June wrapped. Games, books, shows — consumed a lot, felt most of it. Death Stranding 2 was the standout. One book quietly wrecked me. TV was a mixed bag of comfort and chaos. Full breakdown below.

Books this month: The Lost Bookshop by Evie Woods — 8.5/10. A bookshop that exists between timelines. Exactly as good as it sounds. Ashramed by Dahlia Sen Oberoi — from chaos to calm. Felt personally assigned. June needed both kinds of reads.

Screens this month: From S4 — still the best slow burn on TV. Your Friends & Neighbors S1 + S2 — more bingeable than I expected. India's Got Latent S2 — laughed embarrassingly hard. Bhoot Bangla — should have skipped it. Obsession — dark, weird, 9/10, no regrets.

📚 Books Underground — Murakami. Survivor accounts from the 1995 Tokyo sarin attack. Too dense and heavy for me. The Vatican Secret — Leadbeater thriller. Exactly what it says on the tin. The Lost Bookshop — Evie Woods. Still reading. Cosy, easy to disappear into.

May was a great month for fiction. Real life? Separate thread. 😅 What did you consume this month?

🎮 Games Nocturnal — beautiful 2D action. Couldn't finish it. Wuchang: Fallen Feathers — stunning. Did not work for me. Pragmata — gave it a day. Didn't stick. Death Stranding 2 — still going. Kojima is unhinged (affectionately). Crimson Desert — just started. Looks promising.

🎬 Watched Fleabag — 9/10. Late to it. No regrets. Perfect. Your Name — 10/10. Watched yesterday, still thinking about it. Best anime in months. Devil Wears Prada 2 — 8/10. Genuinely good. Rooster — 8.5/10. Quietly excellent. From S4 + Your Friends & Neighbors — still going.

April reading recap 📚 The Atlas Six… it was not for me, the dark academia aesthetic carried it. Now deep in The Vatican Secret 🕯️🗝️ — let's see if Rome redeems May. What are you reading?

I just started using @WisprFlow on my PC, and it works like magic. I don't think I need to type anymore. Cheers @tankots
