Thank you for the wonderful package of goodies! The second half of 2024 has required lighter reading, with romance and cozy vibes. I’m looking forward to continuing that trend with a YA sapphic romance that features mystical creatures. The journal is adorable and my puzzle loving 16 year old has already made off with the fidget puzzle. I look forward to trying the various warm drinks while reading. It also gave me the chance to use a personalized book embosser that I was just gifted:)
Thank you, Emmalita! Dragons and Wizards and Shit would make an excellent 90’s band name.
“Packaged arrived.” “Huh, I don’t think I’m expecting anything,” Dome’Loki says. “Wait a minute,” as she dashes out the door. “Yes! It’s my Cannonball book exchange!” Dome’Loki clutches the package and rushes back into the house. Excitedly she opens it, careful not to damage anything. Inside is a delightful surprise of two books, a pair of perfect socks, and Cannonball Read stickers. Gazing at them, Dome’Loki, feels a rush of gratitude to Emmalita and the Cannonball community for continuing this wonderful tradition. In all seriousness, […]

Reading a CBR Book Exchange Gift. Thanks again, andtheIToldYouSos!
Confessions of the Fox by Jordy Rosenberg
I almost feel like I’m not smart enough to review this book. Don’t get me wrong, I liked it a lot! But I just don’t think I’m up to the task of pulling it apart for meaning, which it is practically begging you to do. And yet, what I like about it is how unpretentious it is. Confessions of the Fox is a piece of historical fiction that tells the story of Jack Sheppard, infamous thief and renegade, who is also a folk hero. The […]

All Systems Red by Martha Wells
I don’t know what I can say about this one that y’all haven’t already said! I’m very late to the party, but am enjoying myself immensely anyway. Murderbot is supposed to be a mindless security unit, doing whatever the company or the clients who rented it tell it to do. Murderbot hacked itself so it doesn’t have to follow anybody’s instructions, but cares just enough about its job protecting the humans that it half-heartedly does that job anyway, in between watching all its favorite TV […]
