Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality is a wonderful take on HP where instead of being raised by a family full of hate and dysfunction, the parents are scientists. Harry then brings the Scientific Method to Hogwarts and analyzes how magic works. He also becomes friends with Draco! Highly recommended.

It's only taken me 30 years but I finally got around to reading the original version of the novel, #Inquisitor, by Ian Watson. I found it to be a decent enough adventure story with plenty of that early #RogueTrader weirdness that I enjoy more than recent #Warhammer40000 stuff.
Time to move on to its sequel, #Harlequin.

I have been reading, for the fourth or fifth time Becoming Duchess Goldblatt by Anonymous.
It’s the story of a woman who, when undergoing personal struggle, created a fictional character on social media and inadvertently built a community around her.
But one of the themes of the book is how in times of personal tragedy, grief, or depression, people treat you as untouchable. Friends you thought were close disappear and relatives go silent. People beat a hasty retreat when they see you coming, “forget” to return a call, stop inviting you out.
“I understood why, sort of. The more I kept losing, the more I kept losing, and nobody wants to catch that disease,” writes Anonymous.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame - by Victor Hugo
God grant me the serenity to realise that the #reading I want to get done won't be the reading that will be done and the wisdom to realise as long as I've enjoyed it it's all good.
The British Secret Service, working to uncover a large-scale blackmail ring and catch its mysterious mastermind ‘The Spider’, find themselves at the country residence Feltham Abbey where a fancy-dress ball is in full swing.
In the tumult of revelry, Sir Ralph Feltham is found dead. Not the atmosphere bewildered guest Tony was expecting, he sets out make sense of the night’s activities and the motives of the other guests.

乐景车祸死后，绑定直播系统，穿越到了苦情剧世界。 直播系统：你的任务就是扮演男主，用爱呵护女主，化解观众对于苦情剧的怨念。 乐景：ok，明白了。
小白花女主：“贱妾没有为夫君生下儿子，求夫君责罚，嘤嘤嘤。” 乐景：“好，那你去上学吧。不考上大学，别进我家大门。” 系统：？？？
遇见极品老妈刁难女主，系统激动道：“宿主快上！体现你男子力的时候到了，快去为女主撑腰，打脸恶婆婆！” 乐景：“妈，我看你闲着也没事做，我送你出国留学吧。” 系统：？？？
青梅竹马的表妹抱着女主的腿，哭得梨花带雨：“我不求名分，只求待在表哥、表嫂身边，哪怕当个丫鬟都可以！” 系统：“宿主，请冷硬拒绝表妹的要求，并向女主大胆表白！” 乐景：“你什么大学毕业的？有硕士学历吗？懂几门外语？有职业证书吗？有几年工作经验？” 表妹：……？？？ 乐景又看向女主：“你和她废话什么？还想不想考大学了？给我学习去！” 系统：？？？ …
“是啊，我姓黎，不姓谢。”黎春花目光悠长陷入怅惘的追忆，“可是，自从我嫁人后，人们都称我为‘谢太太’，后来，我又成为了‘谢老太太’。你爹死后，再也无人喊我‘春花’；你们喊我‘妈’，儿孙们喊我‘奶奶’，没有人喊我名字；大家都尊敬我，但是很少有人问过的我的名字。”她高高仰起头，眼神高傲凛然，似一只骄傲巡视领地的狮子，“我是黎春花，是山西黎家的大小姐，我三岁会打算盘，十岁跟我爹出门做生意，十三岁下南洋和美国人做生意。我家所有人都没有我心算的速度快，我爹一直可惜我不是男儿，要不然一定要让我接管黎家的产业！”黎春花顿了顿，两兄弟竟然有点不敢对上母亲咄咄逼人的目光。女人扬眉展笑，就像少女时期那样意气风发笑道：“我已经做了四十年的‘谢家夫人’了！我是黎春花，是晋商之后，不是谁谁的妻子、谁谁的母亲，更不是谁谁的奶奶！”

他们言笑晏晏，三言两语间就已经决定了温招娣未来的命运，没有人想过询问温招娣对此的看法和意见；而身为母亲的舅妈，从始至终都柔顺的坐在一旁，脸上挂着温婉贤淑的端庄笑容，安静扮演一个装饰品。 乐景虽然知道，以温招娣柔顺的性格，向来不会反驳别人替她做出的决定；但是，此时，温绍和谢知涯对待她如此轻慢的态度，还是让乐景倍感讽刺——他足够幸运，因为是男人，所以才享受了如此多“特权”；如果他是女人的话，此时对他的种种宠溺和爱护，会立刻变作苛责和漠视。 不过，归根结底，乐景也从头到尾没有问过温招娣的想法。他和他们，其实也并没有什么区别。
