This is a really interesting series. Our main character, Kaylin, is really just starting to learn about her power, and I feel like I’m pretty much right along for the ride with her, because there’s a lot in this book to unpack, to figure out what’s going on. There are immortal races, one of whom, […]

And so it begins… This is the front bed, continuing the red, yellow and blue theme. This was from earlier in the week, with all of the plants we bought last weekend. I also put a small divot in the mound of mulch, and made this bed look much better.
While we were out and about yesterday, we stopped at the nursery where BF had picked up the yellow dahlia that did so well in our front bed last year. We got another one (as well as a red dahlia), as well as some other yellow, red and blues for that bed. (And some marigolds
I enjoyed the end of this trilogy, though it did seem like the book went on forever – it felt much longer than the prior two books. We start with Nahri and Ali back in Cairo, Ali’s first time among humans. Because they have Sulieman’s ring with them, all magic back in the city of

The stump has been ground, and the city even came through and filled in the hole, and seeded it with grass. They did not seed in the area around the new tree that they had to dig out to plant it, which they did not completely mulch over, so their technique is a little inconsistent,
Here’s a cable baby hat to use up some more of the Sundara Sock Water Studies yarn. (Saving the very last for a hexipuff extravaganza when I get through my forthcoming hat knitting frenzy.) Trying the Slable hat again, this time with Quince and Co. Chickadee in the Belize colorway. I’ll be more careful this
The other garden task I was behind on was planting up the seedlings. I had bought another grow light last year, after two wasn’t enough for what I planted last winter. I’d tried to set it up when I first planted seedlings, but the zip ties I needed were no where to be found. Those
This was a really interesting book, something a little different. Larkyra is the youngest daughter of three – daughter of the one of the first families of Jabari, but also one of the Mousai – the sorceress daughters of the Thief King. Magic has been lost to their world, for the most part, which is

I really hate the covers of these books. Really, really hate them. But anyway. This is another solid entry in this series – I really like Nevada and Conner’s interactions, and it’s been interesting seeing more characters introduced that I already knew about since I accidently started this series midway through. I still think I
White Hot – Ilona Andrews Read More »
One of the very irritating things about Covid (I’m choosing to just be irritated) is that I had plans for those two lost weekends. Yard work plans had factored in heavily. There’s a large pile of mulch under a tarp right now we had delivered two days before I developed symptoms, that I feel like
