“To his tally kept on a piece of paper in his crew quarters, Roman will add the eighty-eighth line. Not to wish the time away but to try to tether it to something countable. Otherwise - otherwise the centre drifts. Space shreds time to pieces.”

Current Audio listen almost done

Almost done with my reread before starting Iron Flame 🔥

Yes i had to get the new gorgeous Chiltern edition…and give it an immediate reread as its one of my favorites

Re-reading the Shibuya Arc before the new season comes out 🤩🤩🤩

It’s finally out in English! When I saw how long it was going to take (over a year) I went ahead and ordered the french version, and discovered while I can read a good deal of french verbs im severely lacking in the nouns department lol - so giving it a proper read this time in English 👍🏼

Listening to the audio to remind myself of everything in prep for the new series

Current Audio listen - I remember really liking the premise of this one and it was back in the early days when he still did a lot of research on his books & they weren’t yet being ghostwritten.

Because no Gothic would be complete without THE HOUSE: “A strange emotion threads around me like the vines woven across the shutters. There’s something so sad about this poor, solemn house. With its windows like closed-over eyes and a ring of cold iron at the door. It’s like something kept under a spell, too long asleep.”

“The trees have to be tied down by sunset. When the Woodsmen come, they always try to run.” Another great first line of a book

Okay I had no idea Novik could be so wonderfully snarky - her wit & sarcasm etc is so on point - I think I’ve laughed/snickered at least 20 times already 😝

Okay 3 single star ratings (including one rant about how horrible the content is) - is just begging me to read it!!! There is no bigger carrot for me than Cray Cray that scares off the masses 😉

I’m REALLY in the mood for a hot mess right now, something bursting with all kinds of WTFery and I’m thinking this might just fit the bill 😜

This is actually really well written...I think I’m going to have another winner here 😜

It’s a good one (in Zebra Gothic pantheon)!

Forget the heroes and heroines - im a sucker for strange animals with weird names...this time its a wolf of thorns named Burnthistle. (Recent favs: Bumpersnoot the mechanimal dog in Gail Carrigers “Finishing School” series and the appropriately named “Doomslug” in Brandon Sanderson’s Skyward.

Can’t believe im still only a 2/3 through..this is definitely very long - especially for what is essentially Urban Fantasy - but so far I keep on a turnin’ the pages....
