Just a boy who reads. Replatforming from bookstagram.I talk about, review and photograph books. I'm an avid reader of epic fantasy, but I love the classics and literary fiction also. I even read a little sci-fi sometimes.

I just finished N⁰ 73 of Penguin Little Black Classics as my first of the set to read. I love the story of Icarus. Scylla cutting off Nisus' purple tress to give to Minos has a certain fantasticism to it that's not often seen in contemporary lit. This was a breeze of a read at 56 pages and I'd recommend it to anyone facing a reading slump or just wanting a casual introduction to Ovid.

I recently finished The Will of the Many. this story follows an orphaned prince surviving in the Republic that invaded his country in a Romanesque world that uses will based magic in all things. Vis finds himself stuck between a plot to tear down the Republic and a senator that adopts him to attend a school to solve the murder of his brother. This was a fun read but there were issues with the grammar that were frustratingly repetitive. ⭐⭐🌟 @npub1ny7…uv57 @npub10hx…05w6 #books #fantasy #books

well, I look forward to seeing it. I have a lot of respect for Reeves, though he's not my favorite actor. It sounds like it'll be interesting.

sounds very interesting. I haven't seen it. I'll put it in my watch list.

This is a part I also found rather interesting.

that's one of my favorite lines in the book so far. He was an epic writer.

If you haven't read the first two books, you'll be lost in all the name dropping and buildup. The series honestly isn't great in my opinion though.The male lead is poorly written and the prose are middle grade level.

Thank you for sharing. I probably just wasn't paying enough attention to the details outside the poems when reading on the website. I've had multiple strokes and relearned to read and continue to read as much as I may to help my recovery.

I just read these. Your poem, "How my Mind Works," has an obvious beauty to it, but my favorite was the first one, "Self Driving." Your description of anxiety can be felt in the soul. To me, I related it to how I felt when I became disabled and was learning to cope with it. The final of the three poems on the page is not something I can personally relate to, but I see the value in it. Thank you for sharing your work. You have an adroitly profound skill with words.
