Well, it can‘t be Baba Yaga, wrong country! I don’t trust her…

A very poetic sex scene.

Thenike telling and singing that story—that was pretty cool.

This felt like a wrap-up and cliffhanger for the next book. But no, there is more…

That is quite the revelation by Julien Mayfair.

Switching the POV in chapter 5. That’s unexpected!

This is good! Very readable. I might need to read more by Griffith.

Still slogging through Quinn‘s story!

“This is what comes of reading The Clan of the Cave Bear at a formative age.“

“The man in black, everyone,” Raven said from the radio. “And now let’s keep it going for our travelers tonight, with ‘I’ve Been Everywhere.’”

The only two people who were enjoying themselves were Grandma Billy and Copper. Copper hung her head out the window, grinning hugely, with her tongue dangling like a peculiarly meaty pennant. Grandma Billy was not so much a backseat driver as a backseat heckler…

“That,” said Father Aguirre in equal parts pride and despair, “is a 1950 Ford F-1 pickup truck.”
“But that’s over a hundred years old!”
“It was my great-grandfather’s,” the priest said. “They made them to last in those days.” He heaved another sigh. “And now I am about to drive it through the desert, probably off anything resembling a road. Saint Christopher have mercy upon my paint job.”

Referencing “When a Scot Ties the Knot“, lol…. I have read that and it is indeed a good one!

And boy, does Anne Rice love Lestat!

“You are a soul who has a body, never forget.”
“I don’t know if I believe that,” admitted Selena.
“That’s all right,” said Father Aguirre, smiling. “Fortunately, some things stay true whether we believe in them or not.”

„All Selena knew about roadrunners came from cartoons, and if she’d ever thought about them at all, it was that they looked sort of like ostriches and made meeping noises.“

It goes without saying that I just made a meep-meep noise…

„She didn’t know if any part of your spirit hung around after you were buried, but if they did, at least Aunt Amelia would get to watch quail and lizards.“

The direction picks you…

„You would need something more than walls to hold Grandma Billy. Barbed wire and a moat, at the very least.“

“Kipling was followed by Led Zeppelin, Taylor Swift, and a mariachi cover of “Bye Bye Bye.”“

Well, that is eclectic… 😜

“This is what I’m reduced to. Coveting my neighbor’s tamales.“
