Sometimes you just feel the need to sit outside and read...even if your only option is the landing of your apartment stairs #bookworm #outside #loveit

I adored this book! I wasn't aware when I got it, but it's a young adult book. Described as the "Steampunk version of Beauty and the Beast" it has all the making of a wonderfully magic tale. Filled with evil powers, beautiful people and love.

Soft science steam punk reimagining of Jane Eyre. Jane Eliot is a worthy heir to Brontë's heroine. The universe set up by Connolly of magic, feys, dwarves mixed with a little science is well thought out and engaging. Jane is a wonderful character. She is the centtal piece of the story and she keeps the reader engaged. Book 2 and 3 ordered.

10 hours work day, 6 of them in a meeting. This is me right now. Definitely relax it's Friday evening. Probably will finish Ironskin. The universe Connolly created is pretty interesting. #startinganewjanuary

Need a pick me up? A good story and enthralling character will do it for me. Right now, Ironskin has it. So do my beloved hockey teams who are playing tonight. Leafs in Philly and if Incan stay awake Pens in LA. I'm going back to Ironskin. I ordered the next book in the series yesterday it's so good. #startinganewjanuary Also child kissing the Stanley Cup ...awwwwww

writerlibrarian Don't know how long I'll stay awake but...Pens open the score after 43s. That was a nasty hit on Schultzy. (edited) 7y

Sunday game is Pens vs NY Rangers. Let's go Pens. A hot bath, hockey on the app and a good book. Kinda like a piece of heaven. #readingandlisteningtohockey

Melissa_J That sounds lovely 😊 7y
writerlibrarian Pens strike first. Hornqvist in front. 1-0. Rangers break away tie the game. 1-1. NY scores in the last m of the 1st. 2-1 NY. 2nd period is starting, Pens go on PP. Rangers kill it but a few seconds after get back in the 📦. Brady S K J nope not gonna happen in the 📦 . Fight erupts NY will probably go on PP. Pens kill it. Then Crosby takes it to the next level. Simon scores. 2 all. Kessel adds to it. At the end of 40m 3-2 Pens. (edited) 7y
writerlibrarian On with the 3rd. King Henrik is losing it. Call on the ice is goal. It will be challenged. But it's probably 4-2 Pens. No goal it was kicked in. Pens go on PP with Schultzy at the blue line. Less than 10m Crosby scores. 4-2 Pens. 5m10 to go. In an empty net, Hagelin scores. 5-2 Pens. 2m to go. Pens win. 🐧👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 (edited) 7y
