Nick Carraway―paper soldier and novelist―has found a life and a living watching the mad magical …
During the twenties, New York was a place where you could pull out all kinds of wonder just by dropping a quarter in the slot. I smiled pleasantly.
"It's a kind of magic to get what it is you want, isn't it?"

@picklish@books.theunseen.city didn't we read something of them in the club before? It doesn't come up when I click on their name here on my instance. Was it the golden age hollywood one?

@j12i@wyrms.de Yeah, we read books.theunseen.city/book/405887/s/siren-queen (at my request [and most other people's disappointment <_<])

@picklish@books.theunseen.city ah, my instance has two database entries for the author. One day I'll have to figure out how this is fixed (though I suspect it's only for admins).
I think I didn't find it too bad. I need to try to get better at leaving reviews… It's been quite a few days already again since I finished The Ministry of Time.

@j12i@wyrms.de I find this is a common bookwyrm problem. If you edit the book, you can add another author (of the same name) and it will prompt you to disambiguate. I usually also remove the original author. I usually consolidate on the lower number author (which often has a description and more info, in my experience).
I don't always do this, but if there's a series I'm reading, it's nice to have all the books listed by the same author and not a doppleganger.
