I received an ARC of this novel from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. Before I give my opinions on Boudicca, I have two conflicting confessions to make. First, I know the story of Boudicca exceedingly well. One of my majors in college was in ancient history, with most of my interest (and therefore… Continue reading Review: Boudicca by P.C. Cast

The Skein Of Your Life
This post is full of random bits of recent life, including art provided by SK, who found a calligrapher to create this gorgeous piece out of one of my favorite movie quotes (from The 13th Warrior), which he then had framed for our anniversary. The text reads: The All-Father wove the skein of your life… Continue reading The Skein Of Your Life
Choose Your fAngus
I spent last week commuting to the office every day because the work-folk from Europe were in town. It was a very fun, very productive, very long week. My commute is nearly an hour one way when there's no traffic, so on average it was 2.5-3 hours in the car every day. Also, let's be… Continue reading Choose Your fAngus
If Barking Was A Sport
Minerva would be an Olympic Gold Medalist. Today she's watched, with absolute attention and barky gusto: Swimming Women's water polo (she was disappointed no horses were involved, and we agreed non-water-polo should be an equestrian Olympic sport) Kayaking (neither of us knew that was a sport either, and while I don't disagree it looks sporty… Continue reading If Barking Was A Sport
Snippets
I'm writing this at the cabin (yay) with a raging headache caused by my own stubborn experimentation* (ugh). Please forgive the general erratic-ness and worse than usual grammar. There is neither rhyme nor reason to anything in this post: it's full of random mess. I'm not sure how summer is half over already, but here… Continue reading Snippets
A Tisket, A Tasket…
A fAngus in a basket… Oh, is this your clean bedding? I had no idea! What’s over there? Is that a ghost in the corner? Just…look away from the cat in the basket, human!
Every Title I’ve Tried for this is Filthy. Also, please ignore our carpet.
This is not a real post because school hasn't ended and things have been just this side of insanely busy for the last howevermany weeks (good Goddess how is it JUNE already? I still have a zillion unintended snapdragons to plant!) and I have three reviews to write. Yes, the run on sentence reflects what's… Continue reading Every Title I’ve Tried for this is Filthy. Also, please ignore our carpet.
Book News
I have a cover!! I love it. I can't wait to do a big cover reveal whenever I'm allowed. I also got to see a draft of the forward, written by an author I had at the top of my "if only" wish list when asked for anyone I'd prefer the publisher ask first. The… Continue reading Book News
A fAngus Follow Up
I'm working on a book review and some other bits of news, but in the meantime Mr. fAngus had a bit of a photo shoot last night that produced some entertaining expressions. He wasn't trying to look like a disdainful supermodel, but that's what ended up happening after Ragnar and Minerva ran by making noise,… Continue reading A fAngus Follow Up
How I Offended fAngus This Week. Also, an Essay Published!
fAngus, who is nearly seven (and no, I don't know how old that makes him in cat years because, unlike dogs, cats don't enthusiastically share their actual age with folk they consider staff) has always been a contrary little dude. He prefers not to snuggle, thank you very much. He spent most of his time… Continue reading How I Offended fAngus This Week. Also, an Essay Published!
