I read a book a day on average so probably 130 or so. They'll be 99% romance - SFR with the occasional CR or romantasy book plus the occasional Sci Fi book that's not SFR.

So far I'm at 159 for the year. That doesn't count novellas, as I don't log them. There are also a handful of books I don't log in Goodreads for personal reasons. My primary genre is romance by a wide margin; I've read a handful of thrillers.

I've read/listened to 30 books this year! I've pretty sure I DNF'd twice that but I'm a mood reader lol. Mostly romance with nearly half of my list being Beverly Jenkins, so that makes the bulk of it historical romance. My biggest surprise was probably {The Wallflower Wager by Tessa Dare}, it was super hot. And technically not a romance but {Mama Day by Gloria Naylor} might be my new favorite book ever; it has a great love story with some amazing rural magical realism.

160 so far this year; several were re-reads. Only about 6 were audiobooks. My average book length is around 200 pages. But this week I've been in a reading slump and haven't read as much even though I have time!

GameStop shares fall 20% after it files to sell additional stock, says first quarter sales dropped

• GameStop will sell up to 45 million common shares in an at-the-market offering.

• The video game retailer reported preliminary results that showed a drop in first-quarter sales.

• The news comes after GameStop's stock surged earlier this week in a brief revival of the meme stock trade.

GameStop shares tumbled 20% Friday after the video game retailer said it plans to sell additional shares and reported preliminary results that showed a drop in first-quarter sales.

In a new regulatory filing, the video game retailer said it will sell up to 45 million class A common shares in an at-the-market offering. The sale comes after GameStop shares surged earlier this week in a brief revival of the meme stock trade.

Meanwhile, in a separate statement, GameStop said it now expects net first-quarter sales in the range of $872 million to $892 million, down from around $1.24 billion in the same quarter last year. Two analysts polled by FactSet said they expected a first-quarter revenue of around $1 billion.

GameStop's first-quarter net loss is expected to be between $27 million and $37 million, narrower than a net loss of $50.5 million in the year-earlier period. The brick-and-mortar company has been grappling with competition from e-commerce-based competitors. In late March, GameStop announced an unspecified number of job cuts to reduce costs.

The rally in GameStop this week appeared to be partially fueled by posts on X from the long-dormant account of “Roaring Kitty,” also known as Keith Gill, one of the key figures in the 2021 meme stock mania. GameStop hit a high of $64.83 per share on Tuesday, up more than 200% from close on May 10.

The rally fizzled out later in the week, with GameStop dropping sharply on Wednesday and Thursday. Shares closed Thursday at just $27.67, down more than 50% from the highs of the week. Net retail trader inflows have been much smaller than the amount seen during the trading frenzy three years ago.

Michael Pachter, a Wedbush analyst covering GameStop, said GameStop is not in a position to be profitable.

“They made $6 million last year and burned cash,” Pachter said. “We expect them to lose $100 million a year going forward. It's a race to see if they can close stores fast enough to limit losses, but they have no plan that would suggest they can grow revenues or profits, and their core business is in decline.”

Pachter has an underperform rating on GameStop and a $5.60 price target.

@TracingWoodgrains good luck with your next job. I'm sure you'll be great

You think King knew it was fake from the start?

I'd like readers to consider the evidence in “Veritas” and decide for themselves.

She didn't present photographs when she first announced the papyrus to her colleagues. That immediately raised alarms, that she didn't give her own colleagues the evidence needed to evaluate the papyrus. And she didn't release images of the other key piece in Fritz's collection, a fragment supposedly from the Gospel of John, which top scholars of Coptic had marked as a forgery within hours of seeing it.

Why withhold evidence from colleagues if you believe it's authentic? Did she know it was fake and thought the ends justify the means? Was she willing to use a fake sensation to whet the public's appetite for this other interesting object (the Gnostic gospels)? To use a forgery to point to the truth?
