#312 Cómo retomar el hábito de leer con #brainfog #DisfuncionCognitiva 🐺 https://domandoallobo.blogspot.com/2024/10/312-como-leer-con-brainfog.html

Libros de relatos cortos sin conexión entre sí también ayudan.
"Intimidad Improvisada" (Máximo Huerta), una recopilación de #artículos (2 páginas). Me llevó años por intercalar #libros o temporadas en blanco.
Ahora tiene una #librería en #Buñol con el nombre de su perrita Doña Leo ❤️ #DiaDeLasLibrerias #librerías #libro #mastobooks #mastolibros #blog #blogs #mastoblogs #mastobloggers #mastobloguers

I’ve seen a few posts over the last couple of weeks about how to get away from the #Amazon environment. Many #mastodon users are likely already people who have fled from one evil empire or another. ;-)

I too have been trying to remove myself from Amazons ecosystem as much as possible over the last year, especially since a lot of my reading was done via #Audible and #Kindle and my reviews through #Goodreads

If anyone is interested these are my current alternatives to these services

My favourite Goodreads alternative:

#StoryGraph , A bit less cluncky than Goodreads and has an app that works, some insightful stats and graphs about your reading habits, and certainly better recommendations. And unlike Goodreads, this is being improved continuously

Website: https://app.thestorygraph.com/
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thestorygraph.thestorygraph
Apple: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/storygraph-reading-tracker/id1570489264

My favourite Audible alternative: #LibroFM

Just opened in #Australia this WEEK, #DRMfree #audiobooks from all over the world, and you’re supporting your local Australian #bookstores (picked by the user themself!)
Website: https://libro.fm/
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fm.libro.librofm
Apple: https://apps.apple.com/app/libro-fm/id1057776523

My favourite Kindle alternative: #KOBO

Almost all the books Amazon Kindle has as well, plus that one especially nice feature that Kobo devices have #OverDrive built right in — allowing you to check out free library #ebooks directly from your device.

https://www.kobo.com

And touching on that last Overdrive bit, check with your library where you have access to. Via my #Maribyrnong #Libraries I have access to #PressReader (Thousands of Newspapers and Magazines) #BorrowBox and #Libby (ebooks for e-readers) and even to the Library Edition of #TheAge

I am VERY keen to hear others recommendations on better alternatives!

Ich habe meinem Mann eben meine Idee für das schwedische Pseudonym unterbreitet und er findet auch, es ist ein guter Name 🥰
Dann bleibe ich dabei.

Ich bin immer sehr stolz auf mich, wenn ich mit meiner Entscheidungsfindungsschwäche direkt Nägel mit Köpfen mache.
