    The bestselling ANOTHER PLANET by is a funny, poignant and profoundly relatable memoir of growing up heart-wrenchingly far from the centre of things. “I adored this. Wise, tender, beautifully observed, deadly funny. A Green Belt memoir classic”

  3. And yes, as girl punk band names go, The Vacuettes is literally just lying there. I mean, come on.

  4. I don't know how I missed it at the time, but this from is as fine an examination of these experiences as you could hope to encounter. There's hardly a line in here that isn't recognisable and exquisitely observed.

  5. I was talking about the suffering of others (you observe it routinely in these settings) and how fraught their negotiation of the everyday can become. I’ll try to give some suitably anonymised examples later, but it’s as humbling and instructive for me as anyone else.

  6. I feel dreadful now. People were being lovely while I was sleeping the sleep of the just (well, the just and the moderately trolleyed), but I put this badly (because again, moderately trolleyed) and it wasn’t about me. Honestly, Ad Astra was harder.

  7. Last thought of the day, having spent eight hours in SVUH Neurology for the usual reasons. People live with suffering and diminishment that ought to be unendurable. They navigate by unrecognisable constellations, or in darkness. You can’t always tell. Kindness remains effective.

  8. And that’s not all they’re saying, obviously. But sure, congrats on surmounting online history’s noblest and loftiest hill. Sorry about the views.

    I support Bernie and really hope he wins the nomination, but people who say they won't vote for any other Democrat are promising to help end my access to health care.

  10. Dude, no argument or anything, but there’s weighty paragraphing and then there are whole title crawls.

  11. And with him our last living link to the Roman Republic. Vale, amice.

  12. And, more troublingly, a man bun.

  13. Okay, wait. Our serene contemplation of dude anguish has been intruded upon by baboons.

  14. We are watching Ad Astra. It’s very beautiful and I do approve of the heritage SF aesthetic. There’s quite a lot of man pain being offloaded, though, and we already have storage issues with household appliances.

  15. Look, it’s great that Mitt Romney is bringing this kind of passion to the Theon Greyjoy story arc, but I still think his agent should have made him read the whole script.

  16. Seriously, though. The real reason I’m so happy about this is because I looked at the list and couldn’t see a single book I wouldn’t pick up in a heartbeat. Like this one, which is out this week (hence their fabulously revamped avi).

  17. Oh, and in another act of extraordinary selflessness, I’ve relaxed my personal restriction on the use of exclamation marks for a whole 24 hours. If I’m going to be published in the US, I want to be respectful of the host culture.

  18. Also, I’d like think I’ve been of some small service to books Twitter by proving that it’s possible to take a legible screen shot of a PM announcement.

  20. I’m honestly a huge fan of this ‘further behind’. I’m not at all sure what it’s doing here, but it’s doing it with a quiet assurance that I find oddly touching.
