The Fiery Cross by Diana Gabaldon (2001) - rr

Least fav of the series behind BEES (too much Jocasta & River Run) but I still delight in these characters & the absurdity of Gabaldon’s writing. Like when Claire wanks Jamie back from the brink of death lol

Absolutely this. It is also a stumbling block in realizing you have been affected long term by COVID in general.

Some onsets are a mishmash of blow-offable as other things (“everyone’s tired lol”, “my ADHD is so bad lately” “why am I so lazy”) & frog-in-a-pot gradual 🙃

The Burnings by Naomi Kelsey (2024)

I wanted to love this but it felt like reading decent quality fanfic for a show I’ve never watched. My pet peeve in writing is when the author doesn’t trust the reader & I felt the author’s guiding hand throughout.

#HaecReads2025 #BookSky #Books
A stylized book cover with swirling orange and black flame-like patterns. In the center, large pale yellow text reads ‘The Burnings.’ Above it is smaller script text reading ‘The.’ Below, the author’s name appears in the same pale yellow font. A subtle red silhouette of a woman stands among the abstract flames. Portrait of author Naomi Kelsey. A woman with curly brown hair sits on the grass in a garden, smiling warmly at the camera. She wears a mustard-yellow dress, dark leggings, and a light gray cardigan. Behind her is a wooden fence with a trellis and pink and red tulips blooming along a raised flower bed.

Nobody’s Girl by Virginia Roberts Giuffre (2025)

What Epstein, Maxwell & other rich men did to Giuffre made me sick. The careful planning of not just the trafficking itself but also to protect themselves disgusted me. These people have endless resources. EAT THE RICH

Book cover with a soft, faded photograph of a young woman in the background. Overlaid text reads: “NOBODY’S GIRL — A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice — Virginia Roberts Giuffre.” The design uses pale, blurred tones that create a somber, reflective mood. Portrait of author Virginia Roberts Giuffre. A woman in a white blouse sits at a table, looking directly at the camera with a serious expression. She holds up a printed photograph of a younger woman posing with a small bird perched on her hand. Green leafy plants are blurred in the background.

This, like Bill C-5, is a stunning moment in our political history. This isn’t just a mask slip, it’s a quiet announcement of the path forward.

We’re 2 steps behind the US.

BBC NEWS article header Hijack 'suspect' alive in Morocco By David Bamford in Rabat A Saudi-Arabian aircraft pilot who was named as one of five suspects on board one of the planes that crashed into the World Trade Centre, has turned up alive and well in Morocco. The man, Waleed Al-Shehri, has told Saudi journalists in Casablanca that he had nothing to do with the attacks on New York and Washington, and had been in Morocco at the Confusion But, he says, he left the United States in September last year, and became a pilot with Saudi Arabian Airlines, and is currently on a further training course in Morocco. He says he was in Marrekesh when the attack took place. Mr Al-Shehri's case is not the first in which there has been apparent confusion as to the identities of the hijackers who commandeered the four planes on 11 September. Mr Al-Shehri said he has now been interviews by the American authorities, who apologised for the misunderstanding.
