I have not but I just read a summary and that sounds great!
I wanna die in bed surrounded by fat grandchildren, but guess that's off the menu.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Because books.
Historical mysteries remain my best comfort food.

Amy I have read them! And now in looking them up see there's a new one coming out. I enjoyed them, though I tend to like that subgenre of fancy historic ladies solving crimes (see also: Lady Darby, Lady Emily, Lady Julia...)

It looks like it's only 99 cents for kindle today. So I grabbed it. I was reading a lot when quarantine happened, but I haven't been able to get into anything the last few weeks.

I have to admit that I stopped reading the Jodi Taylor books after a while because the interpersonal drama warped into abuse in a few ways, and I realized the writer was more interested in that than in the actual plot shenanigans. At any rate, I put them down after 3 or 4 and have not had any interest in going back...

Well, shoot, I'm not getting the 99 cent deal. Boo.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I got the Black Swan Lane book (when it was on sale), but haven't started it yet. I enjoyed the Lady Julia books up to a point, the Lady Darby ones less so. I HAVE started "Deathless Divide" - set in an AU America, antebellum with slavery but also zombies. The protagonist is a young woman sent off from her home plantation to a school to teach her to fight zombies so she can be sold as a protector for a white woman. I've barely started it, so I don't know quite where it's going ... but ZOMBIES.

Oh, Toddson, is that the sequel to Dread Nation by Justina Ireland? That was really creative and horrifying.

It is.
