All Things Huge & Hideous by G. Scott Huggins
Star Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Humorous & cute stories of a vet to magical animals like dragons, basilisks, & hellhounds. High-brow literature this is not, but it’s still a lot of fun.

I’m currently reading Georgette Heyer’s Venetia. How has this not been made into a miniseries? With the popularity of romantasy and Bridgerton, Venetia seems ready-made for a film adaptation.

The Franklin Stove by Joyce E. Chaplin.

Worth reading despite a tendency towards editorializing. You see that resource scarcity and pollution have long been energy concerns, and you see that Benjamin Franklin did a lot to further atmospheric study.
