    I see it's 'should you tag authors in book reviews' discourse time again. I'd hope we all agree that it's uncalled for with negative reviews. I'm not sure there is a definitive answer re positive reviews, though. I wrote this during the previous discussion

    Some people got tattoos to commemorate , I decided on a necklace featuring the moon phase from May 25th 2018. It is very *insert air quotes here* on brand, I think you'll agree!
