Reviewettes
Shelf Life: Fantastic Stories Celebrating Bookstores, edited by Greg Ketter. Pretty good collection of short stories about bookstores. Seemed a little heavy on the horror (do not like), but I enjoyed the stories anyway.
Vera Wong’s Unsolicited Advice for Murderers by Jesse Q. Sutanto. Vera Wong grows on you until you’re suddenly, unexpectedly fully invested. Recommended.
Mayhem would like me to STOP pestering her.
Harry napping on the kitty hammock.
Polly sees BIRDS!
Oh, I love that time loop ficlet! Actually, I love all three ficlets! I didn’t see the twist on the war machines one coming, either.
That furniture is very disconcerting but some of it looks ridiculously comfortable.
The cozy kitchen/bedroom setup looks like something I would have loved as a single person. Like, in my college days it would have been ideal!
I really want to read Vera Wong. It sounds so good!
Hi to the cute kitties! Polly would like my windows. Lots of birds (and squirrels!) outside.
