#bookston — Public Fediverse posts

Also, MS2 plot is solidifying in my head and it feels so good to finally move all of my projects forward. Writing feels so good, and it also feels like I have unlocked something inside me with it.

It has even given me a bit of energy boost, as long as I also pair it with FROOSH (not sponsored :P). I can take some extra discomfort couple times a week and skip a nap so I can do some extra art and writing. <3

THIRD CANDLE
as
we
were
trying
to hold
on

were
we
alive

grasping

pitiful
memory of self
it's pitfalls

moist golden dirt
as the desert winter
reigns and everything's

blooming

and the electric candle
of the recollection is dimming

as the distant scream
touches you

in a flicker

Hi everyone, just to let you know that I have a book out today and you can find out more in my pinned posts. Links are live and so is the paperback, which is only on Amazon rn. I am still looking for affordable non-Bezos alternatives.

THE DAY WE ATE GRANDAD - messy queers, generational trauma + the apocalypse

Here is the reading order graphic, and what to expect!

Is there a word in German for when you take weeks to read a very long book but suddenly dive into it at the end and read the last 120 pages in one day? #amreading #bookston #bookstodon

"Getting Lost" último libro de la escritora Annie Ernaux, Nobel de Literatura 2022, en dónde relata su aventura en París con un diplomático soviético casado y mucho más joven que ella. Es el extracto de su diario escrito desde 1988 hasta 1990, en dónde describe los detalles sexuales de su relación, la angustia y el sufrimiento que está conlleva. Es un libro que combina el erotismo con lo autobiográfico, atravesado por una fuerte sensación de deseo y frustración.

"The Book You Wish Your Parents Had Read" ini self explanatory yaa.. kayak ngebikin si calon pembaca kudu banget baca ini kalau mau jadi orang tua.

Saya skeptis, apaan dah buku kok gitu banget bikin judul?? Setelah baca sampai halaman 34, lalu teryakinkan sih. Beneran deh buat temen-temen yang baru akan menikah atau akan punya buah hati memang perlu banget tahu isi buku ini.

Key point yang saya dapat dari baca ini sejauh ini adalah: rupanya respon kita membesarkan anak itu kuat sekali dibentuk dari pengalaman masa kecil bagaimana orang tua kita dulu merespon kita.

Kalau beliau dulu sering membentak kita karena menumpahkan minuman, sampai gelas pecah.. maka kemungkinan kita akan meluapkan respon yang sama apabila anak kita menumpahkan gelas sampai gelasnya juga pecah.

Di sini kita menjadi sangat tidak rasional, namun sangat emosional dan secara tidak sadar malah terhubung ke masa lalu.

Lalu bagaimana cara memutus rantai pengasuhan ini? Lebih lanjut baca aja sendiri yaa 😁
