I just read Not Lost (Never Lost), a moving short story by Premee Mohamed: https://psychopomp.com/not-lost-never-lost/

I'm in the middle of The Light Eaters, a good book about plant intelligence by Zoe Schlanger, and Free Love, a novel by Tessa Hadley, which are both due back to the library but I'm not willing to relinquish them and pick them back up after someone else has had a turn yet, even though

I have A People's History of the United States, by Howard Zinn,
How to Read Now, by Elaine Castillo,
The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane, by Lisa See,
The Berry Pickers, by Amanda Peters,
Kings of the Wyld, by Nicholas Eames,
and Self-Made Boys, by Anna-Marie McLemore
all on deck for book groups this month.

You've got a lot of book groups, with a wide range of topics. Good things for a cold month.

[boxofdelights]

I do! Fortunately the first two books are for the same group, and one of them will be discussed over the first three months of this year.

What a sweet story! It reminds me of 7:55:46 AM, EDT by ohtempora about the Cassini spacecraft.

Subscribed right back :-)

Also granted access. Most locked stuff is currently health releated, so feel free to skip if you're not inclined.
