Bought too many books this month and also didn’t read enough. The pile tomorrow is going to be the smallest in quite a while.

Aka the “This is getting ridiculous” edition, AKA Snow Days Edition.
The most ridiculous thing? I forgot to grab K.X. Song’s The Dragon Wakes with Thunder and decided not to go back for it. So that’s not all of them.
Book of the Month is Children of Ash and Elm, with a special recognition for Hekate the Witch.


I think this counts as progress, actually.

Hm. Well, that’s a problem. But not my fault; I did everything I could, and you did too.

… also, why are you still here?

Book of the Month is Matt Dinniman’s This Inevitable Ruin, because shut up, that’s why.


… yeah, it’s gonna take two pictures again. Sigh. I’ve got two weeks off coming, I can tighten this up. I swear.
One book in one of those pictures was bought out of spite. See if you can guess which one! Your hint is that it’s new this month, but unfortunately there are a lot of those.

I think this might be the best picture of Sushi anyone has ever taken.

Did I rearrange this shelf hoping to hide the fact that there are more books on it than there were last month?
…maybe. I might have done that.
