After struggling through Babel, I needed a fun read and, you know what, I am not ashamed to say I enjoyed this.

Lady's Knight - 6/10

Silly and cliche, but it really leant into that.

I don't know who I would recommend it to. But, if you're looking for an easy read that's got a WLW medieval setting, check it out.

@saskia I just finished reading @rwg ’s « Move Slowly and Build Bridges » and LOVED it so much. Highly recommended for the entire team at Newsmast. I was already super passionate about the Fediverse, but now my enthusiasm for it is off the charts. It’s like I got radicalized in the best possible way 🤗

@liaizon oh I got the feeling that he finished writing the book in the spring of 2024… books take forever to go through revisions before publishing. So of course I wasn’t expecting any mentions or anything. I was honestly so excited to find in its pages so many people I know here. I plan to re-read this brilliant book regularly to stay motivated and fight the good fight.

(Just one thing: I now have low key anxiety about Meta, Threads and embrace, extend and extinguish)
