Tasha

I love your Hades 2 ladies. And the colors you use. I hope tomorrow is a better brain day.

Just ordered! I can’t wait to read it.

Ooof that is the worst. I hope you’re feeling better soon!

My pug does the same thing. I love watching his little toes and claws flex to ensure I can’t move my hand away. He swore an oath to care for his people!

Whew, what a book! I’ll be thinking about it for a long time.

I love seeing characters I “know” in other books, @blacktopkid.bsky.social . I’m finishing up King of Ashes today for book club and hoping for the best for the Carruthers family.

Oof I hope that it works out and you’re feeling better.

So pretty! I hope you get to have a snow day at home.

Good evening, Womble! It’s a cold rainy day here. I’m reading King of Ashes by SA Cosby and listening to Belladonna by Adalyn Grace. I’m enjoying both of them, but I need to finish King of Ashes for book club this week.

I started losing the plot in 1200 but 1100 was unintelligible.

Yum! I just finished the last of my Bard’s Banter yesterday.

I love pugachu! Especially the one looking over the shoulder.

This does not seem safe

a man in a suit and tie is making a funny face while sitting at a table with his eyes closed . Alt: Michael Scott from the office in a suit and tie is rubbing his face probably indicating a headache.

I….what???

I have a soft spot for all the pugs for some reason. 😉

I used to love the spinning racks of paperbacks at the library when I was a kid. I found so many cool Star Trek books and other sci fi/fantasy works on those spinners.

Oh no. I’m so sorry to N and you and Buffy. Fuck cancer.

I love them!!!!

I hope you figure it out and feel better.

So sweet! I hope they have a wonderful birthday.

Good afternoon, Womble! I just finished the audiobook of Clap When You Land by Elizabeth Acevedo. It may take me a while to recover from all the emotions. Such a good book. When I collect myself, I have to get back to Semi-Well-Adjusted by Alyson Stoner and Son of the Morning by Akwaeke Emezi.

Oh nooooooo. Give me all the plantains every which way.

I got to spend the day with Rosebud. We went to our first reptile expo. There were so many beautiful animals. Then we had lunch and chatted. Now I’m home snuggling with Baz the wonder pug.

Happy birthday! I hope you have a wonderful day!

A white hand holds an off-white mug with a hand drawn pug full of coffee with foam on top and lavender sugar sprinkles. A fawn pug in a tan donut shaped bed is in the background slightly out of focus.

A fawn pug is lying in his back in a tan donut shaped bed. He is upside down in the picture and stares at the camera requesting belly rubs.

This week (month/year/decade) has been a lot. But at least I get to have a lavender latte in a pug mug with Baz the sweetest pug.

Poor Hound! Could Hound do the inflatable cloud neck pillow of shame? That’s what we used for our pug when he had surgery.

I love your books. I just started King of Ashes, and it immediately pulled me in. Thank you for writing.

"Moderna's CEO announced the company will no longer invest in new Phase 3 vaccine trials for infectious diseases: 'You cannot make a return on investment if you don't have access to the U.S. market.

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

Pocket is perfection!!!!
