[04182022] My parents brought my desk from home to my apartment and I'm so happy!! I love this desk (I've had it for about a decade) and the productive space that I'm cultivating in this corner is getting better and better.

Maybe reading Finnegans Wake and Essayism has become my early September, end-of-summer tradition. Maybe I’m just going in small circles that aren’t widening.

Summer Reading Challenge book recommendations

for each prompt, we’re bringing 4 books into the spotlight, as well as giving you some additional recs because we simply couldn’t settle for just four great reads!

The Calculated Stars by Marry Robinette Kowal

After a meteor hits the Earth, wiping out a good chunk of North America, the US space program gets a big push with one important goal: get humanity off of Earth (to Mars) before the apocalyptic global warming makes it unlivable. The story follows a Jewish WASP pilot and mathematician trying to get women on the astronaut force in the 1950s. (blurb by our lovely Hannah @hannistudies) > this read has: badass women destroying the glass ceiling, apocalyptic elements, optimism

The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet by Becky Chambers

Rosemary joins a multi-species crew (as an accountant) for a very long haul job: punching holes into space to make space travel faster, but this time near a small angry planet on the brink of war. This is the first book of the Wayfarers series, but it can be read as a stand alone. (blurb by our lovely Hannah @hannistudies) > this read has: lgbtq+ characters, found family, non-humanoid alien species

The House in the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune

Linus Baker is simply here to assess whether the children at Mr. Parnassus’ orphanage are taken care of correctly. Unfortunately, the children include an easily frightened were-Pomeranian, a head strong wood sprite, a green blob of mysterious origins, a murderous gnome girl, and the Antichrist. Linus’s one month stay on the island of Marsyas will be anything but a smooth ride and he just might find more there than he'd anticipated. (blurb by our amozing (hehe) Mo @upside-down-uni) > this read has: found family, mirth, hope, a gorgeous setting

American Gods by Neil Gaiman

After Shadow gets out of jail, he is hired by Mr. Wednesday as a private driver. Follow Shadow on a road trip through the USA, where he meets decrepit, otherworldly creatures and runs away from Mr. Road, Mr. World, Mr. Stone and Mr. Wood, among others. A wonderful novel full of magical realism, in which you find out about the fate of the gods who were imported to America and have helped to shape the American culture as we know it today. (blurb by our wonderful Al @randomstudyblr) > this read has: gods, demigods and other mythical creatures, and a funky road trip only Neil Gaiman could craft into existence

Extra recs below the cut:

Sci-fi: • The Darkness Outside Us by E. Schrefer • The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by D. Adams • Life as We Knew It by S.B. Pfeffer

Urban Fantasy: • The Raven Cycle by M. Stiefvater • Cemetery Boys by A. Thomas • Borderline by M. Baker

soo it’s been a while since i posted anything original… sorry about that! i broke up for summer last week, but i ended up finishing school a little early because my brother got covid and we had to isolate. it’s been a bit of a stressful time and i’ve been kind of struggling with being productive, but i think i’m slowly getting myself together

That intimate moment between you and the book you have just read the last words of, where you sit there taking in the enormity of what you have just finished.
