This quote resonates with me. Whether it's going to be a good book or a bad book, and whether I'm going to end up finishing it or not, those first few lines always fill me with anticipation and excitement and the feeling of adventure to come... Well, actually, the way the author describes it is just perfect! ;-) #reading #quotes @bookstodon

Saw an email now from a book news site I follow, about how "spicy #romantasy" is getting more popular, and also more explicit, and wondering where do you draw the line between romance and #erotica.

To me, I think that no matter how explicit and graphic the sex in romance novels gets, at the end of the day the main point of romance is still... well, the romance. With erotica, I would think that while the romance might be there, it exists as a backdrop to or a way to justify the sex. The sex is front and centre, and there might not even be any actual love involved.

I could be wrong, but that'd be my gut-feel, off-the-cuff answer. :) #books @bookstodon

"Digital Dementia" is apparently a thing, and while I think the term is unfortunate, because it cheapens the experiences of people with *actual* dementia, I agree that it's a problem: https://www.dailymaverick.co.za/article/2025-04-22-our-brains-are-being-fried-by-our-phones-what-to-do-about-it/?utm_source=MastodonAfrica #DigitalDementia #psychology

If you had to deal with a R10 000 emergency (or whatever qualifies as a reasonably big unforeseen expense in your country), could you/your family manage? #polls #finances

Sure, no problem
We'd manage, but with significant belt-tightening
No. That'd destroy us
