just scanning my shelves now trying to remember anything that I might have called good.
The World War Z book is nothing like the movie, its actually good. It takes place after the whole zombie apocalypse is already finished and society is restructuring, from the perspective of the in universe author interviewing people about their experiences of it. I thought it was pretty interesting and unique when I first read it, but that was a while ago so idk if it still holdsup.
The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared by Jonas Jonasson is a pretty funny novel that does what it says on the tin. It is also a historical fiction where the Old Man recounts his life and reveals he is indirectly responsible for a lot of the big events of World War 2.
The Spinning Heart by Donal Ryan is a novel i had to read for 6th Year english class, and its actually pretty good. An intensely irish story set during the recession, each of the 21 chapters is from the perspective of a different person in a small irish town and each one of them has their own fucked up things happening to them. Very depressing, but its also written in irish vernacular english and slang, which might be fun and interesting to read.
Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata is a japanese novel about a woman whos worked at a convenience store for 19 years and how shes a little fucked up. Its not that long so it might be good for trying to break back into this ' Words ' shit.
All Tomorrows by C M Koseman is a 'speculative evolution' science fiction genre book about how different species of humans evolved after aliens came in and messed with them genetically, its a little bit ooey gooey icky but with a hopeful tone of the Indomitability of The Human Spirit. Its also written in the perspective of a sort of historical account.
I havent actually read it but, House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski sounds like a very cool surreal story that plays with the formatting of the book. Though this does require you to get a physical real copy to experience the full effect. Typing that last sentence i just remembered the existence of 'The Library', making getting a real copy a lot easier than i implied it to be. Im too ebookpilled
hi every one. its happening now :) . when i opened my window to feel the first few sputterings on my arm, i heard faintly in the distance some one singing the first line of the national anthem's chorus. 🇮🇪 🇮🇪 🇮🇪
i almost got one of these honestly just because i love the look of it, but a hacked 3ds can also do the exact same things and i already have one of those, so. its preddy pretty though
(btw, if you have a 3ds and haven't hacked it, you easily can, and easily should https://3ds.hacks.guide/ )
