Finally listened to Firewatch. I don’t think I am emotionally equipped to go right into Doomsday Book like I planned.
If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

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."

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
There are a couple dozen mass market Doctor Who novels at the bookstore today that I’m having a hard time convincing myself I don’t need to buy. They’re in near perfect condition.

If you are looking for something...kind of ambitious(and have some time, because it's long), you could do worse than "Mount Chicago."

I have downloaded a sample of that to check out, sounds interesting
I had been putting off reading the last two (last as in most recent, not last as in there won't be any more) InCryptid novels because they are Alice-centric and Alice is not my favorite. I was kind of grumbling to myself all the way through that there was too much Prices and not enough cryptids in these. However, the last one also has a bonus story that is partly from the POV of an Aeslin Mouse and the Aeslin Mice *are* my favorite, so it's all worthwhile and thought I'd better say so here in case anyone else might need that story. Bonus Novella: Where His Waffles Went in Backpacking Through Bedlam

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I'm 4 books behind on the InCryptid novels. I missed both Sarah novels and both Alice novels. But they're on the TBR list.

Ooh I am at least one if not two InCryptid behind, good reminder.

Sweet. That’s my current listen-while-driving book, being able to switch to an e-book will come in handy.

I am loving the concept of “Dracula season”
Also, when I first heard that they were going to print a physical book of Dracula Daily I thought that was a silly idea but here I am pre-ordering it. But it’s sparking joy, so there you go.
