"The Kid saved my sanity while I waited for my kid. I’m 32, I’ve had a home visit, I’ve filled out the paperwork, and now I’m waiting and waiting to be picked by a birth mother to adopt her baby. Through it all, I keep on my person a tattered copy of this Dan Savage book. How the story of a white gay couple adopting a baby boy feels like exactly the same journey as a single black woman adopting a baby girl is its magic."

Perfection
Just as good as the Lord of the Rings trilogy. We embark on a new journey, with mostly new characters, but some 'old' ones are still present. This time, the crew consists of mostly dwarves, which is always fun and interesting, considering the fact that we barely saw dwarves in LotR. As any story, it starts on a positive note, but we all know that all of this will end with war and some people dying, just not in the first movie.

I liked this.

I didn't enjoy it as much as [b:Love to Hate You|38089447|Love to Hate You|Jo Watson|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1524974137s/38089447.jpg|59758616] but it was still a pretty cute romantic comedy. I loved how the chemistry between the two very different characters made them determined to overcome those difference and how they're feelings developed.

I also loved the journey through rural Africa and back into urban cities.

I'm looking forward to reading some more books by the author.

Rolling Stone's 306th greatest album of all time (424th in the 2020 list)
Absolutely stunning album and great to have a re-listen as part of my journey through Rolling Stone's top 500 albums of all time. There is not a bad song here, and the range of styles and influences are so diverse that each song could plausibly be a different artist. From the opener of Devil's Haircut to the sublime New Pollution and the wonderful Where Its At, there is no filler at all.
