I got an amazon giftcard that I'm going to spend on some books, plus there are a few sales they have too.

Definitely going to get this because I like the other 2 books:

I saw something for !marseyartists :

Something for !ringbearers to get (or get their gf/bf to make them something):

Not sure what else to get... anyone have any suggestions? !bookworms

OP has a very foid post history. Some choice quotes:

I started reading it really late at night and everyone was asleep so I turned to chat GPT to help me process.

I saw a comment on it calling it comedy, satire… it's like comedic in that it's so deeply disturbing that the laughter is actually mournful tears, right? Tears that look like laughter because they are arriving so fast and so hard that you look like your laughing but you're not, you're just trying to breath but you can't because the air is leaving the room as the walls close in.

Oh thank you!! I'll do that, I didn't even consider the fact that there are academic resources I could look at to help me through this in addition to engaging here.

"THE YEAR WAS 2081, and everybody was finally equal. They weren't only equal before God and the law. They were equal every which way. Nobody was smarter than anybody else. Nobody was better looking than anybody else. Nobody was stronger or quicker than anybody else. All this equality was due to the 211th, 212th, and 213th Amendments to the Constitution, and to the unceasing vigilance of agents of the United States Handicapper General." – Harrison Bergeron – Kurt Vonnegut

When he was 42, Cormac McCarthy fell in love with a 16-year-old girl he met by a motel pool. Augusta Britt would go on to become one of the most significant—and secret—inspirations in literary history, giving life to many of McCarthy's most iconic characters across his celebrated novels and Hollywood films. For 47 years, Britt closely guarded her identity and her story. Until now.

To be clear, I welcome the end of male dominance in literature. Men ruled the roost for far too long, too often at the expense of great women writers who ought to have been read instead. I also don't think that men deserve to be better represented in literary fiction; they don't suffer from the same kind of prejudice that women have long endured. Furthermore, young men should be reading Sally Rooney and Elena Ferrante. Male readers don't need to be paired with male writers.
