Hello everyone remember me? I am currently having a grand time in Vancouver, here for kendo (Japanese sword fighting) nationals on Sat/Sun. Maybe I will start blogging again after this lol. Anyway, here are a couple snaps of what I was up to today, visiting some of my old haunts.

ooh this was a tough call, @middleearth.quest ... but I'm keeping my Athelas leaves.

Screenshot of Bluesky DM which reads as follows:

You rolled a 18 - Fortune smiles upon you.

RARE FIND!

You found: an Elven blade
Strength: +30

You are currently a Uruk-hai of Isengard with AThelas leaves
Strength: +25
Fortune: +1

Reply KEEP to stay as you are, or SWAP to become a Uruk-hai of Isengard with an Elven blade.

As a former librarian - I think WorldCat is your best bet, even if it may not capture everything. I've done a WorldCat search via my alma mater and was able to pull these libraries that have physical copies of BLOOD PRICE:

Lawrence Public Library
Springfield Greene County Library
Ingram Library Services
Hereford Branch
Ybp Library Services Yankee Book Peddler

I am ready to move on spooky reads! Next up: PITY, POWER AND TOLKIEN’S RING by @alas-not-me.bsky.social for nonfiction and DAVINCI’s CAT by Catherine Gilbert Murdock for fiction Something about both of these feels well-suited to dark cozy evenings and the approaching Christmas season…

can anyone remind me why I loved THE UNBEARABLE LIGHTNESS OF BEING? ...maybe I should do a post about the classics I sought out during undergrad (as a children's lit major who thought maybe I was missing out on something). 2025 me can't recall why I fell in love with some of these books.

Started reading some Sept ARCs this weekend! Finished MAKING HISTORY by KJ Parker (out 2 Sept from TorDotCom) - a story well-suited to its novella length, check this one out if dark dry humour and commentary on the nature of history and truth appeals to you.

Cover of book named in post. An illustrated cross-section cube of an ancient city in flames and ruins.

Extremely satisfying to at last add a fourth book to this stack #shelfie #MGLit
