Fingers crossed. I really need a good vampire romance.

Couldn‘t really get into this one. I think it was me, not the book. I‘m so fussy with stories.

I‘m giving up on this one…not because it was no good but because I have been trying to listen to the audio book for well over a year and I just can not for the life of me find the time to do so. I always have to have an ear out here…it‘s hard to relax when I can‘t hear what‘s happening in case I‘m needed.

Another stellar entry in the series. While I'm gleeful to continue on to see how various characters develop further in the next book, I'm also relieved to have certain answers and see certain arcs completed in this one.
As I've come to expect, there are bonkers happenings, heartbreakingly human moments, and some damn creepy shit. 1/?

Robotswithpersonality 2/? A who's who of supernatural beings and conspiracy theory fodder, and moments where giggling hysterically is the only appropriate response.
No sooner did my mind begin drawing certain Thursday Murder Club vibes comparisons than the author made Osman the subject of a 'theory'. 😆
I think if you love both Terry Pratchett and Richard Osman, you should give this series a try.

Robotswithpersonality 3/? I sincerely hope we see Betty again, and loved seeing more of Harnforth. Did not realize I wanted that direction for Stanley, but it adds to my satisfied grinning.
I was concerned the somewhat split narrative would take away from the group dynamic, but there's definitely still smaller group clusters of chaos running about the place, and the earlier segmentation of the team makes the end even better.
2d
Robotswithpersonality 4/4 I am certainly going to follow up on the author's announced existence of a podcast with Stranger Times stories, and a newsletter subscription resulting in free short stories in the same universe, as it will make the wait until I can get the next book via interlibrary loan easier to bear.

Today: Finish the book tagged above. Work on some darning and crochet to help work through the post-book depression made worse by the fact that the next book isn‘t due until June. 😭 Also, clean and start on my research project that‘s due tomorrow. 😬

This book was so much fun! To summarize: senior protagonist dealing with a unique curse, a chaos-loving hobgoblin, a powerful no-nonsense woman business partner, general hilarity, and inclusivity throughout. My husband received this book in a book exchange and it's quickly become a favorite. The audiobook was amazing too! (We haven't read other books in the Iron Druid series).

Kenyazero Used for #GottaCatchEmAll Stoutland: set in Scotland @PuddleJumper; and #OwlHouseReadathon Matt Tholomule: A trickster 4d
PuddleJumper Ooo sounds fun! 4d
peanutnine This book was so fun! I need to read the rest of the series 3d
Kenyazero @PuddleJumper I would definitely recommend it if you enjoy urban fantasy! 3d
Kenyazero @peanutnine same! My husband is listening to the second book now and I‘m considering making him start over so I can listen with him 🤭 3d

This was so cute! Funny@and self deprecating with a tiny dash of danger and a fun mystery.

Discworld cameo? 🦆

BkClubCare I swear, the word “nonplussed” is everywhere! This is like the 4th time I‘ve encountered it. The third was about 4 pages ago in my current read! 😊 4d
willaful And usually used incorrectly. 😒 4d
Ruthiella @willaful I‘ve read that nonplussed can mean both “confused” and “unimpressed”. I always used it in the second way. I only recently learned it could mean or originally meant perplexed. 4d
