I really liked Michaels/Peters but I too got tired of the Ramses show after a bit. But I appreciated that her female characters always had a lot of agency and strong opinions. And a sex drive!
Well, then, this is a day I'll feel good to be me.

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."

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I remember when Shattered Silk came out, I was shopping with my mother's ... boyfriend? over-60 male friend ... who wanted advice on a present for my sister. I recommended Shattered Silk and he was doubtful, but went along. Christmas morning, she opened it ... by dinner time she was more than halfway through and he told me that it was a good choice.
And I'm sorry about the lack of occult bunnies. I don't think she does non-human ghosts/spirits.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I loved Shattered Silk. It came out when I was restoring antique women's whites and baby clothes--like it was written for *me*!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
This is such a microscopically small concern in the grand scheme of things, but I am really looking forward to being able to read Red, White, and Royal Blue again without sobbing in despair for the last 50 pages.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
Yeah, I recommended that to a friend a few days ago and then had to stop and say, "Maybe not right now."

In the end it's only ever been one step, and then the next.
I have not read that; should I?

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
It's fun. It has a very fanfic vibe.

It's wonderful! But it ends with a fictional 2020 election and when I picked it up to reread early this summer I realized I just couldn't.

Now tagless for your comfort.

YESSSSSSS! Although Casey McQuiston has a new, queer SF book out that I am looking forward to reading, too.
I just finished video book talks for the library for the Murderbot series and for The Montague Siblings trilogy. Can't wait for those to post. I'm trying to decide which titles to do next.

I got my Murderbot books back from my 13 year old yesterday - decided I needed to refresh my memory on the whole series before I dove into #5.
