Hello, hello! [community profile] booknook is (again) tossing its hat in the ring for [community profile] 3weeks4dreamwidth in the form of a friending meme :D

This is the same meme as last year, as I do not have the brain-space to make a new one, but who knows! You're answers might have changed! You might not have seen the newest entries! You might have completely forgotten to check it out at all, even though you're the admin and you really should have. So let's do this again! <3

Copy and paste the text from the little box below into a new comment on this post. Feel free to remove the questions that aren't relevant for you! (If you want to fill this out in a post somewhere else, you're welcome do so, simply credit [community profile] booknook :D)

Name: Jenn
Pronouns: she/they
Age Group: late 30s.
Dealbreaker(s): I'm indigenous, queer and nonbinary, so like...look, if you read and roll your eyes about why that might be listed in "dealbreakers", we're probably not going to get on :)

I Recently Finished Reading: Paladin's Hope by T. Kingfisher.
A Book I Want to Reread: The Left Hand of Darkness, Ursula K. LeGuin.
Some Published Titles From My To Be Read List: Gathering Moss by Robin Wall Kimmerer. Translation State, Ann Leckie.
A Book Not-Yet-Published I'm Excited About: Naomi Novik's sort-of-announced upcoming book.
Related Book News I've Got My Eye On: The Murderbot adaptation on Apple TV! :)

My All-Time Favorite Book(s): The Left Hand of Darkness, We Have Always Lived in the Castle, Magic For Beginners, Braiding Sweetgrass.
My Favorite Book Genre(s): Speculative fiction (so, SFF), creative nonfiction, romance.
A Book I Recommend in My Favorite Genre(s): I'm going to cheat and say that a lot of Tanith Lee is weird and very good. Check out what the synopsis is, and give it a shot. :D
A Book I Don't Recommend in My Favorite Genre(s): I have tried and failed to understand the hype around Sarah J. Maas. Not for me, I guess? :)


Books/Genres I'm Interested in Discussing/Chatting About: Pretty much anything, honestly? I run a books Discord where one of my friends is setting up a low-key summer reading "program", so if that's your jam, drop me a line ♥

Okay, so I checked out your user info here and the "three rules" you posted in there alone made me instantly want to be your friend. Want to give it a try? My comment is here: https://booknook.dreamwidth.org/37093.html?thread=645093#cmt645093

Oh and I tried to read "House Of Earth And Blood" by Sarah J. Maas earlier this year and failed to understand the hype, too.
