Ran a bunch of errands, and finally got the recycling down to the recycling center. (I was driving around with it in the back of the car because it was raining too much to take it in.)

Another new book out:


Royal Airs (An Elemental Blessings Novel) by Sharon Shinn
I've been really looking forward to this one.

"Filled with vivid details of everyday life, a strong and admirable heroine, and a plot with as many twists and turns as the mighty river that threads through the story, Shinn’s latest novel should appeal to her avid readership and to lovers of the genre. Highly recommended."--—Library Journal (starred review)
