I did! It was really engrossing, and understated enough to let the reader fill in the nasty details.

Kudos on all the cool reading! I finished 7 books this year, and they were comics and audiobooks. Hoping to get those numbers up next time! And finish reading a novel too, been a bit over a year since I did. Here's to a year of more groovy reading folks

Books read in December - 3 Booklord complete! Smashed my actual book target this year but I did find I was favouring shorter books and ignoring others that have been on the shelf for a long time. The challenge has lead me to read a number of books I might never have found otherwise but next year I think I'll be setting a target of 12 and attacking some hefty tomes instead. 42 - It Rides a Pale Horse by Andy Marino - A random recomendation from Instagram of a modern horror and I'd pass on the recommendation. A sculpture artist is comissioned to create something horrific according to centuries old book bound in leather, if he doesn't then his sister will be killed. Things go downhill as he begins the sculpture and everything devolves into eldritch style horror with some really unsettling moments. 43 - The Liminal Zone by Juni Ito - Another collection of horror manga, originally created for the web if I recall correctly. Not my favourite set but still fun to read 44 - The Warlock's Wench by Evelyn Stewart Armstrong - I was struggling to find something for the name part of the challenge and thought it would be funny to pick this up and pretend I expected wizard pirates. I actually expected historical smut based on the coverart and blurb but it's more of a historical romance drama that I ended up liking more than I expected. I liked the main character Gentian as she had luck like a yo-yo who seemed stronger than the damsel in distress the book might have wanted her to be most of the time. 1. Set a goal for number of books or another personal challenge. - 44/35 (complete) 2. Of the books you read this year, make sure at least 25% of them are not written by men. - 13/9 (complete) 3. Of the books you read this year, make sure a least 25% of them are written by writers of color. - 10/9 (complete) 4. Of the books you read this year, make sure at least 8% of them are written by LGBTQ writers. - 4/3 (complete) 5. Read something that is not a novel (i.e. a play, a poetry collection, a comic/manga, etc.) - 7 (complete) 6. Borrow something to read (from a friend, a loved one, a library, etc.) - 2 (complete) 7. Lend or recommend a book to someone (tell the thread what you lended/recommended!) - Berserk Deluxe Vol. 1 (complete) 8. Read something over 400 pages - 3 (complete) 9. Read something by an author with the same or similar name as you (can be just first, middle, last, a nickname, whatever) - The Warlock's Wench (complete) 10. Read a work in translation - 7 (complete) 11. Read something that someone you know HATES - Death of a Salesman (complete) 12. Read something about books - One of Our Thursdays is Missing (complete) 13. Ask the thread for a Wildcard - Lathe of Heaven (complete) 14. Read a book published the year you turned 23 years old - Smoke and Mirrors (complete)

It's great to see people's end-of-year updates rolling in! I'll have the new thread posted later tonight hopefully, but feel free to keep putting your wrap ups here. I finished 8 books in December much to my surprise. I also finally managed to wrap up my own challenges, hah. That brings my total for the year to 110, which I'm also surprised by! 103. Desolation Island by Patrick O'Brian Fifth of the Aubrey/Maturin books. This one had some harrowing sea combat in it, and a lot of illness. Mild spoiler, but I was surprised that the titular island didn't even get mentioned until nearly the very end of the book. Managed to have a cute ending! 104. The Bad-rear end Librarians of Timbuktu: And Their Race to Save the World's Most Precious Manuscripts by Joshua Hammer A book about books! Despite the title, this ended up being maybe 75% about the political climate in North Africa and how the past handful of decades led to the growth of various terrorist and religious extremist groups. There was information about the antique manuscripts being collected, preserved, and saved from being destroyed, but it certainly wasn't the bulk of the book. Very informative, but not the information I was expecting to get. 105. Ada Blackjack: A True Story of Survival in the Arctic by Jennifer Niven This was.... uhhh. So Ada Blackjack was a lone Inuit woman who was hired to be the housekeeper for an incredibly stupid arctic expedition to Wrangel Island. She ended up having to survive entirely on her own, starting with almost no survival knowledge to start out with. It's a great story! But I really wasn't a fan of how Niven told it. She used the foreward to justify her use of "Eskimo" through the text even though she acknowledged it's an outdated and even offensive term when she wrote the book, which was kinda gross. She also seemed pretty lenient about the awful ways that the white men on the expedition treated Ada. I dunno, I feel like it's worth learning Ada's story but this book might not be the best place for it. 106. Facing East from Indian Country: A Native History of Early America by Daniel K. Richter What it says on the tin -- early colonial history focusing on the experiences of Native peoples. I have a vague sense that this book was pretty influential, and I think the fact that a lot of these stories and narratives weren't entirely unknown to me could very well be the result of its influence. This didn't go super deep on any one period or topic, but it did give a good, broad overview I think, especially if you've only heard the European perspective before. 107. Ready Player One by Ernest Cline I have never rage-read a book so quickly before just to get it over with and I have only myself to blame here. This was my "book someone you know HATES." I don't know what to say about this without just going on the I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream hatred rant. If you want to see something utterly bizarre, the amount of well-reasoned and thought out one-star Goodreads reviews of this book where Cline's fans have come in to just spam variations of "YOU ARE WRONG. IDIOT." is sure something. 108. Pinball by Gary Flower and Bill Kurtz Borrowed this from a family friend who collects pinball machines. This is short-but-informative history of pinball with plenty of photo examples. It was published in 1988 though, so it's obviously missing how much pinball has continued to advance and grow in the past 35~ years. A near overview of how it went from gambling to an actual game of skill though! 109. Wyrm by Gretchen Felker-Martin This was a patreon-exclusive novella. What a blast. It's set in medieval England, but some mysterious people in a large metal ship (in the end it's implied they are maybe what was left of Atlantis) gifted dinosaurs to the English decades previously. It's gnarly and gross and most of the main characters have some really dysfunctional emotional/sexual relationships with each other (fair warning there). War mount dinosaurs, pet velociraptors, bear-baiting but with carnotaurus. It's gruesome but also a lot of fun if you like hosed up depressing fantasy. 110. The Library at Mount Char by Scott Hawkins Less gnarly, but still a very violent take on modern fantasy. This one is sort of hard to describe, but it's basically a look at what happens when an all-powerful wizard (but not technically?) kidnaps a bunch of children and forces them to learn what we might consider magic. And the fallout from that. A bit uneven in parts, but definitely does something I haven't seen any other modern-setting fantasy attempt. Worth checking out if you want something different! PROMPTS 1. Set a goal for number of books or another personal challenge -  110/52 2. Of the books you read this year, make sure at least 25% of them are not written by men. (~51/110) 3. Of the books you read this year, make sure a least 25% of them are written by writers of color. (~32/110) 4. Of the books you read this year, make sure at least 8% of them are written by LGBTQ writers. (~33/110) 5. Read something that is not a novel - The Madman's Gallery 6. Borrow something to read - Witch Hat Atelier #2 7. Lend or recommend a book to someone - I got 2 friends to start reading Moby Dick! 8. Read something over 400 pages - Kushiel's Dart definitely qualifies 9. Read something by an author with the same or similar name as you - Hexarchate Stories by Yoon Ha Lee 10. Read a work in translation - Solaris by Stanisław Lem 11. Read something that someone you know HATES - Ready Player One 12. Read something about books - The Bad-rear end Librarians of Timbuktu 13. Ask the thread for a Wildcard - The Gone World 14. Read a book published the year you turned 23 years old - Wool by Hugh Howey THEMES - Surreal - The Complete Stories of Leonora Carrington - Adventure - Thin Air - Informational - The Time Traveller's Guide to Medieval England - Uplifting - Gathering Moss - Tragic - In Harm's Way - Seasonal - Leech (Winter was a very relevant plot point) - Scary - The Ghost Map - Comforting - Legends & Lattes - Celestial - The Blazing World - Chthonic - Hollow

Missed my goal  but 18 is a good haul I think.1: Shattered Sword 2: Oil! 3: Before the Coffee gets cold 4: Steppenwolf 5: Solaris 6: Twilight of the Gods 7: The King Must die 8: The Importance of being Earnest. 9: Nixonland 10: Heart of Darkness and other Tales. 11: The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner 12: Things fall apart. 13: Don Quixote 14: Ringworld 15: Battle cry of Freedom 16: Suttree 17:Rocannons world. 18:History of food in 100 dishes. Lotta weighty tomes on that list, Solaris and the king must die were probably my favorites with Don Quixote just being an actual chore to read. Glad to finally read Suttree and Steppenwolf as well.

Missed True Booklord by One Book, but I more than met my goal, especially thanks to the power of Fan Fiction! #36- Pictures At A Revolution: Five Movies and the Birth of the New Hollywood, by Mark Harris | :: Well plotted and incredibly informative snapshot of one year at the movies, focusing on the Best Picture nominees from the year of our lord 1967. Very incisive of the state of Hollywood's nonsense, from the bloated anachronism of Doctor Dolittle to the half-measures of Stanley Kramer and Norman Jewison weaponising Sidney Poitier in two separate nominees. Loved hearing about the behind the scenes trash fire that was the production of Doctor Dolittle. [audiobook/hoopla] #37- the Twenty Days of Turin, by Giorgio De Maria | :: Spooky neodystopia from when ITaly was besieged by revolts in the 60s and 70s. May have predicted an analog for social media, but also reminded this one of The Strain in its final pages. [Hardback] #38- Congruent, by Ao3 user sincosma | :: Yepp, here we go. So around the end of July, I found myself unemployed. In an attempt to rejigger my headspace, I took a gamble and accepted an invitation to Archive Of Our Own, a respected repository of fanfiction, and the mental illness compounded from there. Now, as a peace offering, I'm only counting single works towards this that exceeded 90,000 words; that's 3x the length of Of Mice and Men, and that's generous, in my eyes. RE: the text itself. A homoerotic adventure of intrigue with Link and Sheik post-Ocarina of Time, oh but this time Sheik is a separate, (male!), character and not a separate aspect of Her Royal Highness Princess Zelda Hyrule. Toys around with the darkness present in Ocarina and later Majora's Mask, the latter of which is in my gaming backlog and I'm aware of by reputation. Maybe I'll get to it in '24. Liked it well, though I personally don't vibe with fanon messing with Sheik's canon character. Aight, I spose. [Web] #39- Unbroken, by Ao3 user DeiliaMedlini | :: More Zelda fanfic, but this takes a grounded approach to Link and Zelda coming together to escape Ganondorf's hostile takeover of her kingdom and rousing a force all their own to take it back. Solid base for a medieval fantasy, though it touches on almost everything in the canon, except most of the supernatural fantasy that makes Legend of Zelda what it is at heart, notably a specific sword is missing from the narrative, and by extension the reincarnation prophecy thread of it all. Definitely recommending this to some of my more offbeat fandom friends. [Web] #40- the Library of the Unwritten, by AJ Hackwith | :: Alongside my fanfiction addiction, this singlehandedly revived my interest in literature as a whole. Can't wait to be dragged by others on here for not reading enough Real Literature, whoof. Hell's Librarian has to chase characters that escape her workplace. Awesome concept. Characters are beautiful and awful and i love them all. [eBook/Libby] #41- My Alcoholic Escape from Reality, by Nagata Kabi | :: Nagata-san returns, and her life is still a mess. Poor girl just can't catch a break. Love her storytelling still, as harrowing as it is. [Trade Paperback] #42- the Lies of Locke Lamora, by Scott Lynch | :: My godson's recommendation to me. Thieves cause trouble in fantasy Venice. A unique spin on the fantasy malarkey, with a defined dark, rippling edge to the proceeds. [Hardcover] #43- Manacled, by Ao3 user senlinyu | :: Decided since I dove headfirst into this fandom fiction spiral, I found myself curious to read a selection of the most popular titles on the archive. This be the second most popular piece of fandom fiction from the Rowlingverse on the archive. A Bad Ending with Intrigue for a small cast of survivors from the Wizard War. Handmaid's Tale but with Wizards n shyt. And Non Consensual Sex. Though, the narrative makes a bold choice in its structure that dares to recontextualize that squick. And I respect the effort. Not a fan of this pairing on the surface, but I read it to see what the people of Ao3 considered exceptional, and I can't deny it those marks. [Web/eBook] #44- Life, Animated, by Ron Suskind | :: Madre put this forward for her recommendation for my yearly reading. I love her dearly. This book, not so much. I bristle at raw sentimentality, especially when it comes to portraying mental illness and especially Autism. This book is not my experience, so it's difficult to parse through it without coming across like a dick. This family's life is very rose-colored. Not to say they are naive and have no problems day to day, but the portrayal came across as cringe, to the point I had to switch from the audiobook to the eBook, because I could not vibe with the author's active narration in the moment. [eBook] #45- the Princess Who Carries the Blood of the Goddess, by Ao3 user theLoudGuy | :: Now we're getting into that good fic! A retelling of the plot of Breath of the Wild, but Princess Zelda was put into the Shrine instead of Link. Now she has to journey, with her ninja best friend's granddaughter Paya, to save the world from a monstrous apocalypse held off by a century long fight of her valiant knight in Hyrule Castle. Thrilling prose, insidiously good characterisation and interaction. Fell hard for this one. [eBook] #46- Deku? I think he's some pro..., by Ao3 user Clouds | :: More good fic. And with such a compact high concept. Deku (My Hero Academia) remains quirkless, but insists on becoming a quirkless/powerless superhero anyway. Love my boy living the good life, regardless of the complications the superheroic world assaults him with daily. [eBook] #47- Tomie, by Ito Junji | :: This year's spooky season reading. Ito knows how to crawl under the skin, and Tomie has some potent spooks, specializing in body horror, in spades. [Hardcover] #48- the Contortionist's Handbook, by Craig Clevenger | :: This was a rec from a podcast friend, and I came around to digging its brand of anxiety. Acerbic prose lent itself to genuine thrills as the plot compacts inward and our protag attempts to escape with all 21 of his digits intact. [audiobook/hoopla] #49- Viridian: the Green Guide, by Ao3 user Clouds | :: Back at it again, baby. This time Deku is still quirkless, but he opts for the vigilante route, to the eternal chagrin of accidental mentor Aizawa Shouta/Eraserhead. Suicidal Deku hits the streets in order to live his dream, as long as it can possibly last. Clouds gets this fandom. [eBook] #50- Life in Zora's Domain, by Ao3 user Andremoi | :: The things I read for fandom. 920,000+ words. And half of the time I wished for an editor to come in and trim most of the unimaginative prose, which often repeated information the audience was already privy to, because the author is an amateur and I am bougie for expecting a modicum of editing capability. The plot here isn't a bad idea. A What If scenario involving Link going all Ocarina of Time to reunite with his actual beloved, Princess Mipha of the Zora (uh huh, okay). Narrative has some neat ideas, Link's family with Mipha has a couple of very cute and likeable OCs. External forces threaten the peace and he has to take up the sword, again, much to his family's discomfort. I was begging for the author to eventually get a Beta to give this a once over, but it never happened. The repetition continued, the plot expanded, I sighed in exhaustion. Could have easily been cut down to less than 400,000 words if anyone had given a hoot. [eBook] #51- Breaking the Cycle, by Ao3 user quietpastelcolours | :: Ah here we go. A Pairing I do not support, written thoughtfully enough for my grudging respect. Like if Manacled wasn't as ambitious with its narrative thrust. In other words, it's fine I guess. Will be recommending to an author acquaintance who will no doubt fall head over heels for it. [eBook] #52- Films of Endearment: A Mother, a Son, and the 80s Films That Defined Us, by Michael Koresky | :: Discovered a few insights into the author's relationship with his madre and even discovered one or two films that had fallen by the wayside of history. Success! [eBook/Libby] #53- the Tragedy of Link and Zelda, by fanfiction.net user zelinkoot | :: Technically three works, but I'm counting them as Book I, Book II, and the Epilogue of one classical tragic volume. Broke my heart in Book I, ground me to powder by the end of Book II, sobbed openly at the epilogue. It hurt to read, as someone suffering from ZeLink brainrot every hour every day. [Web] #54- All the Young Dudes, by Ao3 user MsKingBean89 | :: The most popular fic on Ao3 by kudos. A 'canon compliant' exploration of the Marauders, James Potter, Sirius Black, Peter Pettigrew, and POV character Remus Lupin from Year 1 at Hogwarts up through Book 5 of the Potter books. Solid. Not my thing really, but character writing does what it sets out to, and the melodrama sure does melo. [eBook] #55- In Cold Blood, by Truman Capote | :: Fulfilling the Something Borrowed requirement, gracias madre! Another solid one. Curious how this compares to the rest of Capote, seeing as this is my first experience with their voice. [Hardcover] #56- Yesterday Upon the Stair, by Ao3 user PitViperOfDoom :: Final read of the year was one of the most rewarding fics I came across on all of Ao3. Another High Concept Deku fic; what if our favorite green haired good boi had The Sixth Sense? Reading all this assortment of fic really made apparent how all fanfiction struggles with the pull of constants and variables. Things in the base plot must happen, distinguished characters must act a certain way, but with their unique spin on the proceeds, the story can hum and purr like a completely different cat at the zoo. [eBook] Challenge Endgame 7- Recommended, I mean that's what this counts as, I think anyway. Recommended several books over the year to friends (Rise of Kyoshi to one of my besties, I'm buying mi madre copies of East of Eden and Les Miserables for her 70th birfday), but cannot confirm if anyone I spoke to followed up, save for some short ficlets on Ao3, and those were too short for even my earlier generosity. -shrug- 9- Name's the Same, ran out of time sorry Theming, Adventurous: 23 [storygraph claims Henry IV P1 qualifies, but I'm hesitant to disqualify P2 and V] Celestial: 2 Chthonic: 1 Comforting: 1 Informational: 8 Scary/Spooky: 7 Surreal: 8 Tragic: 20 RailtraceR30 posted:Checking in at the 2/3rds mark to rattle off my progress.
