What the actual fuck just happened?
I spoil books for my husband quite often. I am the meme where I race in from the other room waving the book and raving to him about what just happened even though he had not the faintest clue what I am banging on about. (1/2)

This is my job.
I sit by @outofmytree looking gorgeous, keeping her away from the book she really wants to read until she has written the required amount.
This is my job and I do it well.

So, we are about 2/3rds of the way to our target word count so still a ways to go but we just crested over the hill of 100k and we are having a cup of tea and a chocolate hobnob to celebrate before getting back to it.

So.. I wasn't feeling well so went for a small nap. That turned into 5 hours and I have missed all the trick or treaters.
Husband is giggling with delight surrounded by chocolate and sugar!

The yearning! Oh, sweet and fluffy lord! I read Oro first and had flipped to being on his team and then I read Grim and was stuck again.
Alex Aster is just making this choice as painful as possible and I am here for it!
(Also, the artwork by Kalisami is some of the most beautiful I have ever seen!)

Okay, if you are comfortable and are having your armpits scritched, it is not unreasonable to grab hold of the said scritching hand to keep it where it is instead of allowing it to continue tapping on a keyboard, right?
I mean, seriously, how dare she!

They woke me up.
They put me in a bag.
They took me to the vets (who were very nice and gave me treats).
There was a needle and I was told I was perfect.
Then they put me in a bag again, brought me home, and fed me.
I did some magnificent sad miaows.
I really am perfect.

75,247 is the current word count of our 1st draft, and it is flowing quite nicely.
I believe I deserve a little treat so it is book and coffee time.

I feel absolutely breathless. Tahereh Mafi is one of those writers that grabs you by the throat and just does not let go.
I could wax lyrical about her gorgeous rich prose and fascinating characters but I just want to read more of her work!
Patiently waiting for the next installment.

Toby has a vet visit (nothing serious, just his check up) in an hour and he had taken this opportunity to go out for a morning stroll. The last few days he has been asleep on the bathroom rug when I get up but today? No no no.
Hoping he appears and I don't have to reschedule again.

The Twilight 20th anniversary edition is in my hands and I am so happy.
I went to an anniversary event and was surrounded by people who just wanted to have fun. We made bracelets where I declared my eternal love for Jasper, and our team won the quiz.
Thank you to the Waterstones Preston team!

This story by Lauren Roberts has been on my shelf since its release and I am ashamed to say I have only just read it, but I am very glad that I have. Its gentility with the characters, that were treated sometimes so brutally in the Powerless trilogy, brought a warm glow to my heart.

This book is unbelievably good. The writing, the characters, the story, the ending! I yelled so loudly the cat shot off the couch!
If you enjoy passionate and traumatic characters with flaws and logical reasons for things then I implore you to read this as soon as humanly possible!
