Ctrl your plot. Alt your canon. Read everything

Hey there. I’m Elias, and this is ctrlaltread, my little chaos console for all things books, fandom, and stories that hit like a plot twist at 2AM.

This blog is part journal, part fandom flail, part book tracker, and 100% unfiltered nerd joy.

If it’s got secret codes, ancient artifacts, wormholes, time travel, or intergalactic diplomacy, I’m all in. You’ll find me spiraling over conspiracy thrillers, yelling about old sci-fi shows, and occasionally disappearing into video games for “research” (read: side quests and cutscene emotions).

What you’ll find here:

📚 Mini reviews & reading reactions
🌀 Fandom deep dives, starter packs & memory posts
🎮 Book/game chatter and crossover thoughts
💥 Rants, raves, and ridiculous theories
✨ Frequent screaming about Doctor Who, Stargate, Trek, Star Wars, and the general nonsense of ancient civilizations hiding USB drives

Stuff I love:

• Dan Brown, Matthew Reilly, Tolkien, classic and chaotic sci-fi
• Stories that spiral, worlds that expand, and lore I can lose sleep over
• Game time that's equal parts puzzle-solving, exploration, and panic
• Talking about fandom like it's a historical artifact

This space is casual, slightly unhinged, and built for fellow readers, fandom nerds, and lore goblins. Pull up a chair, say hi, drop a rec, or just lurk and vibe - I’m glad you’re here.
