It seems fitting that the Fabulous Fall Giveaway Hop ends tonight, on this first fabulous fall weekend. It’s beautiful here in Atlanta, and the temperature has finally dropped down from OMG IT’S HOT to just lovely. It’ll be long-sleeve weather soon! Speaking of lovely things, here’s a particularly good picture of the lovely Luna, the […]
Banned Books Week begins today, and I can’t even. By that I mean that the whole mess has gotten so far out of hand that when I try to talk about it I end up stuttering in rage. I know I’m not alone. The whole damn point of a public library is that it has […]
It’s been a week, hasn’t it? The World Science Fiction Convention was held last weekend in Chicago. We had intended to go, but after we both came home with COVID from the library convention in June we decided to give Worldcon a pass this year after all. But I did watch the Hugo Awards Ceremony […]
You’ve heard of “Jumping Jehoshaphat”? Here’s “Leaping Lucifer”, with the added bonus of a ‘Traveling Tuna” heading for the exit. For those in the U.S. I hope you’re having a terrific Labor Day Weekend. Current Giveaways: $10 Gift Card or $10 Book in the Summer 2022 Seasons of Books Giveaway Hop $10 Gift Card or […]
As far as books go, this week started terrifically and ended well, but middled in the slough of despond a bit. Looking back, I think the biggest issue with both Would You Rather and Small Town, Big Magic was that they were both billed as romcoms and neither of them were. I could even debate […]
I needed a bit of extra time to get this post together this weekend because I was having a difficult time deciding what I felt like reading this week – at least until I prepped the Stacking the Shelves post and decided that T. Kingfisher’s The Seventh Bride and Karen White’s The Shop on Royal […]
I think this is it for this week? I changed my mind (a LOT) about the end of the week – and may change it yet again before I get there. But this is what it looks like, at least so far! Speaking of what things look like, this is a picture of Luna, zoombombing […]
And the picture below says everything anyone ever needed to know about why Luna and Tuna needed to be adopted TOGETHER. She’s not actually THAT small, although he is THAT big. She was just further down the well between Galen’s legs when he took the picture. While the clowder has not yet achieved “peace in […]
I saw Luna on the stairs just now, went to pet her, calling her “pretty girl”, because she is – and Hecate came running from out of nowhere. Hecate is still in the “leaky teakettle” phase of acceptance of the newcomers. Lucifer has totally adopted them – or perhaps vice versa, while George is still […]
After a couple of successful – meaning relatively quiet – supervised visits by the incumbent clowder, Luna and Tuna were officially released into the general population of household cats Thursday evening. As World War III has not yet occurred, this is considered a successful introduction. In celebration, here’s a picture of George and Tuna comparing […]
