I listened to the joint @swordandlaser @ReadingGPodcast last week. I'm still entertained by the answer to the question of how to privately rate and review books: Don't use an online service! It's one of those super simple kind of answers that is easy to look past. - @scottpantall
If I had more time to read this is what my TBR would be every month: -1 Shakespeare play - a classic novel -a Non-fiction -a @vaginalfantasy pick -a @swordandlaser pick And if I had more time, I’d read a random one I’m in the mood for. - Priscilla Basilio
