I just finished reading "Charm City!" I've become obsessed with Tess, moved on to "Butcher's Hill." I started my Laura Lippman exploration with "Murder Takes a Vacation," then randomly chose "No Good Deeds" followed by "Hush, Hush" before going back to "Baltimore Blues" to find out more!
I thought it was the thing with feathers, but blossoms will do! ❤️
I'm enjoying the diabolical Willow! Eventually someone will figure out what she is up to, someone besides Trina and Kai that is! And I look forward to that. In the meantime, Nina is going to be in a world of hurt from the way she let her darling long lost daughter set her up!
"Magyar and his team fought back on the ground. Knowing he could not win if he stuck to Budapest and other large cities, Magyar has been traveling the country since 2024, visiting small towns and villages, many more than once."

Strikes, boycotts, deliberate non-cooperation with illegitimate exercises of power, and the patient work of organizing across every sector of civil society.

ModPo changed my life too, Laura. Returning to the same poems over and over again is part of the magic. The wonderful people we grow to know as we read the same poems again and again is the other part. Poetry makes me happy.
