Love that she asked about Shooting Glasses like that’s what everyone calls him, and it’s not just a nickname she only used in her own head.

Damn, girl. We’ve got to get you out of this town.

I’ve waited too long and now the plot of the first book is fuzzy. Off to read a synopsis.

This conversation with the Oracles is shockingly straightforward. Maybe the most straightforward conversation anyone has ever had with an Oracle.

Effing shifter politics. They are as bad as Klingons

The worst part of being a ghost possessing a doll seems to be that you can’t cry or sleep.

Celebrating Halloween in the Spring feels deeply wrong but you do you, Australia.

Lucy: people knew I was queer?
Also Lucy: (shows up to a tea party in full mad hatter cosplay)

I like the subtle critique of The Walking Dead that’s happening here.

50 pages in, I decided that I know I’m going to like this and went to buy the author’s other book, realized I already owned it, found it on my TBR shelf, and went back to reading.

I think telling people the premise of this book and seeing how they react would be an excellent friendship test, if I believed testing people’s taste was a reasonable thing to do.

Checking out the dramatized version on a road trip. Dramatized versions of several popular series are on mega sale on audible.

Luc is not my favorite. He’s like if Harry believed his own press.

This is very interesting and it puts some language into perspective for me

I appreciate the use of collective noun “conspiracy” to refer to a group of teenage girls

Never go with a hippie to a second location

Oh Laurel, don’t be that MIL.

No spoilers ever. I’m remembering the barest hints of Mortifying Ordeal plot points while I’m reading. Honestly, they are so different that I don’t get confused and try to map HP characters onto everyone who shows up. But I will have to re-read Mortifying Ordeal after this to have more of BK’s words in my head.

The pub names keep making less and less sense and it’s glorious.

I’m sooo excited! For the relationship and the plot! Seeing Tom Felton as Draco on Broadway did absolutely nothing to quash my burgeoning Dramione sensibility (it really just fanned the flames, to mix a metaphor).

“I hate having emotions about reality. I’d rather have them about Sanctuary Moon”… rude to call me out like that, book

Love that the murderbot describes his face as “generic human” and the casting director is like… hmmmm, right… Alexander Skarsgård it is then

Why does “terrace house” always sound like “terrorist house” to my ear?

I enjoy the way Australians say “respiratory” - actually pronouncing all the letters

Nope. Don’t like that.

They are so concerned about a stranger in the house. Um… this isn’t your house. YOU are the creepy strangers.

This is surprisingly entertaining even though I know everything that’s going to happen (saw the movie a couple of times).

Oh Eve, your boyfriend is suspected of murder? No big deal, run with it. Oh, now your best friend? Sure, run the investigation; better let her move into your house while you do. Oh, now it’s your butler? And maybe your husband too? Should be no conflict of interest there. Carry on.

I mean, if he wanted a proper Mrs. Roarke, he wouldn’t have married Eve. And he knows it. Eve and Somerset need a whole bottle of chill pills.

Eve, it’s ok to not treat Peabody like crap when you get annoyed with something else. It really is.
