This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

What do you read these days?

Just out of curiosity.

And do you still read any king?

[–] LopensLeftArm@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'm mainlining Brandon Sanderson these days. I haven't read too much of King's stuff, although the extended version of The Stand is still in my top favorites and gets a reread regularly

Oh I never read the extended version.

I only read the first expanse book. Liked it, thought the ending was great

Thanks for your answers, have a good one

Thanks, you too! I actually haven't read the Expanse or any of James S. A. Corey's stuff, but I really dug the show and it's on my list to check out!

Fun fact: James S.A. Corey isn't a person and is the pen name that Ty Franck and David Abraham use when they're writing together.

The Expanse show was fantastic and the books are somehow better (there's also like 40 more years worth of story [although the books did a multi decade time jump between books to get there])!
