between. A fascinating world she built, and some really good things to say about solidarity.

2025 was a shit year and I’m glad to be rid of it. One good thing to come out of it was getting my reading mojo back (and surpassing my goal for the year!) Here to hoping 2026 is better in every way, including more books read. I’ve stocked up well for January. #reading #readinggoals #reading2026

Translating nine pounds of poetry — Harvard Gazette Sinologist Stephen Owen devoted eight years to the first complete English translation of the great Chinese poet Du Fu.

Part of my reading plan in 2026 is to begin Stephen Owen's complete Du Fu. It may take me three years to read all 3,000 pages.
