Posting one more time because, well because we're really excited about it frankly.
Our sister imprint, the Datura crime list, have some very exiting news. We're not at all sure about this RJ Dark fella though - looks a bit shady to us. Cool cover though...
But if you do want to take a chance and pre-order their books, here's the link:

So I'm watching the live action How to Train Your Dragon movie and wondering whatever was the point in making this? Apart from spending a shitload of money, I mean. It doesn't seem to add anything to the original animation.

Took me a while, but are my reading goals for 2026, including reading challenges and a shortened TBR list I'd like to focus on this year.

This chapter I'm currently working on was supposed to be about sibling bonding.
Me: The fuck do I know about that? *side eyeing my failed sibling relationships*
Also me: Let's make it into a family outing, including an almost 1-year-old toddler. Because I know so much more about kids...🤦🏻

"He captures well the characters, their inner and outer conflicts, and doesn't shy away from a gut punch or two when needed."
