Where the Drowned Girls Go – Seanan McGuire

At Home, Reading / Megan

This latest installment of the Wayward Children novellas take a slightly darker (which is saying something) turn. Cora was taken in by the Drowned Gods of the Moors when she and her friends were last there, and is afraid that it’ll mean she can never go back to her own world of the Trenches. So

Our Crazy Spring

At Home, Gardening, Maine, New England / Megan

I feel like I’ve barely posted anything in the wildflower department this spring, and there are a couple reasons for that. Our trips to Paris and Montreal took place over a couple prime wildflower weekends. No surprise really, of course some of the nicest weekends to be away are going to be nice at home

The Widow Queen – Elzbieta Cherezinska

At Home, Reading / Megan

I started this book back on September 15th. It’s in translation from Polish, and I’d be curious to see if it’s as dense in that language as in English. I had to take long pauses between readings. Honestly, I usually dump a book by now with pauses this long in between, but I really did

The Found and the Lost – Ursula K. LeGuin

At Home, Reading / Megan

This is a collection of novellas, so I’ve read some before (Earthsea), but some were new to me. It’s LeGuin, so they’re all good. I think with anything of hers, it’s a matter of what I’m in the mood to have stick with me. This time it was “Paradises Lost”, which is set on a
