there is something so tragically beautiful about haymitch adding all the tributes he mentored to the memory book. he spent those 23 years drunk out of his mind and in d12 it was believed that he didn’t care, but he remembered all 46 tributes he couldn’t save.

Callout post for Seanan McGuire, author of the hit book series, Wayward Children-- I mean criminal mastermind

As you can see by this very official and very clearly cited and sourced and verified claim with no basis, my adorable and precious and sweet cat has been THIEFED and SCRUNKLED and SMARTENED by none other than @seananmcguire , author of the recently published Lost in the Moment and Found, part of the Wayward Children series (which is quite good-- I mean a fiendish ploy to catnap my baby girl).

Pictured above, is the DESCRIPTION of what they had DONE to my BABY by my best friend ACE RESEARCHER.

SUCH EVIL.

Here is my poor little baby who has done no wrong ever in her whole life and is just a little creature.

Look at her. Sleek. Commanding. Pristine. Orange and therefore dumb as a bag of rocks.

How daaaare you take my baby and un-himbo her. How daaaare you scrunkle such a sleek child. This needs to be dealt with promptly with the fullest extent of my power!

MORE CAT PICTURES.

So yeah anyways if you could spread this around that'd be great because everyone needs to see my child-- I mean get more eyes on this series-- I mean BRING SEANAN TO JUSTICE.

TW: kidnapping, sexual assault, sexual harassment, drugging, misogyny

✩🎁❄️Review:

If you are hoping for a fluffy, festive romance, this is not it. 

Set after the Caraval series, “Spectacular” follows Donatella Dragna as she embarks on the ultimate holiday adventure to find the perfect gift for Legend. 

I LOVED the first half of this book. It was a joy to return to Valenda and spend more time with Scarlett, Tella, Julian, and Legend. Rosie Fowinkle’s gorgeous illustrations truly bring them to life! The red accents Fowinkle added to her images paired with Garber’s whimsical writing definitely got me into the holiday spirit. 

Unfortunately, this book took a turn for the worst near the halfway point that left me feeling uncomfortable. Simply put, this book fails to take consent into consideration. 

🚨‼️SPOILER ALERT‼️🚨

To go into more detail, Tella is drugged and kidnapped at one point in the story. She wakes up in the Spice Quarter—a place riddled with gambling pits, drug dens, and brothels. Soon after, she is forced to change into an outfit that leaves her scantily clad so that she can show off her backside to a man whose identity is not known. She is then taken to his private room where she is blindfolded, gagged, and restrained. Once there, the man touches and kisses her without her consent. The reader ultimately finds out that the mystery man is Legend, but honestly, that did not make the whole series of events better in my eyes. Had she known it was him all along, what transpired would still be considered assault given that she did not consent to any of it. Readers fresh off of Finale might be able to connect what happened here to the letter Tella wrote in which she asked Legend to kidnap her. Why Legend thought this would be such a great holiday gift is lost on me. As someone who hasn’t read Finale in years, I did not make the connection. Neither did Tella, which is what made the whole thing icky. 

🚨‼️END OF SPOILERS‼️🚨

I was hoping for more ScarJulian content at the very least, but their presence is more akin to a cameo. I hope that the next one (which is alluded to in the epilogue) does not follow in its predecessor’s footsteps.

Realized I never posted this one - cover art for the first novella in a series about fantasy and gay people having a delightful disastrous romp. Novella is called The Chase Begins by Aimee Donnellan, very fun dnd vibes if that's your jam!

[meandmyechoes]

much appreciate manga form skyguy & snips from Takashi Okazaki but it's also hilarious to see ahsoka grab her saber like a baseball bat

NEW ARC POST!

In the Shadow of the Fall is a fast paced and epic novella that should be longer than a duology but I’m happy that I have it at all.

Absolutely amazing. Need more stories and novellas like this

[halfratsalready]

Finishing up the outline for the Lose Yourself Series prequel one shot (that may end up being a two shot, or god forbid a multi chapter fic, based on how much I’ve got in this outline oops) and I’m super excited. I love this silly little world I built and I love this silly little coach and his silly little adventures and I hope I can do the idea (and your expectations) justice when I start writing the fic

[benevolenterrancy]

if you're not reading the last book of SVSSS right now do you mind me asking what you are reading? I'm just curious!

Definitely! (though I warn you, I'm fundamentally incapable of reading only one thing at a time)

For physical books, I'm currently reading The Warden by Daniel M. Ford, the novelization of My Neighbour Totoro, and trying to keep up on Dracula Daily (i am failing this)

For audiobooks, I've been relistening to The Series of Unfortunate Events (because I never actually read them all when they were originally coming out) and I juuust finished This Census-Taker by China Miéville and Ogres by Adrian Tchaikovsky this weekend. I'm about to start A Closed and Common Orbit by Becky Chambers.

[autumn-opossum]

I had a dream that A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers was adapted into a 2D animated movie and now I need it to exist so badly
