I'm back to recommending things! And as always, I spent way more time than I had planned to answer some questions and talk about coming back from my break!

absolutely make things that you are passionate about, when you feel like it. regardless of what you think your audience wants. but also we want that

this!! i as an audience member want the people i support & consume media from to be mentally/emotionally safe and making things that make them happy, on a schedule that works for them. that's it

I haven't thought about the Westing Game in years but it's so much fun

no way! the westing game was one of my FAVORITE books as a kid! it was so influential to me as a precocious annoying preteen being able to see myself in the "main" character, and I've never heard anyone talk about it but it is so deserving of a brecommendation.

Holy SHIT Brian, what a throwback. I grew up with the Westing Game as a favorite, and one of the first books that I reread multiple times.

I am happy to hear Dungeon Meshi is completed. I am out here waiting on too many mangas to drop their next chapters like a sucker and need more recommendations for completed mangas while I bide my time. ⏳

OMG the Westing Game...... we read that in like 7th?? grade and I had people yelling BOOM! at me for weeks thanks to Otis Amber lmao. I do remember it being interesting through, I might have to reread it sometime! Glad to see you back Brecommending, I hope you're doing well!! :D

Love to provide the opportunity for you to do “a plug”, happy to help 😉. Thanks for the Brecommendations! I find audiobooks helpful for getting to sleep, particularly if you can put them on a timer. That or a decent video essay, I can’t tell you how much Elden Ring lore and themes must be buried in my unconscious mind because of it!

Greg Miller

Thank you for reminding me of Westing Game, I read it for school and adored it! Have you seen anything about Slay the Princess? I think it'd be pretty up your alley - its content warnings need to be respected, but it's like if Stanley Parable was written by Poe, and I think you'd enjoy the nexus of narrative and horror.

The Westing Game was my favorite book in middle school (I was a precocious kid)!!

If you really love novels with very strong character writing, may I humbly recommend Robin Hobb's Farseer trilogy (and there are many more books after the initial trilogy as well!); I don't want to oversell it, but I have never read anything as good as these books, the way the characters are written is just kind of unbelievably good. Basically a character study that happens to be set in a fantasy realm.

Just finished Westing Game and really enjoyed it! The edition I borrowed from my library had all of these scans of the author's notes and drawing, it was really cool

I remember LOVING The Westing Game. Might need to revisit it.
