Reading Reality has a very special guest today. It’s Ruthie Knox, the author of February’s marvelous contemporary romance Ride With Me and her utterly delicious new, just-in-time-to-celebrate-the-Jubilee, set-in-London About Last Night. Because so much of the fun of About Last Night (and it is scrumptious fun, see the review here) is in the heroine’s talks […]
Sadly, today marks the end of this year’s Blogo-Birthday Celebration. Weirdly, today is Easter Sunday, it’s the middle of Passover (which began on April 1st) AND it’s my birthday. So if you celebrate either Passover or Easter, I hope this is a good holiday for you! If you’re here for my birthday, or just for […]
Yesterday was Valentine’s Day, so it seemed like a good idea to include a lovely picture of one of our little loves. This is obviously Princess Luna of the little white feets, catching a nap in a sunbeam and looking cute and adorable. As she does. She’s certainly more ‘beautifully’ posed than last week’s snap […]
Reading-wise, it was a very good week. In the getting-things-done department, it was a bit less successful. I started out behind because of Monday’s post, which was not what I’d originally planned. We also had insulation installers in on Wednesday and the plumbers on Friday, so more disruption than I care to have. But it […]
It’s our second “Winter Wonderland” weekend in a row! This is not what we moved to Atlanta for at all. But it sure is pretty as long as one is on the inside while the blizzard is OUTSIDE. But it’s not completely outside as this picture of George certainly attests. The catio is fully screened […]
We’re supposed to be getting an ice storm today. So I’m probably huddled under a comforter with a good book and as many cats as I can get to cooperate. Not that cats are generally all that cooperative. OTOH, it could all blow over, or pass us by, or just not be, well, all that. […]
Unlike last week’s stack, there are some truly pretty covers this time around. Especially All the Tea in China, Daughters of the Sun and Moon, and Our Perfect Storm. There’s also some pretty creepy in Brimstone Hollow and The Museum of Unusual Occurrence. I definitely picked up You Had me at Bigfoot, while the books […]
This was a good reading week, even if a bit stressed out by the whole “having to move again” thing. C’est la vie. But we found a house! YAY! Whoopee! Now we just have to pack. And move. And unpack. C’est la vie all over again. This coming week’s schedule feels like a bit of […]
We’re moving. Again. Our landlord has decided to sell the house we’re living in, so we have to move. It’s been three years, and that makes this the longest we’ve lived in a dwelling since we moved in together back in 2001. We move a lot. But we weren’t quite ready to do so right […]
This week it looks like my cup runneth ridiculously over, doesn’t it? Tor sent me an eARC for the next book in L.E. Modesitt’s Recluce series, because I love his Imager Portfolio. The only problem is that I’ve never read the Recluce series. I just never got a round tuit. It’s time to rectify that, […]
