listen, everything you need to know is that one time a professor called me "a sort of bitter Leslie Knope"
reading an arc of @kuangrf ‘s BABEL and am once again in awe of her genius. is there a more perfect book to read the week after finishing your PhD? i can’t imagine one!
ok, finished. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 There was a brief moment where i was worried that a character wasn’t getting their due, but I should never have doubted. Can I send a copy of this book to every university provost & dean??? hmmmm
You can preorder your copy at the lovely @PocketBooksShop (who ships nationwide!): shop.pocketbooksshop.com/ite…
hmm…maybe Pocket Books? Does that sound good, @jukietoss & @guesscall ?
