Hi

I need some book recommendations

I want to get back into reading but I’m finding it hard since my dyspraxia and ADD diagnoses

I want to read more fiction as I usually read non fiction

So first, I read a lot of thriller books. Adventure thriller, murder thriller, legal thriller. I'm not really into women's fiction as much as I used to be, but I do read them from time to time. (I hope some people will jump in the comments with recommendations for that genre since I'm not very current.) I do like a good historical fiction or a dystopian/alternative reality book.

I'll do series first, in case that's your speed, and then individual recommendations.

Series/Authors

Dan Brown, Lee Child, James Patterson - I'm specifically suggesting these because they have short chapters. A friend of mine with ADHD (which I know is different from ADD) swears by authors with short chapters or short stories because it's easier to find a natural stopping point when her ADHD acts up and she can't stay focused. (I also like them too; Dan Brown more than the others. Digital Fortress and Deception Point are my favorites; the Robert Langston series is ok but I've never picked up those books again. I reread Digital Fortress and Deception Point almost every year.)

Marcia Clark has two series, one about a prosecutor and one about a defense attorney. Both are enjoyable, and one of them (I can't remember the title but it's part of the prosecutor series) is essentially a retelling of the OJ case. (Marcia is one of the prosecutors from the OJ trial.)

Stacey Abrams is a compelling legal fiction writer (she doesn't get into politics in her fiction books) and I like her Avery Keene series (I can't vouch for the books she wrote under her pen name).

Meg Cabot for more lighthearted reads. She has two series that are my go-tos whenever I need something light and quick.

Heather Wells. Heather is a former pop star (think Britney) who is a dorm advisor in NYC and her landlord is a private investigator that she has the hots for...who also happens to be the older brother of her ex-boyfriend, who is also a pop star. It's rom com + mystery.

The Boy series - these are epistolary novels, where everything is happening in emails, text messages, voicemails, newspaper articles.

Recently I've been reading Alex Michaelides and Eric La Salle. Both are thrillers/adventure-type books. I will warn you now; Eric's series deals with the Catholic Church abuse scandal, which I know is touchy for a lot of people for many different reasons. (Though that said, there is a twist in Eric's Laws of Depravity that I did not see coming at all, and usually I can suss these out.)

Always a good read is the Maggie Hope series, by Susan Elia MacNeal. She's a WW2 spy and gets into shenanigans. There are some dark parts of the series but overall, it's fun.

Individual Books

Thirteen by Steve Cavanaugh blew my mind. A serial killer sits on a jury, and that's all I'm going to tell you.

Gameboard of the Gods by Richelle Mead. I've recommended it a few times here on tumblr. It's about a utopian society that regulates religion. It's part of an incomplete trilogy (the publisher cancelled the series for poor sales). The first book (this one) is better than the second.

Murdle. It's like Wordle or Quordle but with mysteries. It's a puzzle book but each puzzle is like a short story.

The Rose Code by Kate Quinn. WW2 spy novel that takes place at Bletchley Park. Kate's grandmother makes an appearance. :)

Several People are Typing by Calvin Kasulke. An epistolary novel that takes place over IM/DM. It's a little weird but a bit silly. A very light and easy read.

The Paradox Hotel by Rob Hart. Part sci-fi, part crime thriller. The Paradox Hotel sits at the "end of earth" next to a port for time travel. January is an employee at the hotel who must make sure that the time travellers don't bring anything back they're not supposed to. It's like The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel + the Loki series + Doctor Who.

The Company of the Dead by David Kowalsky. Time travelers save the Titanic and the ripple effect through history. It's some heady shit, but it's a really interesting theory about what today would be like if the Titanic (and its shipload of rich people - that's important to remember) never sank.

If anyone else wants to add to these book recommendations, please do! Submit in the comments or asks. I'll use the tag #reading list for all of these.

HAZBIN HOTEL: ADRIAN'S REFERENCE

All art is done by @beazzlebug but Adrian himself belongs to me!

HUMAN

Full name: Adrian Mulligan

Lifespan: 1914-1947

Age at death: 33

COD: Murder (bullet wound in the chest)

Personality: Adrian has a happy-go-lucky attitude while he's alive. An optimist with a snarky reply on the tip of his tongue. His sense of humour can be dry and at times brash. Definitely has an interesting choice of insults for anyone. He's very charismatic and will definitely try to charm you out of your life's savings. He's excitable and always looking for something new to try whether it be good or bad. He's very ✨ fruity ✨. He admittedly lost his childlike spark in the year leading up to his death.

Life in a nutshell: Born in Dublin, 1914. He grew up in Ireland until 1925 and his family moved to NYC in search of the American Dream. He was 11 at the time. Adrian quickly realised that he wasn't exactly America's...type (historically accurate!). That's when he figured out that he's on his own here. To make ends meet, he began getting involved in crime. Nothing too extreme at first. Petty theft and pickpocketing here and there. Whatever meant money. He met Angel Dust (then Anthony) when he tried to pickpocket him when they were both teenagers. Luckily for Adrian, Anthony found it hilarious and maybe adorable. The two started meeting behind the backs of Anthony's family for a while until Adrian was finally introduced. That's how Adrian got involved in the mafia in 1930 when he was just 16 years old. He became quite a mysterious but notorious con artist. He started doing bigger scams than just pickpocketing. The scams that got him real money...and enemies. When Anthony died at the beginning of 1947, it hit Adrian like a truck. He crumbled. He was thrown off his game by the grief and that was dangerous for someone in Adrian's line of work. Later that same year, he was coming back from visiting Anthony's grave for the millionth time and had to cut through alleys. What he didn't know was that some people weren't too happy with losing their money...which cost Adrian his life that night.

DEMON

NAME: ADRIAN (THE SHADOW DEMON)

He's a fox demon!

In a way, he's grateful he died so soon because he doubts he could've lived the rest of his life without his best friend. On the other hand, he hates his demon appearance. He knows full well that it's the universe's way of saying "fuck you" since Adrian was hunted, shot and left to die - like a fox hunted for sport. He died in the most dehumanising way he could imagine and now he has to spend eternity in Hell as the exact thing he felt like when he died.

Then he had a thought.

He spent his life feeling like scum to society and not just because of his profession. Why should his afterlife be the same? That was the start of his descent into blind ambition and greed. Some demons have some sort of power after their fall to Hell. Adrian was one of them. Fortune telling and the ability to manipulate shadows in the palm of his hand. That's not enough. He needs purpose. He needs to feel worthy of something, anything. Cue his meeting with the Radio Demon. Alastor saw Adrian's potential. Desperation mixed with unchecked ambition and a need for validation...but also a silver-tongued, charismatic, rather sarcastic fox. A contract just waiting to be signed. Alastor approached Adrian with his proposal: Alastor's guidance and protection in return for Adrian's soul. Needless to say, Adrian gladly seized the opportunity. Under Alastor's wing, Adrian soon began collecting souls for himself in return for his abilities of fortune telling using demonic tarot cards. Who wouldn't want to know their fate in the cesspit of despair that is Hell? His powers along with his mysterious aura earned him the title of "The Shadow Demon".

However, a contract with Alastor is never as good as it seems. When the Hazbin Hotel opened and Alastor volunteered to help run it "out of sheer absolute boredom", Adrian found himself summoned to work there. Work there as a butler of all things. Who knows? Perhaps Adrian will grow to like the hotel.

Thanks for reading! Adrian is something I've been working on for a while now and I'm pretty proud of him since he no longer lives entirely in my head! As always, feel free to raid my inbox with any questions about anything about him and I'll try my best to answer! 😁

Also Adrian does have a full demon form but I have no idea what it is yet so I've let beazzlebug get creative!

New York City is the most iconic and most visited city in the United States. With its distinctive skyline, diverse neighborhoods, world-class museums, incredible Broadway productions, and melting pot of cultures, NYC attracts millions of visitors each year. (It’s also the place I call home.) New York City is huge. I mean, ten million people live here. Where do you stay when you’re here? There are so many hotels to choose from. To help you plan your visit and narrow down your options, here’s my list of the best hotels in NYC: 1. East Village Hotel Located in the East Village, my absolute favorite neighborhood in NYC, this boutique aparthotel is run more like an Airbnb than a traditional hotel. You get sent a code before arrival to check in, and there’s no staff or restaurant on site (though an outpost of The Bean, a popular NYC café, is right downstairs). The studio apartments are designed to reflect the neighborhood’s bohemian spirit, with contemporary artistic décor, beautiful exposed brick walls, and lots of natural light. The kitchenettes include a stovetop, refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, and silverware. Rooms include comfy pillowtop beds, showers with good water pressure, a flatscreen TV, and complimentary bath products. Everything is pretty compact, but in an area with few hotels, this is one of the best-value spots. Stay here if you want to be in a central location with tons of great restaurants and bars at your fingertips.   2. The Marlton Originally built in 1900, this historic boutique hotel in Greenwich Village has been home to many of the area’s bohemian set, including one of my favorite writers, Jack Kerouac (he even penned a few novellas here). I like that the hotel’s extensive renovations still kept its classic aesthetic. The beautiful interior has a stately feel, with ornate moldings, herringbone parquet floors, and vintage furnishings like brass light fixtures, ornate rugs, and custom-made furniture. The staff are super friendly too. The rooms are pretty small, but well designed to make use of the space. They come with flat-screen TVs, comfy beds with plush bedding, wardrobes, minibars, and marble bathrooms. The Marlton is also home to an excellent bar that serves incredible cocktails, and there’s a complimentary breakfast available too. I think it’s the best value for your money in the area.   3. Vocabulary: The Franklin This three-star hotel is in a 19th-century brownstone in the Upper East Side, the neighborhood I live in (if you see me, say hi!). The rooms here are simple, but the hotel has some great perks, like a free 24-hour espresso bar and a standard late checkout time of 12 p.m. The restaurant is currently being renovated, so there’s no breakfast available on-site, but there are tons of places just steps away. The rooms are decorated in a minimal (but cozy) style, with white-painted chandeliers and cute original art. All rooms come with large TVs and comfy pillow-top mattresses, while their larger rooms come with a desk and easy chair. Everything is newly renovated, and the glass-enclosed showers have excellent pressure. The location is great too, as it’s on a quiet, leafy street close to Central Park and Museum Mile.   4. Hotel Indigo This four-star hotel is dedicated to supporting local street art and artists, and you’ll see plenty of their work throughout the building. The rooftop bar, Mr. Purple, is a favorite among locals for fancy cocktails, and on the weekends, the area turns into an upscale club. (Because of that, it’s a 21+ hotel.). There’s even a heated pool on the rooftop too. The rooms boast hardwood floors, bold artwork, and floor-to-ceiling windows with impressive views over the city. All rooms also include Keurig machines, desks, and a minibar (for which you get a $20 USD credit). The bathrooms are large, beautifully tiled, and feature rainfall shower heads. While there’s no breakfast served on site, you’re just steps away from tons of great eateries open at all hours. Overall,

I think this hotel is the best place to stay if you want to experience NYC’s legendary nightlife.   5. The Standard The Standard is one of the best hotels in the city (I think this East Side location is even better than the one in the Meatpacking district). The bar serves some of the best drinks in town and is usually always packed with NY’s fashionable set. There’s a café where you can get breakfast in the mornings too. The recently renovated rooms are gorgeous, decorated in a minimal design with bright pops of color and lots of natural light thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows. They’re pretty big too, especially by NYC standards. All rooms at this four-star hotel feature plush beds, fluffy down pillows, huge flatscreen TVs, Bluetooth speakers, cozy bathrobes, work desks, and stocked minibars. The bathrooms are spacious, with tiled walk-in showers and organic designer toiletries. You’ll also get complimentary access to the nearby Crunch gym (in case you want to work off all the delicious food from the plethora of nearby restaurants).   6. The Library Hotel Everything at this four-star hotel is book-related. Each of the ten floors has a different theme, and all of the 60 rooms have dozens of books that fit within that theme (the hotel has a collection of over 6,000 books!). There’s also a Reading Room lounge with work desks, cozy nooks for reading or writing, and 24/7 coffee, tea, snacks, and drinks. Guest rooms are a good size (for NYC) and feature rich wood furnishings in a sleek, contemporary design, with plush bedding, minibars, flatscreen TVs, desks, and luxury bath products. There’s also free breakfast, a rooftop terrace with a bar that serves literary-themed drinks, and really helpful staff. It’s a quiet respite from an otherwise busy and loud neighborhood. Stay here for a unique experience that’s close to major tourist sites like Times Square, the Empire State Building, and Grand Central Station.   7. The Sherry-Netherland Located on Fifth Avenue, right across from Central Park, this ornate five-star hotel is housed in a stunning Beaux-Arts building. The lobby boasts vaulted, painted ceilings and custom-made chandeliers, and the elevator even has a white-gloved operator, just to highlight how upscale this property is. The property’s Italian restaurant serves breakfast in the mornings, and there’s a fitness center available too. The spacious rooms are elegantly decorated, with mahogany desks, tasteful art on the walls, and large marble bathrooms. All rooms include flatscreen TVs, luxury bath products, complimentary soda, mineral water, and chocolates, and daily newspaper delivery. This is the place to stay if you want to splash out on a classy and timeless NYC hotel experience.

4/22/24 I took off from the Cape on what Siri suggested would be a 7 hr drive. Around NYC there were accidents, slowdowns, and Siri lying about the best route. So much concrete! It took 14 hrs before I arrived at my aIr bnb. My hosts were generous and left the door open for my 1 AM arrival. Endurance proven but my tech relationship with Siri needs practice.

I made my way to Christiana, PA the next AM. I am in Amish country. Horse drawn buggies. Beautiful fields.

I made the Monday tour by the Christiana Historical Society. 10 Texan history women were there on the tour. The last photo was our guide. Her 3rd Great grandfather was one of the resisters.

The story was of the 1850 Fugitive Slave Act, requiring Northerners to assist Southern slaver owners trying to recover “their property” . My distant relative was overly aggressive and was shot dead. His son Dickenson was wounded but was cared for for 4 weeks by Quakers and converted. Edward’s youngest son was in boarding school with John Booth Luce who saw his friend’s grief. Lincoln’s death may have originated in this event.

30 black men were rounded up by federal authorities and imprisoned at the Zercher Hotel. The charge was treason. They hoped to hang the resisters. Thaddeus Stevens was a lawyer for the defendants and won their freedom.

This may have been a start in the civil War.

Reginald’s Winter Julep

Years ago when I worked at fancy hotels in Austin, Texas, I liked working the holidays. Folks would talk about holiday stress, but it never applied to me. I mean, working in hospitality is pretty stressful all the time. Making it the goal to relieve the stress of your guests and handling business, then looking forward to blowing off steam after work with your coworkers was a fun yearly ritual. If anything, I felt the stress (or sadness) after the holidays ended.

One of my favorite things to behold was the selling of Stingers to guests during this time. I think wealthy Texans definitely got the memo, that this was THE drink of NY “Society” during Prohibition. It wouldn’t be unusual to see a son drinking Stingers with his dad and grandfather at a holiday dinner. A really comforting generational tradition to witness.

I made a vow to create the cider version of a Stinger for this holiday season for Virtue Farm. After a fair bit of R&D, Reginald’s Winter Julep is here. A note to those new to this website - Virtue has only the licenses to make and sell our own cider. We cannot buy spirits or liqueurs. We get very creative for our cocktail program, which makes it a fun challenge.

For this two ingredient classic, to get the Cognac element, we make a heavily vanilla’d Demerara syrup, then quad-strength Emperor’s Mint Chocolate tea from Rare Tea Cellars with a splash of their Mocha Chai is the stand-in for Crème de Menthe. Our Mitten Reserve at 10.1% abv, made in barrels that once aged Old Forester Birthday Bourbon and Bourbon County Stout do the rest of the heavy lifting to create a boozier impression.

We just launched it today. I would love it if someone already familiar with a Stinger or better yet an aficionado of them would order one and give me their feedback. Maybe, they’ll like ours the best?!

The name, Reginald’s Winter Julep, comes from the man who didn’t create it, but certainly popularized the Stinger, Reginald Vanderbilt. He made them religiously for guests of his NYC mansion, behind his bar that was a replica from the tavern, William the Conqueror, in Normandy. Seems fitting we should make them at our Norman-inspired cider house in Fennville.

Historical notes from David Wondrich’s book, Imbibe!
