By the skin of my teeth I finished my
spook_me story
Title: What the Hex Going On
Summary: When Edrisa came to Malcolm with a Killabusta case that might be ghostly in nature, he nearly declined. However, with no case on the horizon, he agreed. After all what could possibly happen if he and Edrisa spent a few days together in a house in the Hudson Valley? He really should have known better.

THis is also my
fandomtrumpshate story as well. I'm thrilled.
Let's do the book meme as my day was tedious and no one wants to hear it (But I cleaned the back table in my office during a meeting and threw out tea that was in unopened boxes 'best used by 2013' what the actual fuck Dana?? However I made myself green cardamon/fennel/rose petal hot chocolate cause I'm feeling fancy
What I Just Finished Reading:
So This Is Ever After by F.T. Lukens it's cute but relies on making the love interests total dumb asses in order to work. eye roll. I wanted to kick Matt in the ass so hard.
Poe: Stories and Poems: A Graphic Novel Adaptation by Edgar Allan Poe & Gareth Hinds It was a neat way to consume some Poe stories including a few rare ones like The Masque of Red Death (apropos for Covid) and one of my favorite poems of his Annabell Lee
The Scare School by R.L. Stine honestly this graphic novel was half baked and rather lame.
What I am Currently Reading:
Wildwood by Colin Meloy (I had this in the wrong place last week. OMG why so long?!?)
A Haunted History of Invisible Women: True Stories of America's Ghosts by Leanna Renee Hieber & Andrea Janes which is very much a feminist history exploration of ghosts and stories of haunting via that feminist lens
Murder at Beacon Rock - for a book set in Rhode Island. It's like book 10 in a series I've never heard of but set in Newport with her being distantly related to the richie riches there.
What I Plan to Read Next: Lady of Bones by Carolyn Haines turned out to be set on vacation instead of Mississippi so I gave that back. I have a John Sandford waiting for my book set in Minnesota challenge so maybe that or some more of the graphic novels I grabbed (we can only get points on our reading challenge if we take out 3 books at a time but they're counting graphic novels/manga so that's what I'm doing because I can't read like 20 books in 6 weeks.
