I was tagged by @bethanyactually. Thank you!! ☺️

No I did not put Heated Rivalry since I'm really just obsessed with episode 3 and that's not enough to get onto this list.

Definitely always considering myself tagged when @floating-in-the-blue​ does fun things :D

Thank youuuu!!! <3

11. what non-fiction books do you like if any?

I really don't read enough non-fiction, tbh. I think (auto-)biographies are what I've read the most (discounting academic books when I was still in university).

12. did you enjoy any compulsory high school readings?

"Krabat" by Ottfried Preussler is a fantastic book and I'm glad we read that. I've reread it at least twice so far. "To Kill a Mockingbird" is amazing of course and I just reread that last year.

I think I also really enjoyed Sophocle's "Antigone" as well. And my German teacher introduced me (and through me my sister) to Christoph Ransmayr, which I'm really grateful for.

19. most disliked popular books?

Hm ... there's surely been some popular books that I didn't like but I don't hate read or waste time on books I really don't enjoy.

The only instances I can remember of actively hating something was the 50 Shades of Grey hype and before that, Twilight. Though I think I was mostly swept away by the hate mob for Twilight. I did read them all later (because I'd chosen them for my written English exam at uni) and while I still didn't really enjoy them, I have to admit that the power fantasy these books invoke really worked.

Reading: "La Belle Sauvage - The Boook of Dust 1" by Philip Pullman + "Writing Tools" by Roy Peter Clark

Last series: I'm rewatching "His Dark Materials" (slowly) and also rewatching "Heated Rivalry" episode 3 (a lot)

Last film: hm ... might have been the third Benoit Blanc, Wake Up Dead Man, which was fantastic. I don't think there was anything after that

Last song: "Evil Eye" by Franz Ferdinand (playlist shuffle during my lunch break)

Sweet or salty: I need both. In a loop. But I am unfortunately a sweet tooth so sweet I guess

Coffee or tea: coffee as a flavour in ice cream and desserts? YES PLEASE! coffee in coffee? nope!

I am working on drinking more tea but it's still a battle. Hot water and I are not friends.

Working on:

my January fandom bingo card

still trying to learn that one Christmas carol on the piano because I didn't manage it before Christmas

learning Dutch (still need to practice today)

TWO Heated Rivalry fics now, both disjointed af because the characters keep babbling in my head and I'm left with random fragments (*sob* this was supposed to be the year when i finally finish the Alex Adoption fic, why new hyperfixation now?? WHY??!?!!!)

getting back into fanart/graphics stuff with Affinity
