Laura Ingalls Wilder writing for children: Here's how Ma made cheese. Here's how Pa built a cabin. Here's how a cobbler made shoes by hand.
Laura Ingalls Wilder writing for adults: Here's how you at home can make floor wax using parowax and GASOLINE!
#laura ingalls wilder#little house#her one and only 1930s column in the book was a bit of a wild ride#'make sure you add the gasoline after taking the melted wax far from the stove'#YEAH THAT SOUNDS PRETTY IMPORTANT!#turns out i had a bunch of random laura ingalls wilder thoughts backlogged#but i think this'll be the last for now

new episode of my podcast Backlog Books out now (link in pinned post)
Little Thieves by Margaret Owen
This is a heist book! I can’t believe I haven’t read more heist books, I love heists.
It's also a fairy tale retelling!
Our main character is Vanja, who is just… a little scamp. Actually she’s a schemey little gremlin, and I love that for her. She’s very focused on taking care of herself because she has learned that no one else will take care of her.
Vanja spends a very long time determined to do everything on her own. She looks out for herself because no one else will, not without wanting something from her. Getting her to participate in a team activity is like trying to herd a teleporting cat. She has a rocky road on her way through this book, but I liked how she landed.

Happy International Asexuality Day! 🖤🩶🤍💜
Much like last year, here's a recommendation list of aspec books I've read and a few on my tbr. I've also added some aspec authors, too. It's obviously not an exhaustive list, but it'll get you started.
I'm spending this rainy day celebrating (i.e. reading) instead of educating. I've got some posts already on my page with my experience being ace. I'm tired of constantly educating and defending my sexuality to people. Google is a good starting point. Search out ace bookstagrammers and content creators. We aren't a monolith and all of our experiences are different.
I hope you enjoy the recs! Have you read any of these or have any favorites I should put on my radar?
#international asexuality day#asexuality day#book recs#ace book recs#asexual bookstagrammer#the charm offensive#alison cochrun#the dead romantics#ashley poston#the heartbreak bakery#ar capetta#under the whispering door#tj klune#lgbtq reads#lgbtqia#queer book recs#read with pride#read queer all year#stardustandrockets#backlog from april#april 6

Setting big goals for myself in 2024…I think I’m going to only allow myself to buy one book per month
#I’m currently overrun by books and I have a huge physical backlog to get to#I need to read these books and figure out if I want to keep them or donate them#12 books is not a lot but I need to be strict & not purchase everything I want to read#that being said I do have the first 3 books for January February and March preordered so anything else I read will be from work or library

What do you think are some of Juniper’s favorite drinks? You think he’s a cocktail guy?
That guy tried beer once when he was 15 and vowed to never touch it again. ANYWAYS -
We know he's a wine guy from ieytd 2 (brah has a wine CELLAR) and I think he VERY MUCH enjoys fruity cocktails. The less like alcohol it tastes, the better
#the doodles are a little scruffy I apologise#also I'm gonna book this into my queue cause I have a tiny bit of a backlog and I LOATHE!!!! spamming the tag so uh....-#a couple extra posts across the day shouldn't hurt#like maybe one extra#idk mannn I just feel so bad posting multiple times a day#ANYWAYS jj.....im sorry he doesn't like beer. I think he's down for a good whiskey but moreso socially because he has appearances#but yk i think he would love really fruity cocktails ...totally not projecting a little bit from the limited amount of alcohol ive had#tbf. tbf i was made a REALLY good cocktail once#it was uhhh brandy oat milk baileys and one other thing#SO GOOD#anyways#ieytd#john juniper#asks#[agent moose's art]

i finished the left hand of darkness … the last 20 pages or so made me cry and i am sad that it is over .. but i am so thankful, too … this is the first fiction book that i have finished since probably 2019 … for years, all i could stomach were essays and memoirs and the like .. i couldn’t tell you why … but i committed to this book, after trying and failing to read it in the summer of 2022 when i lived in cleveland and was, by all accounts, happier than this .. and i loved it ! and now i want to read another
#i have a huge backlog of books#fiction & nonfiction .. bc even if i was not reading fiction i was still buying it or receiving it from others#i got left hand actually from a professor who was moving to new york .. at their going away party at their house at the end of senior year#it’s where i got jeanette winterson’s the passion too .. and i think i’ll try to finish it next

no one look at me i’m being sappy abt xarrastarion. anyway i can’t stop thinking abt astarion embroidering little fragments of xarrai’s poetry or songs on his clothes post-game like the one that larian patched out of the description for his camp clothes. smth abt keeping them close to his skin always… the way he starts to learn who they are when they start showing him the things they’ve never shown anyone else and the comfort he finds in their words (despite giving them so much shit every time they wax poetic at him). i’m ill. xarrai calls him a hopeless romantic and he tells them they have no room to talk bc they’re a fucking bard. he stitches their words into the cuff of his sleeve in thread just barely a different color from his shirt so he can ghost his fingers over them like a talisman against the dark and the weight of his memory. years later there’s a love song xarrai won’t outright say is about him embroidered in it’s entirety on the inside of his winter coat where it lays against his chest.
#the prerequisite for this tho is that xarrai dumps a box of loose paper in his lap and hands him a book of keys for the incredibly#convoluted cyphers they wrote everything in because they are extremely paranoid#and just tell him ‘okay have fun :)’#‘no i’m not going to help. hope ur ready to learn infernal btw :)’#they r so annoying.#they stop writing everything in code post game. eventually. but there are 15 years of backlog to get thru first lol#obvs astarion does keep embroidering their poetry and songs on his clothes after they die. btw. obviously.#does a bard ever really die as long as someone remembers their stories?#bard/astarion romance goes so hard forever. poetry lover married a poet.#r. hold me like a knife#漫言

now out on my podcast Backlog Books:
Brothers in Arms by Lois McMaster Bujold
Gosh this was such a good book. I would not recommend this as your starting point to the series. We are deep in it with this one, plopped in the middle of the action and trauma.
Uncovering a secret plot that’s been hidden for 15 years? Easy. Playing three separate security forces against each other? No problem. Convincing his clone that he means it when he offers him a place in the family and freedom to be himself? Now that’s going to be a problem.
#this background was such a choice lmao#OH WELL#cara reads the vorkosigan saga#brothers in arms#my book picture#lois mcmaster bujold#vorkosigan saga#backlog books podcast
