Canavan, I grabbed the “new version” of The Night Ocean from NetGalley and was unimpressed. Though one likely had nothing to do with the other.

I've been following along but my reading (and life) at the moment is pretty chaotic, and there's only one week of school left so it's not about ..."So far only one story that’s been worth it but I’m not halfway done. I feel terribly behind in reading and even shows I’d like to watch. But I have been baking more and taking exercise, daily walks and yoga, seriously. We have to wear masks in the cubby area but not during class. I bought my own block this morning since we are no longer allowed to just borrow and disinfect the class supplies. I think I’ll spring for a bolster too.
Will the greatest of Batman’s return?
The Meat Garden (1996) by Craig Padawer DNFThe vegan gun idea was inspired. Tiny seeds blooming you from the inside out, like in Annihilation. But then it just went downhill so fast I passed.

The Snow Pavilion (1995) by Angela Carter ★★☆☆☆ A rich matron’s boy toy has a spooky time at a white doll filled mansion when his car breaks down. Boring.
Kum, Raúl (The Unknown Terror) by Steve Berman ★★½☆☆ Well, that was frustrating. I haven’t spent that much time sussing fact from fiction since The Drowning Girl. While I am now curious to read Lovecraft’s collaborations with Barlow let me save you time (or challenge you to search harder than I did), there is no story called Ignoble Rot and no collection titled Memories of Leng and other Pieces.
Midnight Mushrumps by W.H. Pugmire ★★☆☆☆ “He had never known starlight to be so intimate and coaxing, as if he could step from the solid ground and walk between the spaces of cold stars until he reached the moon...”
This might be my favorite sentence, it’s lovely and evocative. But that is the last of the good news. This was a pointless hallucinatory dream.
Anything that does not concern the fiscal year is not a priority.
Netflix is being back Unsolved Mysteries! Chills people, chills!, just the music gave me goosebumps: https://youtu.be/oZ4FrgGILM8
Wow, Lucifer Season 5 got a cast upgrade and a bit of a new look. I need to finish season four soon.https://youtu.be/fh7NHq1DSNg
Here it is, your first look at Foundation!https://youtu.be/gWU5zB5_SZw
For the record I was not big fan of the book, but that’s Lee Pace, looking his regal best, and I’m up for that.

This volume introduces* black science fiction, fantasy, and speculative fiction writers to the generations of readers who have not had the chance to explore the scope and diversity among African-American writers.*This was published in 2000 by the way.
Merlin outlives all his goals...Or something like that. Never considered what happened to him. In some stories he’s immortal.
Tragic hero ending with a dragon, I’ve heard that before. Did Arthur also get the knife? That actress went on to play a female Lex Luthor on Supergirl. Also on some Christmas princess movie my mother has watched a dozen times.

Wow, that’s really something. I watched a couple episodes then I was furious at Merlin for lying to Arthur about what a prick his dad was when Morgana showed him the truth. Morgana has a fabulous look.
The book says it won a multicast Audi but it’s not available on Audible. 😡
