This list is maybe a little different than usual because it only has six new books, and the other four are rereads. Turns out I did more rereading this year than I thought! But I feel like any book good enough to make me love it multiple times deserves to be praised multiple times, and these were my genuine ten favorite books this year. So without further ado, here they are, plus a few...
Guess what, everyone! I have something cool to share this time that isn't about games! It's peacocks! Well peacock. I heard a weird noise outside, so I opened my curtains and found this! Wild peafowl have lived around here for a long time. I saw some in front of the house once, like five years ago. But having one just outside my window with tail feathers all spread and everything was genuinely...
Parker and Adam have a good post-apoc life with a community on an island away from the zombies. When new werewolves show up, the two men end up in a dangerous situation, but they're willing to fight for each other and the new found family they...
I wasn't sure how to explain this in the title. Cozy, chill, intimate, even lonely in a thought-provoking sort of way---this sort of feeling is something I've noticed about and something that really draws me to apocalypse and post-apocalyptic books, games, etc. But I feel like that's sort of not what people associate with the genre? So that's what I wanted to talk about, plus give some...
*Announcer voice blasts out over the speakers*: And now... it's time for the main event! The cream of the crop! The cherry on top! The one, the only, the top ten books of the year post! RAAAAAAHHHHHHHH (Just humor me and imagine crowd sounds here.) Well that was fun! Maybe I should intro all my blog posts with an announcer... Anyway, this has been a weird year. Perhaps that explains why it was...

With the country, and likely the world, ravaged by a zombie-like virus, Parker and Adam have decided to get on a boat, staying safe out on the water.

Parker, college freshman, is getting coffee one night when he finds himself in the middle of a zombie outbreak, being rescued by Adam, the annoying TA who gave him a C+ on his last assignment. With no family of his own, Adam agrees to cross the country with Parker to find his parents, and the two quickly grow closer, though it might complicate things when Parker finds out Adam is a...
It's been two months since I did one of these posts, and I still have nothing to talk about. No significant changes to my life or my health or my family or anything. Though the US has been a mess lately, hasn't it? Just wear masks, please. And stay home if you can. And remember that Black Lives Matter. And remember that trans women are women and trans men are men, regardless of what a certain...
