Welcome to Litsy!

Todays healthy breakfast happened indoors because we had a big thunderstorm last night and the outdoor tables were still drenched.

I like A BROKEN DARKNESS so far, but I miss the constantly shifting relationship dynamics that made the first book so good. This one‘s very much a What Happens After narrative featuring two people who know each other really, really well, but for whom everything has changed. We‘ll see how it develops.

I‘m hanging out with Geo and Premee Mohamed tonight.

This week‘s library haul fits perfectly in my new book bag. Whee!

I looked for the tagged book weeks ago because the catalogue said it was on the shelf, but couldn‘t find it and assumed someone else got it first. Turns out it was there all along, but it‘s part of the library‘s new thing where they catalogue some genre titles as Fiction instead of SF, Mystery, or Romance, with no apparent consistency behind the move. 🤷‍♀️

This sequel to Beneath the Rising is one of this year's Aurora Best Novel nominees. The premise is interesting (especially if you like Lovecraftian cosmic horror), but I couldn't get excited about the plot or characters.
