I can also give a short bookish update. I haven't read too much since last time but my fingers have informed me that they want all the blood to dry before I do more stitching [slight exaggeration for comic effect].

In a shocking turn of events, I have read only one whole posh murder book:

The Detection Club - Ask A Policeman

That Golden age round robin "no but I am right" anthology/thingamajingie sounds annoying even without having read it tbh.

Laughing very much at the restorative effect of Gogol the movie on consumption value of trashy m/m. That book also sounds like it regurgitated things indiscriminately (and Vicars is also a very Cat Sebastian thing, on top of kittens diabetes, fyi).

I remain in admiration of the fact that Habsburg literature has its own list in your reviews. Please never change.

Kujau put AH in brass letters on each diary, only - depending on the source he either couldn't read Fraktur himself or couldn't find As - so he took Fs meaning lots of people had a supposedly Hitler diary in their hands with a huge FH on it and went...so what?
I lost it about here XD Fraktur as the ultimate litmus paper!

Imperator features the sentence "You have always served best by sucking cock" which did evoke some weird emotions in me
Did this like, have any other meaning besides referencing the person's blowjob competences? CAN it possibly have a different meaning? I've been thinking about this since yesterday, please end my misery.

I tried but it was hopeless

why should I?
No, you see, they are an evil organisation that wants to take over the world or at least Rome and the lady in question has used her blowjob and related competences to persuade men to do what she wants/what the evil organisation needs/occasionally to marry her and then dying tragically and soon after leaving her everything in his will.
I mean it is pulp. Definitely.

For some reason I am disappointed with this explanation.

Would you be less disappointed if I told you that everyone in the secret evil organisation is a reborn Roman emperor, the lady in question is a reborn wife of Nero (the brutally murdered artist was reborn Nero) and the group's goal is to restart the Roman empire and then have world dominon?
