I’m sorry. Did she end that rant with “God bless you?” WOW.

Recently finished Project Hail Mary, and The Fold. Next up is The Martian. Also need to read the latest Rivers of London book.

I used to have a coworker that dressed like this. Always a perfectly matching suit, shirt, tie, pocket square, socks and shoes combo. He had suits in every color imaginable. Always made me happy.

I love the one where Gus and Lassie tap dance.

George Guidall is my all time favorite. Ralph Cosham had a wonderful voice and I really miss him as a narrator. I also love Nathaniel Parker’s voice and listen to books I otherwise wouldn’t just to hear him.

Don’t normally do much sci fi/fantasy but I’m trying to branch out of my mystery genre.

I just finished The Fold. I’m not sure if I liked it or not. It started strong and then just went off the rails a bit. I don’t really like long drawn out fight sequences in books, movies , etc. and then it just ended without much resolution. Maybe the ending was to setup more books?

Post hoc ergo propter hoc.

That’s it. That’s all I know. Thank you The West Wing.

Sunny and 90 degrees. Floated around in the pool with some cocktails. Perfect day.

 

As a 50+ year old woman with little to no interest in Science Fiction, I would always just roll my eyes when I would come across yet another Reddit post about this book. And then, I broke down and got the audiobook since it was on sale. And, wow, I was soooo wrong. I really enjoyed it and my eyes were “leaking” so much at the ending.
So I thought I would become one of those people and say if you haven’t listened yet, then you REALLY should. The narrator was outstanding and I think that helped me get through some of the more “technical” parts that might have stopped me if I was “reading” and not “listening”.
