Bookish Musings: Top Ten Characters from Books I Read & Games I Played in 2024

Bookish Musings: Top Ten Characters from Books I Read & Games I Played in 2024

I wasn't going to do a top ten characters post this year, but then I remembered it would be a great excuse to talk about Gale from Baldur's Gate 3... So I'm doing a top ten characters post! I only have seven, it's just easier to keep the title and picture consistent each year. Also I'm going to be a bit lazy and copy+paste quotes from my reviews for some of the character descriptions. Work...

Update: Life and Books (June 2024)

Another month of nothing. Just being tired and having all the usual aches and pains and worrying about things. But when I wasn't doing that (or rather, while I was doing that, since I'm always doing that) I was playing more Baldur's Gate 3. I would say I'm sorry that's all I've talked about for like six months, but I'm not. It's just so good. Here's a picture of Wyll trying to convince a guard to...

I've got some dance videos to share this week! These both have great dancing and are a lot of fun. The second is longer, but everyone looked like they were having so much fun that I just sat there happily watching the whole thing. Anyway, moving on to other topics!

Update: Life and Books (Dec 2022) + Final Art of the Year

I made art! I have to excitedly announce it every time because it happens so rarely anymore. Last year I drew Rudolph the reindeer centaur, so this year I drew Cupid. He has albinism, which is why his hair, brows, lashes, skin, fur, hooves, and antlers are all light. I couldn't find a definitive answer on whether albino reindeer have lighter antlers though. I might still work on it some more, but...
