I could suggest... books :)

The nightmare of not having enough books is more than enough justification.

I have had that horrible situation crop up.

They will be waiting for when you're ready so no loss. :)

Whatcha getting?

It isn't as if saving some for later will mean they go bad.

davesimpsonart.bsky.social•41 days ago

I think you might need to buy a few more, just in case

I use a 4:1 might:will read ratio for vacations.

I always end up buying books right before I move.

more Murderbot Diaries, latest Benedict Jacka book, a couple romance novels, Sun Eater book two

Okay but drop the romance titles

oggie.bsky.social•41 days ago

I am genuinely surprised you haven't read all 7-8 murderbot books ( never know how to count them...8 pieces of fiction, 1 novel, 1 very short story, 6 in the vague novella range?)

rincewind.run•41 days ago

never got around to them for whatever reason but picked up the first couple recently when the trailer went around and enjoyed them

louisevans.bsky.social•41 days ago

Oh yeah sounds like a couple days of books to me

themckenziest.gay•41 days ago

Hell yeah get them words in your brain in those particular orders :)

Sun Eater Book 2 is where the series really takes off especially in the back half

bookishnea.bsky.social•41 days ago

Which romances? Looking for some light reading.

I just bought the new compilation of the first 4 Murderbot novellas for my son. I already got him hooked on Scalzi. Next will be to ease him into Discworld.

boschii.bsky.social•41 days ago

Hell yeah!!!!!

My favourite part of long haul flights was buying at least 5 books both on the way out and on the way back. You never know what mood you might be in and what book will take your fancy.

Just went for 5 days to NYC with two books. Returned home with 8.
