cornerofmadnessWork is already shaping up to be annoying AF so the less said there the better. So have the Wednesday reading meme
But first happy birthday toclassics_lover
What I Just Finished Reading: I read SO MUCH this week The Ghostway by Tony Hillerman (a reread from the 80s, this one wasn't as good as I remembered it) The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and Other Stories by Robert Louis Stevenson (I had never read it believe it or not. Unsurprisingly not like most of the movies), and Drowned Wednesday by Garth Nix (outside of one uncomfortable fatphobic chapter, I enjoyed this)
What I am Currently Reading:The Ancient Child by N. Scott Momaday (not enjoying this, doing it for the popsugar challenge or I'd have bailed by now) and From Here to Eternity: Traveling the World to Find the Good Death by Caitlin Doughty and I'm enjoying it so far but it is not for the faint of heart, very frank descriptions of cremation and natural decomposition.
What I Plan to Read Next: the graphic novel about feminist horror via werewolves that I got from the library
Challenge #10
In your own space, rec a fanwork (fic, art, vid, playlist, anything!) you did not create.
Sometimes I feel like a bad fan. I don't always consume, and I definitely don't consume nearly as much as I read. That said I DO have recs for you.

fandomtrees has SO much good stuff there and it's all fresh having just been released last week.
Most of the following is Prodigal Son (most of what I'm looking at now) unless otherwise marked
Monster Hunters by Brumeier Prodigal Son done as a Buffy the Vampire Slayer AU
The Perfect Gift Hannah_CTWK and art by Kanarek13
In Time Kanarek13, ProcrastinatingSab
The Hickey Leif (Longmire!)
Fallen Angels ProcrastinatingSab
Bruises Fade Like Memories OfScarletLetters and tess_genor (Spiderman No Way Home, self-cest)
Flashing Lights UnfancyWitchery
Yes, Enchantress Loki/Slyvie art, Ponderosa
And it's not out yet but I've seen glimpses (and am part of this) where to find the virtual Season 3 of Prodigal Son
Also you can look at my fanfic recs tag. I try to rec stuff weekly.
