Shanna & Languages

Of translation, books, languages and me

2020 Tilted Axis Press Subscription

I’m late in the game of book subscription boxes. How could I not know that such a thing exists?! I need to rethink whether I can call myself a book lover. But better late than never, so I got myself the 2020 and 2021 subscription from Tilted Axis Press.

The great thing about being late is that instead of getting the books as and when they are published, I get to have all six at one go! Shipping was amazingly fast despite the COVID situation. Received the books in 9 days and in pristine condition. Sometimes I hesitate to buy books online because I’m afraid that they will come creased (or tattered!), am I the only one?

While I love reading, I tend to stick to specific genres/themes or authors (who may write books across diverse genres). For about 2 years, I was crazy about time-travel (穿越言情) books, so I read almost exclusively in that. There was a period where I was into forensics / crime books, and for the past 10 years, I bought almost all the books that Taiwanese author Giddens (九把刀)wrote.

I’m glad that my ongoing obsession is on translated fiction. It really introduces me to a wider range of authors and genres that I’ve read previously. The Tilted Axis subscription looks great. I may not have picked them in the library / from the bookstore, but now I’m so excited to delve into the books.

I’ll share more once I’ve finished reading. It’s crazy how I started the site in October and didn’t update since then. 2020 is a time warp.

Happy reading. If you happen to come across this space, please let me know what are your favourite books. 🙂
