What I’ve Read
Into the Brighter Night – (https://archiveofourown.org/works/20935463) Shoalsea – A great fanfic that delves into Tim Drake and the many many roles he plays in his family and his various teams. People try to communicate – not great! But they are trying. It’s great.
Jackalope Wives and Other Stories - T. Kingfisher – Honestly just great. The stories I have already talked about were generally all great, there are some poems that I think deserve a re-read. Honestly, great work here.
What I’m Reading
The Return of the King – 38% - I grow more convinced that JRR Tolkien deserves to fight Peter Jackson in a duel. Horrorstor – Grady Hendrix - like 30% - it’s a goofy book format and I’m looking forward to getting into the deeper plot
Love Potion for the Alpha – Alice Coldbreath (not her best work but short and fun) – 75%
It Came from the Closet: Queer Reflections on Horror – 46%
Power Broker – Audiobook Part 3 – 1%
The Archive Undying -12% Restarted – I think I was distracted when I first listened, this is going much better
He Who Drowned the World – 59%
Static:
The Lottery and Other Stories – 44%
Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation – 31% Ash: A Secret History – 23%
Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire 5%
Count of Monte Cristo 48%
What I’ll Read Next
Worn: A People’s History of Clothing by Sofi Thanhauser
Petals on the Wind
Swordcrossed
Strange Practice
The Centre -Sidiqi
The City of Brass - Fun with Necromancy book club
I spent the day in the car, it seems - there was a bit of visiting with family and hanging out with their new dog, who is a charmer but still kind of a wild creature learning to be a pet, and hard to photograph due to his dark coat. I feel like early December is the Thursday of the year - so close to being done with work! and yet! There's family but no travel in my upcoming holiday plans so I'm not quite sure how it make it feel "vacation-y" - I like having the break! Maybe I'll do some home maintenance stuff...
