Hello! I’ve been posting on Mastodon more and more lately, if you want to follow me there.
Just finished The Rose Code by Kate Quinn. Set in Bletchley Park, the novel follows three young women working through World War II—and as they try to catch a spy.
Loved it!
📚 I’ve really been into Ursula Vernon (as T. Kingfisher) lately, especially the books that take place in The World of the White Rat. Chronologically, it starts with Clockwork boys & The Wonder Engine, which I loved.
📚 I finished Keeper of Enchanted Rooms today. The mystery of an enchanted house + a power-hungry magician + a sprinkle of romance = ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆
I haven’t talked about books here in a while; gonna try to remember to do that more. I read a lot and I’ve really been into what I think of as “cozy fantasy” in 2022.
My brain can’t handle high-stakes intergalactic battles when I’m this stressed.

I wrote a non-micro blog post! Maybe I’ll make this a habit.
Decided to give Glass a shot but it’s intimidating as a social media platform. Early adopters are all such great photographers, usually pros, whereas I’m like, “Here’s a thing I’m knitting. It’s mostly in focus and poorly staged.”
When @jean suggests cat photos are needed, you post cat photos.
Squeaky, age 1.75, is not past the (attempted) LEGO eating stage of his development.
This is what happens when I go to Elliott Bay Book Company with a full loyalty card and no adult supervision.
I’m re-reading The Golem and the Jinni in anticipation of its sequel’s release on June 8. I think this is my fourth time through and it’s just as magical now as it was the first time I read it.
My 2020 in a nutshell: * learned how to knit (thanks to @jean and others) * moved to a bigger apartment * dealt with debilitating chronic illness and chronic pain * adopted a third cat 🙈 * spent three months entirely alone
I wonder what 10-year-old me would have thought if she’d been told that, in the future, sometimes she’d have to stop reading because her book’s battery was dead.
