13 books tag game, tagged by @amemoryofwot
1) Last book I read:
Starter Villain by John Scalzi, in an effort to 1) get back on my Hugo nominee completionist bullshit and 2) give him a second go, since I was deeply unimpressed by the first one a few years ago. It was...you know the thing about how badly-written books can help you learn more about writing than well-written ones? That!
2) A book I recommend:
I am metaphorically grabbing everybody I know by the collar and telling them to read Some Desperate Glory, unless the subject matter isn't for them which is fair, but it's so good.
3) A book that I couldn’t put down:
I distinctly remember finishing Gideon the Ninth at like 11pm because I couldn't wait until morning, which must be seen in the context of me being asleep by 10pm every night of my life I get a choice in the matter.
4) A book I’ve read twice (or more)
I went through a solid decade of reading Hogfather every Christmas and I've probably got a few more left in me.
5) A book on my TBR
I've got Mary Beard's latest book, Emperor of Rome, on reserve at the library.
6) A book I’ve put down
Tried The Bone Shard Daughter by Andrea Stewart last year because it was blurbed well and I was in a fantasy mood, and got like...twenty pages in. It didn't leave enough of an impression for me to remember exactly why, just a general 'I don't care about these characters' vibe.
7) A book on my wish list
Kate Elliott is being very kind about progress updates in her newsletter and I want her to have the time she needs...but I am also chewing at the bit for Lady Chaos.
8) A favourite book from childhood
I was SO into Redwall as a kid. First fanfic I ever wrote.
9) A book you would give a friend
This is hard because I always want to rec specific books to specific people, I sincerely believe there's no generic book which is good for everybody. Um, maybe All Systems Red since Murderbot seems to resonate with a wide audience?
10) The most books you own by a single author
(Physical books only) An ACTUAL single author? Anne McCaffrey for sure. An alleged single author? I own 36 Trixie Belden Mysteries books.
11) A nonfiction book you own
Storm over Mono, which is a really interesting account of the fight to save Lake Mono in California, a scientifically interesting and historically and ecologically unique place.
12) what are you currently reading
Technically between books but I'm about to start The Imposition of Unnecessary Obstacles by Malka Older. I liked the first one fine but it didn't grab me grab me, so we'll see how it goes.
13) what are you planning on reading next?
My mostly-science book club is going retro and reading Surely You're Joking, Mr Feynman which I have been putting off because I have Heard Things about Richard Feynman...but also I gotta gird my loins and get onto it.
I have not been around Tumblr enough lately to think of who to tag but with 100% sincerity, if you see this and it starts the wheels turning in your head about books you've read lately and so on, you're it!

At the Dawn There is Rejoicing--a birthday gift for @kmomof4 (Epilogue)
Tumblr media
Summary:  Birthday gift for Krystal, @kmomof4. Based on the story of Leslie Moore and Owen Ford in the book Anne’s House of Dreams–the 5th book in the Anne of Green Gables series.  Emma Gold has led a difficult life.  Her brother and her father died when she was a child, and she was then coerced into marrying the odious Neal Gold.  She thought she’d been granted a reprieve when he was believed to be lost at sea–only for him to return disabled and in need of a caregiver.  Killian is a newspaper reporter who is tired of his routine life.  When he falls ill, his editor forces him to take a sabbatical.  What will happen when Emma takes Killian in as a border for the summer? Big thank you to @snowbellewells for making the cover pic set!
Word Count: 1176

Other Chapters: (Prologue) (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Epilogue
Neither Emma nor Killian wanted to wait any longer than necessary to be wed, and so a month after his proposal, in the garden of the little House of Dreams, they were married in the church in the harbor.  It was a small, intimate ceremony, only their closest friends present–the Nolans, of course, Granny and Marco (who had only a few days before tied the knot themselves), Captain Nemo, Gideon and Violet, Johanna, and Lance Du Lac.
Mary Margaret and Emma had spent many happy hours working together to make Emma’s wedding dress and veil.  It was a rather simple ensemble, but Mary Margaret thought she’d never seen a more radiant bride.
Emma knew she’d never forget the moment she began her walk down the aisle–on Captain Nemo’s arm.  She’d looked to the end of the aisle and seen Killian standing there, devastatingly handsome in is black tux, his eyes shining with love and happiness.
Butterflies, she thought as she walked.  She had butterflies thinking of spending the rest of her life with this man.
As the two of them said the vows that would bind them together forever, she didn’t feel the panicked, trapped feeling she had at her first wedding–as though her “I do” was a shackle around her wrist, and his was the locking of her prison door.  No, this time, their vows felt like she was given wings and was finally free to soar.
The kiss he’d given her when they were pronounced husband and wife was almost scandalous–how filled with desire and passion it was, right there in the church before God and everyone–but Emma couldn’t bring herself to care.  This was right, this was beautiful, this was as it was meant to be.
After the ceremony, they’d adjourned to the garden outside the House of Dreams for a small reception.  Johanna, who had returned a week before the wedding, and Mary Margaret had outdone themselves with refreshments and a lovely, three-tiered wedding cake.  The afternoon was spent with laughter and joy among their nearest and dearest.
“So, what are your plans, now that you’re married?” David asked.
“I’m selling my house,” Emma said. “There are too many memories there–and aside from the summer with Killian, all of them were dark and dismal.  That house holds too many ghosts.”
“You won’t move far, will you?” Mary Margaret asked quickly.
“Unfortunately we must,” Killian said.  “I’ve still got my job in Montreal.  We’ll take up residence there.”
“Oh what a shame!” Mary Margaret said, clearly crestfallen. “We’ll all miss you dreadfully!”
“Indeed we will,” Granny said with a decisive nod of her head.  “Now Emma, dearie, the two of you must visit often.  On that I absolutely insist.”
“Of course we will,” Killian promised.  “Every chance we get.  My summer on the island was the happiest of my life, and I know Emma will miss all of you.”
“Well, since we’re talking about changes,” David said after a moment.  “Mary Margaret and I have some news as well.  The old Morgan place up in the glen just went on the market–Ingleside, I think they’re calling it–and Mary Margaret and I have decided to buy it.”
“You’re leaving your House of Dreams?” Marco asked, eyebrows raised.  “But you always seemed to love this house so much!”
Mary Margaret sighed.  “We do.  This house has been dearer to me than anywhere I’ve ever lived, and it breaks my heart to leave, but David convinced me it’s the right decision.”
“Between the two of us, Johanna, and now baby Leo, we’re bursting at the seams,” David said.  “You know we’ve always wanted a large family, and when more little ones come along, well our House of Dreams will no longer suit our needs.  The price of Ingleside couldn’t be beat, and so we chose to act.”
“My biggest concern,” Mary Margaret said, “is that the House of Dreams will go to someone who won’t love it and care for it the way we did–or worse yet, that it will stand empty and simply decay.”
Emma and Killian looked at each other for a moment, and then Emma nodded, knowing what he was thinking without him needing to voice it–and completely agreeing with him.  
“We might have a way to allay that fear,” he said. “Emma and I have talked about wanting to summer here on the island–to make it a yearly thing.  What if we bought your House of Dreams for our summer home?”
The suggestion had been met with great enthusiasm by all present, and so they had yet another thing to celebrate on this gorgeous fall day.  
And celebrate they had, until the sun began its slow descent into the west.
Finally, when it was time for Emma and Killian to leave for their honeymoon trip, their friends saw them off with cheers and applause.
Killian had booked them a luxurious private berth on the train for the first leg of their trip, and as the countryside sped by, he and Emma sat together, his arm around her, her head on his shoulder, her hand covering his heart.
“Are you happy, love?” he asked softly.
She smiled, too overcome with emotion to speak.  Instead, she took his face in her hands and brought him down for a long, slow, leisurely kiss.
The verse from Psalm 30 came into her mind then: Weeping may endure for a night, but at the dawn there is rejoicing.
Her long, agonizing night was finally at an end, and the dawn had finally arrived.  Emma couldn’t wait to discover what this new day would bring.
The end!
Notes:
–Thank you all for reading and commenting! (And happy birthday to Krystal!)
–One other change I made from the actual book: In the book, Owen (Killian) brought Captain Jim (Nemo) a copy of his book on his return to the island, and the next morning Anne and Gilbert (the Nolans) found him with a smile on his face, and his book open to the last page.  He’d apparently passed away of old age just after finishing the book.  I, however,  had no intention of killing off Captain Nemo.
–That’s it for this story, but if you’re interested in what happens with the book characters moving forward:  (SPOILERS FOR ANYONE INTERESTED IN READING THE ANNE OF GREEN GABLES BOOKS) Anne and Gilbert move to Ingleside and have 5 more children (bringing their total to 3 girls and 3 boys).  Leslie (Emma) and Owen have two children–the first they name after Leslie’s deceased brother and the second after Persus Ford (Elsa in my story).  They come back to the House of Dreams to live every summer, and their family and Anne and Gilbert’s continue to be great friends.  Miss Cornelia (Granny) and Marshall Elliot (Marco) eventually adopt a little orphan girl who ran away from the orphanage.  Several years later, at the end of World War I, Leslie and Owen’s son comes home from the war and marries Anne and Gilbert’s youngest daughter.  And, of course, everyone lives happily ever after!

Ghosts, Alibis, and Apple Pies by Ann Marie Gideon
Michelle Bishop has spent most of her life hating her nemesis, Georgia Beauregard. When the town beauty queen herself suddenly dies, Michelle is the only one who isn't mourning. But Michelle has just discovered there is something far worse than a living, breathing bully. Try being haunted by a dead one. ~Bio of the book
Just from this, you can tell that this will focus on Michelle and Georgia. First person pov on Michelle. Georgia is supposed to be her nemesis but we aren't automatically taken to their past first. We are only told of it in this book and the next. In this book we learn (SPOILER ALERT) that Michelle was in a car crash with Georgia. We do not learn why in this book. We also learn that Michelle is in the hospital. Where is Georgia? Is she dead? If not, what happened? Turns out, Georgia is DEAD. Sadly she was killed on impact. It is considered a 'car accident'. Michelle doesn't remember why Georgia was driving the car with her (Michelle). Soon there's a murder (why do I always go after ghosts, cats, and murder mysteries?) and Toby (I forgot his last name), who we learn later that he is obsessed with Georgia, is dead. We met Toby earlier at a bakery. Michelle soon is forced to find out who murdered Toby and why a knife was in him. Oh yes, a knife was in him. Later we learn the knife was NOT the cause of death. It was considered poison, actually. No more spoilers though, we have to make sure you get a surprise!!
I won't send the link to the book in this review sadly but will do so after the series is over and am on the last book's review and then will send all book links.
Love, Mystical Enclave
P.S Would you like to learn about Mysteries of Max, a book series with over 90 books and more to come? Learn about these books soon whenever I start my rereading of the series! Yes, I read the whole 90 books, waiting for book 91 and 92 (September 7th, October 5th). Bye!

RULES:
All fictional women from a category will be randomized, and put into polls
Whoever gets 50 votes automatically proceeds into the next round. There won't be only one winner for each poll!
We will do one category at the time. We'll start with books.
We'll decide on a winner of each category, and then whoever had the most votes, will proceed into the Final 10.
I'll calculate how many votes each woman got, so that at the end of the voting, you can see how many other women also adored your favourite ones :)
This also means that once you vote, if there's someone else you also want to see in the finals, you can reblog and let your followers know who already has enough votes, and who needs more in order to proceed. I'll also sometimes reblog polls announcing that a certain character has made the cut, and now others need your attention. We're trying to see which ones are loved and adored enough to actually get a lot of votes, even with competition. The voting starts at the end of nominations!
(POLLS ARE COMING SHORTLY)

Novel Syllabus 2024
This coming year I think I'm going to be on here more often than I am on twitter or elsewhere, and as part of that, I'm going to start documenting the process of writing my novel more actively.
