What have you been reading today? Everything counts, from a novel-length fic to the labels on your washing!

Lots of social media. Distracting hard from very emotional events of today.

Before bed, I managed another chapter of The Sixth Extinction. The end is nigh...possibly for all of us. /o\

It seems to have been That Sort of Day for several of us.

So I, uh. Fell back into Harry Potter and the Nightmares of Futures Past. And read the whole thing (so far) last night. What was I saying about not having time?

(I know what the problem is with me actually reading Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, like I mean to be doing. Every scene with Ginny or Dobby is embarrassment squick to the max.)

Oh god, you are right about Chamber of Secrets, that's why I always rush through it at full speed so I can get up to Azkaban.

[alexseanchai]

I made it to PoA!

...and then got recced an epic Pokemon fic. Oy. Good thing term's out.

[nanila]

Hurrah for making it through the squick!

Reading Twitter, and
The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater and
entries in an LJ of someone I don't follow, but read the entries now and then
and
the insert on a box of snacks - a Graze box - that I had to arrange redelivery on - to check the date of edibility on the snacks.

That's a fun mix!

One thing I read yesterday that I forgot to mention was a procedural document I wrote several years ago. It was pleasing to find that I could still follow it.

Twitter and linked pages.

Seems to have been a theme yesterday!

I have a cold and the weather is wet and windy, so it must be time for a comfort re-read of Harry Potter. Currently about 3/4s of the way through The Philosophers Stone. Will make a batch of muffins and finish it this afternoon.

Mmm, muffins and comfort reading. Sounds like a great way to aid cold recovery.
