Epistory and Nanotales

Both fantastic games with beautiful graphics and good for typing practice.

Most garden centers carry it. I used Monterey B.t. spray for a really bad inchworm infestation. It worked really well, but it does stink.

I’m not sure if it went under the radar or if I just got into it late, but Fringe is a great show that has a lot of interesting twists. I haven’t watched it in a while and I’m planning a rewatch soon.

I’m still working through Kushiel’s Avatar by Jacqueline Carey. I love the series, I just read her writing style pretty slowly.

Also working through Cibola Burn by James S.A. Corey audiobook. I’m rereading the whole Expanse series in publication order, including the short stories.

I’m also thinking of starting The Expanse: Dragon Tooth graphic novels since I have a really nice boxed set from the Kickstarter.

This one is on my list because I loved The Expanse so much

Pantheon is such a good show and Ken Liu is an amazing author

I think it holds up pretty well. I actually enjoyed the second book more than the first because the MC is a little bit older and really grows throughout the story. The third one also has a time gap between books and I’m enjoying it a lot too. I love the political intrigue!

I started Kushiel’s Avatar by Jacqueline Carey over the weekend. I’m excited to read what happens in this arc of the story.

I’m also reading All Systems Red by Martha Wells via audiobook for the first time because of the show. I’m really enjoying both the books and the show.

I’ve been interested to see what kids read today, so I’ve been picking them up at my library. They are fun!

I’m currently reading Ice Planet Barbarians by Ruby Dixon. I recently finished The Stars Are Legion by Kameron Hurley which is a scifi-horror with really heavy topics and events. A few were moments pretty disturbing but it’s a great book, I recommend it.

IPB is my palate cleanser before finishing off the third Kushiel book, which also has somewhat heavy topics in places. I try to read lighter books in between my heavy stuff. I just needed something that didn’t have too much death, mutilation, and dismemberment lol

Lion-O and Poppy. Please excuse the random coco puffs, they are bunnies. IYKYK

Currently reading: Diary of a Wimpy Kid The Meltdown by Jeff Kinney Artificial Condition by Martha Wells Cibola Burn by James SA Corey (audiobook reread)

Recently finished: The Stars Too Fondly by Emily Hamilton Stars are Legion by Kameron Hurley (really good book, but some of it was disturbing)

I still need to read the third book of the Kushiel series by Jacqueline Carey, but I’ve been in the mood for more science fiction lately.

American Fiction (2023)

I have wanted to watch it for a while, so I was happy to see the Blu-ray available at my local library. I really enjoyed it, it was a great critique on the publishing industry and how the major ones treat African-American authors. I laughed so many times, good full belly laughs too.

Super Mario Bros (1993)

I managed to snag this on DVD at Barnes and Noble. It’s one of my favorites, even though I know it’s terrible. I recommended it to the gal at the register because it’s a great bad movie.
