Listen To A Story

 June is Audiobook Month!

I list my most recent audiobook listens on Walkin' and Readin' Wednesdays, so on this first day of Audiobook Month, here's a list of the titles that aren't mainstream, yet are entertaining as heck.

Slaycation Series, by Lauren Biel

1. Sinners Retreat (2024)
2. Slay Ride (2025)
3. Ship Happens (2025)
4. Slaughter Park (2026)
5. Sinners Reunion (August, 2026)

"Serial killers need vacations too! This is a dark rom-com series" - Goodreads 

Lots of humor, very adult, and yeah, bad people are unalived...a lot.

Clovenhoof Series, by Heide Goody and Iain Grant

1. Clovenhoof (2012)
2. Pigeonwings (2013)
3. Godsquad (2015)
4. Hellzapoppin' (2015)
5. Beelzebelle (2016)
6. Hooflandia (2018)
7. Holymoly (2018)
8. Alpacalypse (2023)
9. Hankypanky (2024)
10. Babelicious (2025)

"Charged with gross incompetence, Satan is fired from his job as Prince of Hell and exiled to that most terrible of places: English suburbia, and forced to live as a human." - Goodreads

To me, these authors hold up a mirror to modern society, and take massive potshots at everything: governments, soccer mom's, every organized religion, pubs, heavy metal bands, writers, saints, and more.

Snark, humor, silliness beyond what meer mortals can do, but do NOT mess with Joan of Arc, unless it's with a hot-air balloon.

Stranger Times Series, by C. K. McDonnell

1. The Stranger Times (2021)
2. This Charming Man (2022)
3. Love Will Tear Us Apart (2023)
4. Relight My Fire (2024)
5. Ring the Bells (2025)

"A weekly newspaper dedicated to the weird and the wonderful (but mostly the weird), it is the go-to publication for the unexplained and inexplicable." - Goodreads

Manchester UK has got ghosts, monsters, magic, vampires, and more, and The Stranger Times staff wants to report it all, except there are dark forces that don't want anyone to know.

Humor, goofiness, and then there is DI Sturgess who has an alien living in his head.

Kat and Lock Series, by Jo Callaghan

1. In the Blink of an Eye (2023)
2. Leave No Trace (2024)
3. Human Remains (2025)
4. Body of Lies (2026) Audiobook not yet available in US

"Featuring DCS Kat Frank and Lock – the world’s first AI Detective - AIDE (Artificially Intelligent Detective Entity)." - Goodreads

Lock can scan computer files by the thousands in seconds, saving the police time and money, yet probabilities don't catch criminals.

Henry Update:

Henry is a feline sleeping tablet!

If a human lays down on the bed with him, they will be asleep before they know it.

Must be the way he parks his body up against the human.

Grinnin'

May 31 is National Smile Day.

Sometimes a smile is hard to accomplish; see memes below:


Hahahaha!

Henry and Me ussie, and I think we are both smiling!

Henry Update:

It was brought to my attention that Henry's antibiotics and probiotics should NOT be administered at the same time.


As of Friday, I'm giving Henry the probiotics capsule at least two hours before administering his antibiotics at the 8 PM med dose.

Maybe this will help with his poopy issue, after weeks of doing it wrong!

The H Man most likely has intestinal lymphoma, and after giving him handfuls of meds for almost two months, the only change is that he's eating regularly.

Opting for chemo, in any form, seems incredibly harsh and I have apprehensions.

Even so, we will go ahead with it soon.

Details to follow.

Hard Stare

It's Caturday!

Manny was surveying his domain from the top o' the fridge.

I artified him with Prisma filter Bouquet.
