Yesterday I was looking at buying a new guitar from Musicians Friend. I added it to my cart but didn’t complete the purchase.

Finished my re-read of Fourth Wing. I loved it even more the second time! I caught some details that I didn’t notice the first go around. Great book!

Finished my eARC of WHEN THE MOON HITS YOUR EYE by @scalzi.com It’s a great soft sci-fi book combining a fantastic premise with loads of humanity. At times it’s funny, poignant, and thrilling. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I know books usually come out on Tuesdays, but I think when there’s a phenomenon-level series that inspires things like midnight releases…maybe publishers could make an exception and put it out on a Saturday??? 😂

I’ve also started listening to WITCHCRAFT FOR WAYWARD GIRLS by Grady Hendrix. So far it is reminding me of SUCH A PRETTY SMILE by Kristi DeMeester in its subtle simmering horror, a brew of violence and oppression based in gender, age, and familial structure. Still featuring Hendrix humor and voice.

I finished THE HERO OF AGES and Mistborn Era 1. I really enjoyed it. Full of surprises and a great ending. I really loved the character development throughout the series. Vin, Elend, Sazed, Spook, etc. all grew in such interesting ways. Sanderson proved an accomplished world builder too.

Very excited for Grady Hendrix’s new release tomorrow. @gradyhendrix.bsky.social might be my favorite horror author! I can’t wait to listen to the audiobook and see him on tour later this week.

Only 2.5 hours left of THE HERO OF AGES (at 1.5x). Amazing series, I can’t wait to hear how he wraps it up.

Just ordered signed copies of the new editions of Old Man’s War and The Ghost Brigade by @scalzi.com from Jay and Mary’s Bookcenter. I’m excited for these new editions of one of my favorite sci-fi series, and even more excited for the forthcoming seventh book!
