Nothing wrong with the Goodreads page. The Polish description is set as the default description. Some of the other editions have English descriptions.
Publishers Worry as Ebooks Fly off Libraries' Virtual Shelveshttps://www.wired.com/story/publisher...
We're making things difficult for libraries during these pandemic times. I wonder what the fallout might be?
The first Star Wars Reads was in October 2012 and it's an annual event, but I don't know why October.
2020: 104/100Sword: 40/24
Laser: 23/24
Comics: 19/24
Shorts: 11/24
Way over on the Sword side. Almost done with Laser. Comics shouldn't be too difficult to finish. Haven't felt like reading shorts. Not sure why.

While debate doom-scrolling on the twitters this evening, I ran across this recent article recommended by @SFSignalThe Spanish-speaking writers producing ambitious sci-fi and fantasy novels by Silvia Moreno-Garcia and Lavie Tidhar

They're recommending titles that have been translated into English. One of them looked familiar and sure enough, Red Dust by Yoss, is sitting in my TBR pile.
Anything interest you?

Have any of the comics readers read Waldo's Hawaiian Holiday: The "Quasi-Sequel" to Repo Man? I'm wondering if it's worth a look.

I don't often seek out horror novels to read, but sometimes I can't resist books like Killer Flies by Mark Kendall (a pseudonym of Melinda M. Snodgrass). Killer Flies is set in New Mexico and reads like some of the real sh*t that happens in my home state.This is one of the books found in Paperbacks from Hell: The Twisted History of '70s and '80s Horror Fiction by Grady Hendrix which is where all good horror novels have gone to die and be resurrected.
Another place I like to go for wallowing in schlock horror paperbacks is http://toomuchhorrorfiction.blogspot....
Yes, with Spooktober coming up, its time for something horrific. I've had this book lying around for awhile. Seems like a good time to read it.
