Finished reading: Children of Memory by Adrian Tchaikovsky 📚
Wha a great read! I love the way the previous two books in the series have contributed to this wider universe. Hopefully there’s more to the series.
Spent the past few days Cenote-hopping around the Yucatán region. Amazing places and incredibly relaxing!
Now onto even more relaxed pursuits, time for the relaxed beach phase of our trip.
Movie Log 🍿: Notes on a Scandal, 2006 - ★★★★
Enjoyed what I can only describe as pure chaos at the Lucha Libre in Mexico City earlier this week. Excellent fun and the biggest Micheladas you’ll ever see
The amazing architecture of Mitla, a Zapotec settlement in Oaxaca. Unbelievably preserved!
Finished reading: Strange Pictures by Uketsu 📚
A good mystery that reminded me of the game Hotel Dusk Room 215. It was engaging trying to piece things together.
The lovely streets of Puebla 🇲🇽

I think I’ve had every lager available now

Finished reading: Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut 📚
A really interesting read. Felt like an exploration of PTSD. I’d be very interested to know where the autobiographical bits end and the fiction begins.
Stopped at a taco restaurant the other night and had what I think could be the meal of the trip. From now on, I would like all my meats cooked al pastor.
Día de los Muertos in Mexico City

Finished reading: The Mercy of Gods by James S. A. Corey 📚
Some great universe building here, really enjoyable novel and I’m looking forward to more!
Started using the Tapestry app these past few days and I’m now obsessed with the idea of creating a connector for it. I just need to find something!
Movie Log 🍿: One Battle After Another, 2025 - ★★★★★
Genuinely thought they’d cast Benicio Del Toro as old Leonardo Di Caprio for a moment. What a movie. Probably film of the year
