- Still enjoying Susan Coolidge's late 19th century children's book What Katy Did as a reread - it was a childhood favorite, and I'm chuffed to learn there are two sequels that we never had in S Korea! Basically about a rambunctious girl who sustains an injury and becomes, well, saintly during her long recovery. This had a similar appeal to me as Little Women although the latter is, at this point in time anyway, much more famous! I kinda want to reread Little Women too, but I need to get cracking on research reading for school. /o\

- About at the midway point of Elva Birch's Bear in a Birdbath and MY HEART. Shifter threesome romance with three very different people, all delightful. :3 I can't even decide who my favorite is! ♥

- Casey Hardman. Game Programming with Unity and C#: A Complete Beginner's Guide, 2nd ed. Noodling at this on the grounds that it could be fun down the line to make smol games in Unity. I am DYING to find out why we're using quaternions but it's like p. 264. Arguably related to my M.A. (which includes composition for video games).

- Reminded that the reason I didn't finish C. J. Cherryh & Jane Fancher's Alliance Rising yet is that it's leisurely so far. I'm 15% in and we're still in exposition setup. That said, I am intrigued! Just busy and ill. :] Mainly remembered this because Alliance Unbound, the sequel, just dropped and I'd preordered it. I love Alliance-Union, and my recollection is that Cherryh will often do bunches of setup and then BOOM! (Not sure about Fancher - I haven't read her individual books.)

- I picked up GURPS Vorkosigan in hopes of running a not!Vor TTRPG lite one-shot or two-shot one of these days when I'm not sick and my life is not on fire (probably some weekend or evening).

- Also really REALLY want to dig into Monte Cook's Invisible Sun: The Black Cube! It's a chonker.
