Reading Update
Dragon Justice (Paranormal Scene Investigations #4) by Laura Anne Gilman. Good continuation of this series about a paranormal investigation agency. If you read it, brace yourself. Not everyone on the team makes it to the end.
Volatile Bonds (Prospero’s War #4) by Jaye Wells. Another good addition to this series about a police detective attached to a Federal unit focusing on crime in the city’s supernatural community.
Staying Dead and Curse the Dark (Retrievers 1-2) by Laura Anne Gilman. Good sort of detectivey series about Wren, whose magic leaves her unnoticed by most people, and her partner Sergei, who isn’t magical at all.
“FeedmeFeedmeFeedmeFeedmeFeedmeFeedme!” -Chaos
Have I mentioned before how glad I am that he never grew into his ears (or paws)?!
Chris- Love the sidewalk.
And Chaos is looking very sphinx-like.
A recent post from Lorraine..Is There an Igloo for Rent?
The tenrec is weird and awesome.
I died of starvation…oh well
huh. why would a tenrec have 29 teats? And not 30. or 28. How does 29 work with bilateral symmetry?
I don’t know about the bilateral symmetry side of things, I just think a pet with 29 teats might keep Trump too busy to screw up the world. But it would be a horrible fate for the tenrec.
LOVE Chaos. I hope he got his food.
I would have gotten lost on the Oregon Trail, and never found. LOL. I used to love that game. (I wasn’t very good at it, but I think that was the point.)
Interesting fanfic ending of the Harry Potter story. I wasn’t ever really satisfied with the original, but never bothered to think about better ways to do it.
