Finished reading: The Devil of Downtown by Joanna Shupe 📚
Another excellent Gilded Age historical romance.
🔖📺 Read The Donald Trump I Saw on The Apprentice.
For 20 years, I couldn’t say what I watched the former president do on the set of the show that changed everything. Now I can.
Woof. I don’t think stories like this will move the needle for Trump supporters, because I don’t really think anything will move the needle for Trump supporters.
But I kind of hope they turn some non-voters into voters.
Finished reading: Here We Go Again by Alison Cochrun 📚
This made me bawl. I love a childhood best friends to enemies to lovers story, and this one is about English teachers and their mentor English teacher and love through decades.
Oh the irony of being unable to go to the pharmacy to pick up your (my) migraine meds because you (I) have a migraine. (Please do not recommend migraine treatments at this time, thank you.)
Today:
- woke up way too early
- read about Romance Writers of America filing for bankruptcy and the absurd way they’re trying to blame it on Courtney Milan 🔖📚
- had my first mammogram (later than I ought) (they used cute stickers to mark my sebaceous cysts)
- caught up on Season 3 of Bridgerton 📺
🎮 Played Assemble with Care.
I’m really feeling wholesome games lately, especially those with a warm pastel color palette and soothing music. In this game, you fix people’s stuff and inspire them to fix their relationships.
On sale on Steam for $3.19 through June 11, iOS & Android for $3.99.
Finished reading: The Prince of Broadway by Joanna Shupe 📚
I loved it. A delightful heroine, a debutante with dreams of owning a women-only casino. The bitter casino owner she’s chosen to mentor her. Excellent stuff.
Midnight is very sleepy.
Finished reading: The Essential X-Men Volume 3 by Chris Claremont 📚
Read as single issues and only the Uncanny X-Men books, not the annuals, but this is the easiest way to track reading the comics.
That feeling when you went to the pool with children and you only had snacks for lunch and your knee hurts and you’re ready for bed at 3:30. Hashtag relatable. Am I right?
