Aaand it’s Saturday again, already! Where does the time go? Here’s my Stacking the Shelves post for this week…
Comics TPBs
Ā 
Ā 
Sooo happy to have these TPBs. It’s awesome that Fraction has focused on Kate Bishop as well as Clint Barton; and of course I’m excited about Captain Marvel. Ms Marvel I’ve been intending to read for ages — I’ve actually been putting the comics covers in my STS posts as each individual issue released on Comixology, but now I own them in proper collected edition! Easier to read. The She-Hulk and Black Widow comics were impulse buys, but I love that I’ve had six superhero comics focusing onĀ women hit my doormat this week. And hey, Captain Marvel film with Carol DanversĀ announced!
Just please don’t talk to me about the (probable? rumoured? I don’t even know anymore) casting of Dr Strange, because I’m not over the disappointment yet.
Dead tree books
I came home from visiting my partner last Saturday, and there was a “small” spree. Oops? But I’d never bought anything from the new bookshop in St Pancras before (Hatchard’s), so I had to have a look. And I’ve been meaning to try more Borges and Calvino, and I like Shirley Jackson already, and…
Contributor copies
Nah, I don’t have a story in here (though if you know my name, you can find it somewhere inĀ Lightspeed) — I’m a slush reader forĀ Lightspeed, and Wendy Wagner was kind enough to make sure I got my contributor copies despite not getting my original email response about it. I don’t actually think anything in either volume came through me first, but I did read/rate ~30 submissions for the two collections, so IĀ have done my bit. (I’m on ~50 submissions read/rated for regularĀ Lightspeed!)
