While this is doubtlessly true, it is only part of the complex jigsaw of Jane's story. The human and emotional aspects of her story have often been ignored, although she is remembered as one of the Tudor Era's most tragic victims. Her death for high treason sent shockwaves through the Tudor world, and served as a gruesome reminder to all who aspired to a crown that the axe could fall at any time.Jane is known to history as "the Nine Days Queen," but her reign lasted, in fact, for thirteen days. Minutes later her head was struck from her body with a single stroke of a heavy axe. ![]() "Good people, I am come hither to die, and by a law I am condemned to the same."

It is a feel good story, but not as syrupy sweet as her last book, if you don’t count the Midnight Chocolates, but those are for emergency crisis resolutions. If I had to describe the book in one word, it would be ‘well-balanced’. As Fate would have it, the first woman she’s seriously attracted to turns out to be the head of their fiercest rival. ![]() Fortunately she has managed to hang on to a steadfast group of friends from a LGBT school club and they’ve gone on to form an advertising firm that’s gotten good enough to go after the big accounts.

In the beginning was the Word. Not to mention the Luggage, which has a mind of its own. These beautifully illustrated renditions of The Colour of Magic and The Light Fantastic show and tell the bizarre misadventures of the spectacularly inept wizard Rincewind and Twoflower, Discworld's very first-and possibly, portentously its very last-tourist. To commemorate the twenty-fifth anniversary of the birth of the Discworld, the first two volumes of the remarkable Terry Pratchett's equally remarkable-and phenomenally successful-series were made available together, right here, in graphic novel form. The Discworld is a place (and a time) strikingly parallel to our own-but also very different. Imagine a flat world sitting on the backs of four elephants who hurtle through space balanced on a giant turtle.

I’m not a fan of time jumps, but I think it worked in this book because it was used to show that Lewis and Todd were friends for quite a long time before becoming romantic. The plot is written so that there are jumps in years, usually around certain events, that show the progression of their relationship and how it develops from friendship to something more. They even reside in different parts of the town. Polar bears and penguins have their own social and relationship rules, lots of rules, that are totally different which encourages them to avoid each other. This story was so darn cute! The author created a detailed and unique shifter world. This is told in first person from both character’s povs. ![]() A Pebble for Lewis is the story of Lewis a penguin shifter, and polar bear shifter, Todd. ![]() 5/28/2023 0 Comments Blank Canvas by Mere Joyce![]() ![]() With me she lingered in her own skin, her hands in mine, our lips caressing necks, shoulders, and breasts. Those motions belonged to her royal self, not the one we shared. None of her rapid, curt movements existed in our meetings. Our tails would slowly change from beautiful fins to strong, elegant legs.ĭiana moved slowly with me. We would find a beach free of humans and lie together, kissing and touching in the sand as our bodies transitioned from mer to human. I held a mystery that no one else knew or shared. Then they slowly turned smooth moments before my ankles separated and my toes lost their webbing. I watched my scales turn from their bright, inky blue to a honey color as they bleached before my eyes. I sat there in the cool, late-summer air, feeling the briskness of the sea breeze and a slight sting of the spray against my newly formed legs.ĭeveloping legs was always a sensuous experience to me. Familiar with the area from years of fishing there, I knew Southern Point and slid myself onto the rocks. ![]() I swam south, feeling the water warm slightly as I approached the Massachusetts coast.

There’s also all sorts of other stuff going on in the first half, however – stuff that it’s basically impossible to get a handle on. And it’s political: the novel exposes the hypocrisies that accompany rigid ideology, but also questions how an individual can live with integrity if they only live for themselves. It’s sexy: Levy writes keenly about layered attraction and resentment, how her characters bestow and withdraw gifts of sex and affection. It’s funny: Saul’s narcissistic narration is full of deadpan details of youthful pretentiousness, social awkwardness. It’s stylish: written with a speedy, vivid economy, her characters’ eccentricities leaping off the page. ![]() ![]() All of which – even as a bald plot summary – sounds ripe and rich, right?
