Happy birthday, aurumcalendula!

Wednesday still has a spare bluesky invite code going

What I read

Finished The Disappearance of Lydia Harvey, really very good, and about what we can and can't know about people in the past. Okay, grim, and some of the people are rather nasty pimps, but there's also a woman who was trying to run a custodial home for girls/women taken up by the police on humane lines and believing they were damaged and in need of care rather than sinful criminal types.

Courtney Milan, The Marquess who Mustn't (Wedgeford Trials, #2) (2023).

On the go

Since when it has been all Nicola Griffith, Menewood (The Light of the World Trilogy #2) (2023) all of the time, I think I'm finally on the home-stretch. Just slightly querysome at the way they seem to be necking down pennyroyal at certain points in the narrative, and at one point there's a mention of safe times of the month which I really raise my eyebrows at.

Up next
