The Great Library of Autostraddle 11 years, 11 months agoIn the last few days I’ve finished up a couple of books I’ve been reading:
‘In the Peanut Gallery with Mystery Science Theater 3000: Essays on Film, Fandom, Technology, and the Culture of Riffing’ eds. Robert Weiner and Shelley Barba – This was fun. I loves me some MST and you could tell the people who wrote these essays do too. The book…[Read more]

The Great Library of Autostraddle 11 years, 12 months agoOkay, so I was going to read that Cleopatra biography, but then I got ‘Monstrous Regiment’ by Terry Pratchett in the mail and had to read it first.
I just finished it today and I LOVED it! I’m making my way through the Discworld books all willynilly, but out of the ones I’ve read so far I think this is my favorite. It was hilarious and somehow…[Read more]
