Bailed on the last book I was reading, mostly because it was taking way too long for me to finish and it‘s due back at the library. It‘s a huge book with way too many slow parts, although I was intrigued by Elinor Glyn‘s life and work. Maybe I‘ll read it another time. But I was yearning to get lost in some fiction anyway, so here we are 😁
When paladin Galen, litch doctor Piper, and gnole constable Earstrap investigate mangled bodies that are washing up out of the river, they discover a plot to activate the mythical wonder engines.
I adored the interactions between the three main characters and the chemistry between Galen and Piper was adorable.

1. Nope. There are no heroes in humankind. If you'd like a better worded answer, take a look at @The_Pennilesss_Author 's post!
2. Done. Can highly recommend this. It offers great illustrations and a slightly feminist look on the Ancient Greeks, which you don't find too often.
I didn't have time to read yesterday so I took it today. I still need to finish the tagged book that I started in March (and also 2 others🙈). The tea is herbal called sweet dreams.

My 8 year old & have been reading this at bedtime, she‘s obsessed. She has become obsessed with mythology & is always checking out books at the library about Greek mythology. This is my first time reading the series. As you can see this book is well loved (my husband read this series to our middle child at least twice). All of my kids have ADHD, so having a character that they can relate to & see their disability represented matters. #bookspin
Pretty typical YA fantasy. Gwen goes to a school for magical people descended from mythological warriors and doesn‘t understand why she belongs there, despite her own magic powers. She‘s kind of an idiot who can‘t put two and two together, but it doesn‘t help that people keep telling her she‘s there to learn things and then not even trying to teach her. I liked that her power is psychometry and the development of her friendship with Daphne.

Spring is finally here and I can read outside. We finally have some sun. The beginning of March was colder than January, last week it rained and also we lost my father in law. Hope Spring brings us better days and more sun🌞☘️🌷
