I got the test copies of the hardback from the printer!!

Mmmmmm.. they feel so nice. So hefty.

Your not too late to get a copy via Kickstarter:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/chrisbaldie/jacques-and-the-great-art-theft

A hand holds open the book on the first two pages of the story. We see a Paris skyline and zoom in on a singular apartment high in the rooftops. Jacques is fumbling around his apartment looking for his missing gloves when he discovers them in his own pocket and wanders off.

A hand holds the hardcover edition of the book next to a window. The cover is a warm yellow and the title "Jacques and the great art theft" sits on the front cover with Jacques striding across it.

A side view shows the spine of the book, with the book title printed on it.

The book open at another set of pages in the middle of the story. Jacques is sneaking through a darkened room in the gallery and has a flashback to sometime previously where he is at the gallery during the day. people fill the space.

Mrs Ashton put on airs? All the time. She is a social climber, always trying to win the favour of the wealthy.

Braddie - her partner, servant, conscience, accomplice - is often described in terms of weather - cold blasts of disapproval, brooding clouds of annoyance, thunderstorms over moors of anger

So a dilemma. A book with a great premise, written with panache, should be in my love zone, by a small press I admire.... doesn't land for me.

I don't particularly like posting meh reviews, unless they're big authors who can take it. It has a hefty number of reviews which really like it. And I'm not an edgelord who just wants to be a contrarian.

So, do I give it a three stars review for trying.

I recently read "The Revolutionary Science of Marxism-Leninism" by J. Sykes, published by #FRSO (Freedom Road Socialist Organization) and I found it to be an excellent entry-level text to #ScientificSocialism. It's very approachable and easy to read for any leftist and, I believe, is quite persuasive in it's argument for embracing #DialecticalMaterialism and #HistoricalMaterialsm as primary ways by which to understand and change the world. Sykes also describes the #Leninist form, organization, and inner-process of a #communist party and how that can be an effective strategy for seizing and maintaining working-class power (the #DictatorshipOfTheProletariat) as we advance into the #socialist stage of human development. Those are perhaps the most commonly expected and basic topics, but he also delves into the #MarxistTheoryOfKnowledge, #PoliticalEconomy, #Imperialism, the #NationalQuestion involving the oppressed nations within the US, #WomensLiberation, and #QueerLiberation. I think this is a must read for anyone who considers themselves on the #Left and desires a deeper understanding of our world!

Aviso: Es una novela de alta fantasía, con una gran cantidad de personajes mitológicos y antropomórficos y las escenas de combate pueden ser muy crudas y explícitas.

2023 is half over, what would you say is your favorite book (or 2!) you’ve read this year?

While my overall reading total has been unimpressive, The Quiet Tenant by Clémence Michallon & The Whispers by Ashley Audrain are 2 that I have really enjoyed. #books #booktoot #reading #favorites @bookstodon@a.gup.pe

I remember getting my hands on the book below--probably not the best reading for a 13 yr old, but probably not the worst, either. Anyway I remember being fascinated by it, as it felt really grown-up. Looking back, it makes me laugh, but also smile @ my teenage self.
Is there a book like that for you, as you were growing up? Or am I the only one that felt cool reading Suzanne Somers' autobiography? #books #life #booktoot #nonfiction @bookstodon

What are your thoughts on big books, meaning, lug them around or read on an e-reader? Just curious. #books #BookToot #photography #question #reading @bookstodon

4, very large books stacked up (Infinite Jest by Wallace, Anna Karenina by Tolstoy, Under the Dome by King, & The Executioner's Song by Mailer), with a small weight leaning up against them.

I ❤️ seeing all kinds of art, photography, & book-related posts. If this describes your acct, please #introduce yourself. 🎨📷📚

If you ❤️ seeing & posting ad nauseam- news, politics, & things of that nature--keep on scrolling, as you will never see that on my acct. Please & thank you. #art #photography #books #BookToot #nopolitics @bookstodon

I feel this!

A picture of Patick Steward reading. The text says: One of the worst parts of growing up is how sitting peacefully reading a new book went from “well-behaved, quiet child" to “rude and antisocial” adult.

Pleasure reading is exactly that. It's reading what interests you & whatever your heart desires & truly enjoys. Being influenced by what others say you should be reading destroys the very essence of what reading for pleasure is meant to be.

If you're in a reading slump, you should try books that blend together multiple genres or upend science fiction conventions to create something entirely new and unconventional for the genre. Here's a list to inspire your next book choice.

Friday night delights.

I'm over halfway through Our Missing Hearts by Celeste Ng, but decided to start The Marriage Portrait by Maggie O'Farrell b/c, why not? Since spring is in fact coming at some point, Sunny With a Chance of Flowers is my #wine selection.

Spurred on by watching the Apple+ series Foundation (one of my all time fave shows now), I decided to finally crack open the Foundation series by Asimov. Imagine my surprise to discover from Goodreads that I’ve read the first book before, apparently 25 years ago as evidenced by a high school friend’s contact info scribbled in the back. 🤣 #BookToot #scifi @bookstodon

The start of my #horror to read pile.

4 books held out against a winters backdrop of frozen trees and gray skies. The books are -

The cabin at the end of the world
Home before dark
A sliver of darkness
The drift

We all have our reasons for being here. I missed the online community of book people. I've been on socials before, & while I wasn't leaving anywhere to come here, this fediverse felt awkward to me.

2 months in & I'm feeling a bit more @ home. There are some amazing people on here. I've borrowed & bought books based on your comments & recs. Your pictures & words are often such a lovely reprieve to a sometimes chaotic day.

Just wanted to say #ThankYou

I really enjoy listening to audiobooks and appreciate the emotion and nuance that skilled narrators bring to the story. So I have my (considerable) doubts that AI-voiced audiobooks will be just as good. Hope this doesn’t become the norm. #Bookstodon #BookToot #AudioBooks #AI

Half of a Yellow Sun (Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie) – A wonderful exploration into the period around #Biafra's brief revolutionary independence from #Nigeria and its subsequent collapse and the violence surrounding it. It focuses on the legacy of #colonialism and ethnic ties in the face of romance.

Have you ever thought about going on a solo vacation simply to read? Even when I go on a regular vacation, for various reasons, I don't get as much reading in as I'd like to. I've thought of doing this for awhile, but have never pursued it- I always feel conflicted & selfish even thinking about it. It wouldn't need to be somewhere far or expensive. Where would you go? #BookToot #question #bookstagram #photography #dog #dogsofmastodon #readingcommunity #books
