Mom had to drive my SUV today so I could take the Bronco back (no problems) and from there we went to Primanti Brothers, started in 1933 which I love (it's the one famous for having slaw and fries on the sandwich, and man they're good fries)

From there we went to the casino. I lost. Mom won 200$. It was fun for an hour.

Came home, finished my syllabi (barely in time, due friday) fielded some nonsense at work (there's plenty of it)

Got excited because I can finally go out to watch the Persaid meteor shower. It's raining. Naturally.

What I Just Finished Reading:

Dark and Dangerous Journey - WWII mystery arc, really enjoyed this.

Pantomine - an LGBT (intersexed main character) fantasy, I like it thought it ended well, set up for book 2

The Black Hand Syndicate in Ohio, one of those over priced history books you use in local drug stores. Well researched, but not as interesting as you'd want it to be for 25$


Holy crap I need to get caught up on my book reviews


What I am Currently Reading:

The Wood - an urban fantasy so far so good

What Can't be Said - the latest Sebastian St. Cyr book (or is it last year's and I need to get this year?) too soon to say, but I love this series

The Secret of the Orange Blossom Cake - WHY did I ask for this arc? It's a magic realism romance. Was it the magic realism (Not nearly enough of it) or because it's set in Italy? It's too contemporary romance for me but it's not badly written but there are logic gaps and the main character is SO irritating.



What I Plan to Read Next:

I have so many arcs

What Cannot Be Said is 2024, so you still have one to go!

I'm glad you got good food and had a good time at the casino.

I recently read the book- "Lone Women" (by Victor Lavelle) and it made me think of you and some of the things you enjoy. I have no idea if it's a good recommendation, but, I don't know, it made me think you!
