A book bar where you can slam a book shut on the bar after you're finished, shout, "Another!" and the barkeep will choose a new book from your TBR list based on what they think you will most enjoy in the moment like some kind of librarian sommelier. #Bookstodon #UnknownArtist

finished reading The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches 🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑
by Sangu Mandanna.
A lonely witch finds family & love when she is sought out to tutor three young witchy girls. A cosy romantic fantasy. Some enlivening characters and fun use of magic. Very 'House by the Cerulean Sea'.

Amazon ha decidido que a partir de hoy los libros que compran sus clientes sean un poquito menos suyos (no es que antes lo fuesen mucho, tampoco), y yo he decidido que no voy a vender ni un libro más allí 🤷♂️
Además, como intento ser consecuente conmigo mismo, he retirado los tres libros que he escrito de su catálogo, y siguiendo el espíritu colaborativo del Fediverso, los comparto ahora con vosotros de forma gratuita. A continuación os dejo un enlace a disroot para su descarga directa en epub (no hace falta que tengáis cuenta para bajarlos). Cada libro está en una carpeta que contiene el epub, la portada y un pdf con la sinopsis:

Si alguno de los libros os gusta estaré encantado de leer vuestras impresiones. Y si queréis invitarme a un café podéis hacerlo en mi página de Ko-fi ☕:
Dadme una manita para compartir mi trabajo, porfa, pero sobre todo disfrutad de la lectura 🤓

Now on #Hoopla! Relics From A Traveling Show has:
⭐Whimsy
🐲A gargoyle
🪄Magical schools
👵Heroic aunties saving the day
😈Evil bureaucrats getting their comeuppance
(yes, I'm clueless about emoji, but I swear it's a really good bunch stories & you might love one or all of them.)
also at all the usual vendors:

I was not aware that a new S+S is coming down the pipeline! It's from Focus Features (who also did P+P 2005) so hopefully this will be good. Additionally, Fiona Shaw plays Mrs. Jennings here, AND she's playing Lady Catherine de Brough over at Netflix's P+P. She's on an Austen kick!

I've finished: City of Stairs by Robert Jackson Bennett
After I finished A Drop of Corruption, I was looking for more Robert Jackson Bennett.
City of Stairs is similar enough to the Shadow of the Leviathan Series to feel very familiar yet not so similar you feel like your reading the same story in a different location.
This time the female is the lead, but she isn't infallible, and the male partner is an uncannily capable muscle.
Like in the Leviathan novels, The story begins with a murder investigation that then reveals more and more about the world, the gods, the old imperial power and the new. Neither political system is admirable but our heroine intends to try and change things for the better.
The premise is also quite unique, What if the rebels found a way to kill the empire's gods? What would an empire that has lost not only its gods but everything that was powered by their miracles look like after decades of occupation?

finished reading Messy: The Power of Disorder to Transform Our Lives 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑
by Tim Harford.
The importance of randomness & spontaneity in creativity & problem-solving. Plans, order & rationality are often counter-productive! So don't beat yourself up about meeting simplistic measures of performance. The tech discussion is a bit dated, but the principles are extremely relevant to AI. Ginormous gender blind-spot.
