Quote from Legends from Arctic Norway: They took the lid and put it on the coffin, and nailed it fast with three-inch nails. And without any more hymn-singing he was borne aboard the funeral boat that lay ready to take him to where he should be laid in the bosom of the earth and rest in the peace of his grave. That is if he had peace to remain there, and not go a-haunting, even though he was dead.

My ebook is 99 cents in most places! If you’ve been on the fence about whether you want to buy what one of my critique partners called “a love letter to Judaism, but with vampires,” NOW IS THE TIME.

Also the vampire’s wife is bi/pan and has two mommies. Buy it for Pride!

'Els Nikolaidis' tanca la temporada del #ClubDeLectura del MMB | #Barcelona Ciutat de la Literatura

> Sobre Els Nikolaidis, de Josep M. Quintana: "Al segle XVIII, els afanys expansionistes de les grans potències europees van fixar els ulls en l'illa de Menorca. Els Nikolaidisés la història d'una família de mariners i comerciants grecs que es va traslladar a Maó atreta per les mesures proteccionistes del govern britànic. Amb paciència, tenacitat i ambició, van aconseguir sobreviure a l'agitada vida política de l'illa i penetrar en el món exclusiu d'una burgesia comercial cada cop més poderosa, fins a situarse al capdamunt de l'entramat econòmic, social i polític dela ciutat de Maó."

finished reading The Man Who Died Twice 🌕🌕🌗🌑🌑
by Richard Osman.

More fun times with the crime-solving (& committing!) pensioners. The stakes are higher but doesn't feel so fresh. A bigger role for the inscrutable Bogdan is welcome. Laughs off some pretty substantial abuse of the justice system.

Book number 9 for the year finished!

This time I read The Rainfall Market by You Yeong-Gwang. It was quite good! I loved all the characters and the different shops in the market! It was a very chill book with surprising action. I also appreciated the twists and turns at the end. I even teared up a little bit!

I give this book a 4.5 out of 5!

Only 26 books left until my goal!

Today's review goes in the Non-SF Books section of the site. Nicola Griffith is this year's recipient of SFWA's Damon Knight Memorial Grand Master Award. She has written SF, Fantasy, and historical fiction, but The Blue Place is a neo-noir mystery, and the beginning of her Aud Torvingen series. Very good, highly recommended.

“Katherine Villyard’s Immortal Gifts is a tender, layered, and unexpectedly intimate vampire novel that defies the genre’s usual brooding tropes.”

“It’s for the weird, the tender-hearted, the spiritually curious.”
