The Last Mapmaker | Christina Soontornvat

An adventure on the high seas with a talented junior mapmaker. I never really thought about how ships figured out where to go to “discover” a new landmass. There was definite emphasis on how there were already people in these places that were claimed to have been found by the empire.

While I was searching for Discworld themed knit or crochet projects I came across a cute Great A‘tuin amigurumi pattern. I don‘t know anything about amigurumi yet. I have a beginner project sitting in the frog pond waiting for me to attempt again. So this link https://www.planetjune.com/blog/about/amigurumi-discworld/ is beyond my understanding and looks suitable for someone with better creative skills.

Tolkien: Treasures | Catherine McIlwaine

One of my current hyper fixations is J.R.R.Tolkien. I stumbled across this and knew I needed it. It has a bit of info about his life and his writing. However, it is mostly photos of his artwork. I only learned recently how much of an artist he was. This is a quick read, and I'm glad I found it.

Daisey I haven‘t seen this one you‘ve read, but I do love the book I have about his art! 4mo
bookishbitch @Daisey Oh, that one looks good too! 4mo

Yikes. I‘ve never seen such a promising premise fall apart so spectacularly in the last five chapters. Avoiding spoilers, but the plot fell to pieces, character motivations stopped making sense, even the message the author was aiming for gets reversed and trivialized. And all within about twenty pages. I‘d almost be impressed, if the book‘s ending hadn‘t been so bad.

This was a funish mystery, but it got a little too far fetched by the end. It‘s hard not to with magical realism.

The majestic, stunning, breath taking Snoqualmie Falls. Home and land of First Nations People, the Snoqualmie. ‘People of the moon‘.

I have only unfortunately seen a few waterfalls in my life so far, but this one is the most beautiful. I couldn‘t look away. The water always calls me. Lots of spirit energy in this area. Hallowed ground.
