Woof. So, you may have noticed that I’ve been a bit MIA recently and that’s because I got some shitty news and I didn’t want to share until I had more information because I know you guys worry as much as I do, and also because I didn’t want to tell Hailey until they were done with finals and back home. This is a longish story but I’ll try to make it shorter.

This month’s new book releases held a few of my absolute favorites for the year, which made it quite hard to winnow them down to just two for my book club picks. A good problem to have though. This month we’re sending Fantastic Strangelings When the Tides Held the Moon by Venessa Vida Kelley. It’s a fascinating historical fiction/fantasy about mermaids, sideshows, queer love, race, power, found families and more. And it is gorgeously illustrated inside and out. Big swoon.

We’re moving to a smaller place and so I’ve been selling some things on Facebook marketplace, and I started with just normal descriptions but then I got bored and everything I’m posting now is ridiculous but I figure if I’m going to write ad copy it’s going to be entertaining, even if it’s just to me.

Yesterday I was at the hospital getting an endoscopy and biopsies for yet another terrible autoimmune thing that I don’t even remember the name of because my body has decided I have to have all of them and after I got into a bed the nurse told me to think of a song to play during the procedure because the doctor now lets you pick what plays while you go under anesthesia, and I’m 99% sure this is because of my husband turning into a werewolf.
