Nobody here =(

Well, if anyone does come here, consider giving a listen to The Parable of the Sower. It’s hands down one of my favorite audiobooks. It’s written by Octavia Butler and narrorated by Lynne Thigpen. I don’t always dig audiobooks, because too many Feel empty or like white noise to me. Or there is this nagging feeling that I would not want to listen to the narrorator reading anything, let alone x-book. But this one was wonderful, and I think it’s in part because the source material is good and the narrorator was very talented and has a very unique voice. I grabbed it here, but originally listened ot it on Libby. If you’re interested I’d say both books (The Parable of the Talents) are wonderful to read/listen to - absorb through osmosis. All of the above. So give them a go if you’d like.

    I truly do appreciate it. It’s very dark, but without being overly edgy about it, and how little she needs to to say to evoke that feeling, and for its portrait of people dealing with serious shit without losing themselves. but I could easily imagine someone who went in cold bouncing off of it, particularly right now.

      Nah, I feel you. I think you know - it’s good to get both sides of the coin and go in and like be willing to drop a book. I mean in general though, cause like - trust me there’s been books I have been super excited to read and then when I am going over a line five times in my head and I am just going through the motions I realize “she is not the one” and I let that book go. But I am also guilty of re-reading because I have fun, it’s simple, and always see something I didn’t see first go round. i think I have read Two Serious Ladies 650x. I mean, I am overexagerating, but I also think it was the first time that I came face to face with what I consider the perfect typeface. Cause the edition I have has “Minion” as its font and hot damn do I love that font-face.

      But yeah, no you legitimately are saying something super valid and I thank you for it =)
