@Varyk How short a time are we talking?

This one might be a bit of a cheat, but: The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton. Technically everything happens within a day.

@Pluto @NovaPrime
I have been using Storygraph for a couple of years now and really like it. Exported my Goodreads data and imported it into Storygraph. There was some cleanup I had to do, as Goodreads was often missing start / end dates for reading history.

What I really like about Storygraph is that it's not bloated the way that Goodreads is. The interface is clean and fairly easy to navigate and it has very few unwanted features. The stats are cool too. https://app.thestorygraph.com/stats/hybridhavoc?year=2024

Checked out Silent Hill Ascension last night and yeah, was not impressed and doubt I'll look at it again.

@Adderbox76 @Mothra Love the Death Gate Cycle, would also recommend it. It feels a bit like the prototype for Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere.

@Aviandelight @Mothra This is a great series. I recently did a re-read and it still holds up.

@GunnarRunnar to be fair, the OP is not the one that asked for an explanation.

Microsoft wins FTC fight to buy Activision Blizzard

https://www.theverge.com/2023/7/11/23779039/microsoft-activision-blizzard-ftc-trial-win

From the article, quoting Judge Corley:

... the Court finds the FTC has not shown a likelihood it will prevail on its claim this particular vertical merger in this specific industry may substantially lessen competition. To the contrary, the record evidence points to more consumer access to Call of Duty and other Activision content. The motion for a preliminary injunction is therefore DENIED.

I've been strongly considering picking this up. I was a big fan of Yuke's old WCW games on N64 and this seems to really lean into that lineage.

Queers of Time, a #WheelOfTime podcast, is having an anniversary and charity livestream supporting the Marsha P Johnson Institute, which helps uplift the voices of Black Trans people.

Edit because I'm seeing this get some engagement now: the livestream was on June 3rd.
