If you&#39;re an author that prefers to keep it shorter, don&#39;t force yourself to write longer books than you like. <br/>Also books don&#39;t have to be immaculate to be enjoyable. I&#39;m glad we chose your book for our Solarpunk book club :)<br/><br/>Edit: also thank you for clarifying the meaning of kolo 2026-10-28T05:44:56Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsgzar70awx8r3leku2ewlvaputs5sfnxv3xx4vcdlf28tm5z2e7kgzyptk5939l0vszfh6nwyeze9uk8e25tsylnxg6tlslpxdgdwgwa042x68sfz In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsg6e46e3s5f0j5u873gsdhw24ga0ks9e86e0m6x3hv2rd8m3uyffq9dk2ys'>nevent1q…k2ys</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>but I found no exact meaning, that fits the bill (I&#39;ve found several places that are named Kolo, one rebel fighter and a place known for water sparcity.)<br/><br/>If you would like to read a way to long review of your book (in German though), you can find it here: <a href="https://vger.to/feddit.org/post/37282918">https://vger.to/feddit.org/post/37282918</a> <br/><br/>Thank you for writing &#34;The blossoming of the big tree&#34;.

My main gripe with the book is that it is too short^^ (which leaves out more context, which I would have liked in some parts). I&#39;m also not a big fan of the ousting practices. <br/><br/>I&#39;ve got one question remaining: what exactly does &#34;Kolo!&#34; mean? I get it&#39;s a curse 1/2 2026-10-27T19:59:23Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsw422x37hvsqn77ahmh8vqehulp35x339qu8zg0ytvezgd7fq877czyptk5939l0vszfh6nwyeze9uk8e25tsylnxg6tlslpxdgdwgwa042e6kg37 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsf7s5fwwn5en8lsy864gvfuy6jk68dsz9anc768wk0re0wmvqfhhclzq5mv'>nevent1q…q5mv</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>whooops 😅🙈 2026-10-25T09:44:04Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs27lqcm4a9xjgj6ph5rud2n77gnc8wd4pq5smzp8p8s8xttlqpdvszyptk5939l0vszfh6nwyeze9uk8e25tsylnxg6tlslpxdgdwgwa042p59ry4 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqszznu539uz8vgwfn79wv6gm9tlyq9wj6l24lwmp0lx24p7f5srcjs72myus'>nevent1q…myus</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>the fediverse is a crazy place ^^ the author of the book we&#39;re reading right now found our 5-15 people large book club and made a post about it:)<br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1j52w4yqkh3rfeqjgr0dx7h83hvsc58scaat36skh8h6m64aul30q9yqd6f" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>luce</span> (<span class="italic">npub1j52…qd6f</span>)</a></span> in case you haven&#39;t seen it (luce started it all :) )<br/><br/>I&#39;ve bought the book but haven&#39;t started reading yet.
