The Beauty by Aliya Whiteley is suppose to be about a society where all the women died some time ago and the last generation of men are trying to survive and cope with that. I have not read it yet though so I am not sure if they include any trans characters and their fates, but maybe it will interest you.

Yeah, after finishing the Wheel of Time series it felt like I really lost something important and it was so hard to get into other fantasy worlds for a while due to how immersed I was in it for so long.

I read this book recently that fits into the mystery/crime/creepy category: What Lies in the Woods by Kate Alice Marshall

That’s the most aggressive wink I’ve ever seen!

The actual awards where they celebrate the games they are supposedly meant to celebrate. Some respect for the devs who poured all their time into making them instead of being rushed off the stage. And finally it would be nice for them to actually acknowledge the industries struggles this year and put a light on the fact that the gaming culture is kinda rotten and this is meant to counteract it, instead it seems to fall into the same hole.

I just went through a loss myself. My boy was 17 and I had him since he was a kitten and honestly it still hurts many months later. There is no easy fix. I still start crying at random times if I happen to see his favourite toy or a picture of him. You just need to let it run its course I think and slowly it gets better, just be there for your partner and offer support and hugs.

I played through Far: Lone Sails and really enjoyed the light puzzle and management of the machine. It was super atmospheric and I really loved the game overall. It was a perfect casual game that really absorbed me into it. Going to play the sequel as well soon.

I do Halloween reads all year! I also just really like horror in general so I tend to pick them up a lot. There are a lot of different subgenres of horror as well so it’s hard to recommend stuff without knowing your specific preferences, but here are some that I’ve read recently and liked.

If you want creepy occult you can try:

  • Silver Nitrate by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
  • Mister Magic by Kiersten White

If you want creepy atmospheric:

  • The Luminous Dead by Caitlin Starling
  • The Hollow Places by T Kingfisher

If you want messed up horror:

  • Ghost Eaters by Clay McLeod Chapman

If you want classic horror:

  • We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson
  • The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson

Looks great! The single strand was definitely a good call. I bought these patterns a while back as well and this is definitely helping me finally think about starting them!

You should check out Alize Bella Ombre Batik! It’s only one color transition but it’s a 900m long gradient which is really pretty.

I’ve only read the first two so far but they’re so good. And the length is perfect for reading in between larger novels too. How have the later ones held up so far?

Honestly it really depends on how much sun they get/how hot it is. Which means it’s different in summer vs winter. Also very different for each species.

If you have thick fleshy succulents you can wait until they start to wrinkle a bit to water. Or you just go by dryness if soil and water when it’s quite dry throughout.

If you have more flatter leaf succulents it’s a bit harder to tell but they generally like more frequent watering because they store less of them in the leaves.

So yeah, no easy answer. Sorry.
