Late this month, because late September / early October was taken up by a nasty stomach bug which floored both of us for almost a week. That was not fun. It will take a bit longer for my energy to be back to normal (that's been taking more time since I had mono), but at least my bodily functions are mostly back to normal and my brain's working ( Read more... )

Heh, thanks! Reading is something I can pretty much always do; even when I'm too exhausted for anything else, on most days I'll still be able to read fiction books (except when I'm not, and then I'll reread some of my comfort fics). Also, glad to hear you're enjoying the graphs!

It was awful, I'm so glad that's behind us now. XD The only good thing is that it did give us some new comfort show to watch (we don't usually just browse what's on TV, except when we're ill, and this time we kept ending up on Discovery Channel where we watched, among other things, Find It, Fix It, Flog It, which has been loads of fun), so ... silver lining and all? XD

Sorry you've been sick! My friend had the gastro variant of Covid early in September and it was the worst, I hope that's not what got you!

I read The Wishing Game by Meg Shaffer and really liked it, I'll have to read The Lost City as well! That sounds like such an interesting and well crafted idea.

Thanks! I have no idea what it was, didn't test for covid (stayed home anyway, so ...), but it definitely wasn't fun!

I did like The Wishing Game as well, but even still, this one was so much better. Hope you enjoy it!
