Collections

It's Walkin' and Readin' Wednesday!

A rag-tag collection of items today:

New stray in the yard, taken as Henry and I watched through the window.

Smith Street Black and White kitty.

Woodpecker feather, found on sidewalk.

See the kitty next to the mailbox?

Hickory Tussock Moth Catepillar.

Recent audiobook listens that I recommend:

Threshing Day by Rebecca Yarros
The Empyrean Series Book #3.5
Narrated by large cast

Fourth Wing Book #1
Iron Flame Book #2
Onyx Storm Book #3

Goodreads blurb: "Enter the brutal and elite world of a war college for dragon riders."

My two cents: Action-packed, magic, dragons, venin (really bad guys), scribes, royalty, war, love, and a cat named Broccoli.  It's so action packed, and both the dramatized (multi-cast) and duet style of narration are terrific.  Hold onto your seat!
Check the trigger warnings.

Reliquary by Hannah Whitten
Narrated by Lauren Fortgang

Audible blurb: "A young woman is lured to her late fiancé's remote island estate—only to uncover eerie family secrets, a haunting past, and a monstrous hunger stirring beneath the sea in this deliciously atmospheric horror debut from New York Times bestselling author Hannah Whitten."

My two cents: Whoa, did NOT see that coming!
Can't say much more, so I don't spoil this wild private island horror story.

The Nightmare's Kiss Book #1 by Skyla Gray
Monster Research Facility Series
Narrated by Rachel Lebland

The Revenant's Heart Book #2
The Imaginary Friend's Obsession #3
The Harbinger's Redemption #4 (haven't listened to it yet)

Goodreads blurb for each book:
"How can a living nightmare bring such sweet dreams?
Can a dead heart learn to beat again?
Could her imaginary friend be a real threat?
Will their love save the world, or end it?"

My two cents: Sure, romance, but we've got sirens, Frankenstein's monsters, ghosts, shadows, nightmares come true...oh, it's just a load of fun, but not for the creatures imprisoned at the government facility.

New Friends

While walking in the 'hood one day...

I was taken by surprise...by several cutie pies!
This is Zoomac, and he flopped at my feet and demanded attention.
I gladly gave it!
His tag fell off during the process, so I called the phone# and met Zoomac's human across the street, who assured me that he will flop for anyone.
That's okay with me!
Do you see the other doggo, through the fence posts?
Our friend Sly, first time I've seen him in several weeks.
He also demanded worshipping, but no flopping for my boyfriend.
This is Feather.
Our neighbor just TNR'd her, so no kittens for this wee one, and being a kitten herself, she was named Feather as she's as light as air.
My goal: make friends with Feather.
