If you live in California, and have the ability to get the Marin Public Library card, do it for the Libby benefits alone.

I just discovered that they have electronic access to every magazine ever basically (including international and niche titles), on demand and you can even subscribe and get them automatically added every time a new issues comes out.

I’m canceling my New Yorker/NYMag subscriptions, and catching up on the Paris Review and all the esoteric literary journals that only MFA students read.

Halfway through this Canadian SF anthology and every short story/poem so far has been great. Highly recommend, available from Bakka Phoenix Books dot com on Harbord or fine booksellers near you. @pluralistic has a contribution as well 😊 #Canadian #Toronto #SF #CurrentlyReading #SciFi #Fantasy

A blue book with a sea green space scene of a spaceship passing a space station. Year's Best Canadian Fantasy and Science Fiction Vol 3. Features a bunch of authors including @pluralistic and edited by Stephen Kotowych

Mein guter Vorsatz für dieses Jahr ist es endlich mal meine ganzen angefangenen Bücher zu Ende lesen. Also den #currentlyReading-Stapel zu verkleinern.

Gestern auf der Bahnfahrt habe ich zwei Bücher fertig gelesen. Jetzt darf ich auch ein neues anfangen für die #qwrc- #ReadingChallenge.

Diesmal ein Buch von der Liste von Dandelya: The Mermaid, The Witch and The Sea von Maggie Tokuda-Hall.

Cory Doctorow's Enshittification hardcover book on a dark brown place mat. The cover shows a swearing poop emoji and the title and author in white sans-serif letters.

To the left, a small wintery LED light, and to the right a beige, almost empty coffee mug that says "stay wild".

#CurrentlyReading "Move Slowly and Build Bridges" by our #FediFriend @rwg. It's a story about the people who built the #Fediverse. Mostly good people doing good work, along with a few who made questionable decisions and a few outright stinkers. Lots I didn't know in here. It's a great read, highly recommended to all FediFriends and FediCurious. 📖 👍 😁 #Books #Literature #Technology #ActivityPub

Photo of a book lying on a dark brown tabletop. The artwork on the cover is abstract and resembles a dark stained glass window (to me, anyway!). The title, subtitle and author appear on the cover: "Move Slowly and Build Bridges: Mastodon, the Fediverse, and the Struggle for Democratic Social Media" by Robert W. Gehl.

@RunalongWomble hello I'm good thanks, I hope you are well too. I've been in a bit of a reading slump so to kick start the urge to read again I have been re-reading The Discworld series. I'm currently reading Feet of Clay. The Watch books are probably my favourite set of books in the Discworld series as I love the character and world growth you get with them
