I’m slowly working my way through a gorgeous Folio Society copy of The Hobbit; taking a newly-edited version of The Falconer by Elizabeth May out for beers in the sunshine most weekends; and listening to endless alien smut audiobooks from the free section of Audible. (I contain multitudes.)

Photo of the Folio Society edition of The Hobbit, with foiled gold swirls on a red hardback, and a portrait of Smaug the dragon on the front cover.

Everyone probably already knows the plot, but I’d never read it before, and if I manage to finish it (I struggle to read physical books these days), I’ve promised myself the Folio LOTR trilogy to match it.

Photo of the front cover of the newest version of Elizabeth May’s The Falconer, a golden design of thistles on a forest green hardback, with a crossbow at its centre.

Initially edited to suit a YA description, it has been re-released with the original, spicier “romantasy” spirit of the novel. I’m not gonna lie, I bought the trilogy to look pretty on my new bookshelves, but it’s really good (and indeed extremely pretty!)

My husband and my two BFFs are in London, Chicago, and NYC right now. Yesterday it was so beautiful here on the island that I felt sorry for them all—multiple times!—for being in some of the greatest cities on earth instead of here. Today I do not.

Screenshot of my weather app, showing 6 degrees Celsius and 54mph winds, with the forecast “strong winds and heavy rain”.

Which is why nature made babies look like this

A 6-month-old goldendoodle, ginger-coloured with cartoon-like dark eyes and nose, very fluffy, wearing a pink tweed harness, and standing on stone steps outdoors, surrounded by green grass. She is very cute.

She had a slight fever when they checked her in, so she’s coming back home and we’ll try again on Monday. We shall save up any incoming luck till then! ❤️

I feel that this site could do with more pet pics, no? So could I perhaps trade you this sweet scene of domestic bliss for some good luck? Our Maisie (the big blonde) is going in for major surgery today, so we could use the good vibes! ❤️

This is Bella, she has scary-seeming seizures at least monthly, but she is the happiest kitty ever. 🥰 My understanding is that they are much less worrisome in cats than dogs, for some reason. I’m sending so much love and luck to your Newman. I know what it is to love a cat! ❤️

This was me on the ex-bird app—hoping to find people again here!
