It’s May 1st. The third annual Wyrd and Wonder is finally here! It’s here, and I am already making changes to my intended reading list. But screw it, I don’t want to live in a world where chaos does not reign!* *Only occasionally. Please moderate your chaos. Also, stay at home.

Hello, good afternoon, good evening! Just dropping in with a quick update on the Wyrd and Wonder Readalong for The Goblin Emperor – thanks to imyril, we have a shiny blog banner to use for our discussion purposes! Check it out below…
I have no illusions about my ability to stick to a plan, even one that should be relatively easy to do because it involves books.
