Three books at the bottom:
God's Vengeance, Hearts & Bones, Season's Creepings

Found poem above

Twisted Fruit

The zombie virus
imprisoned interpretations,
killed the idea.
The fertility of horror,
a womb to spread
twisted fruit,
turn the globe,
into a place of bones.

Considering my calculations were out, this is not a day of doubles. A few more added.

#WiHM found poem countdown on last day continues with @theresaderwin.bsky.social. The woman who got me into this horror game!

I am so delighted that after all her health struggles, her novella will be out soon. ❤

First peppermint mocha with oatmilk of the season tonight at B&N while browsing (was yummy!). I love mysteries so I also grabbed this $5 Christmas mystery. Sounds so good!

Also, scoped out some books for holiday reading (many on my list to look for at the library).

Yolanda Sfetsos's review of An Unnatural Life 5/5: When I read that this novella was Murderbot meets To Kill a Mockingbird, I HAD to check it out. 812-3 is a robotnik and he's in prison because he killed a human worker, but he says he didn't do ...

What a great SF novella!! www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

Gravestone inscribed: Alistair Stephen Fabian Mitchell. 13-6-1957, 10-2-2019. Barrister of the Middle Temple. My brain, socialist. My heart, anarchist. My eyes, pacifist. My blood, revolutionary. 

Around the edge, the legend: The only man in British legal history to be convicted of biting a policeman with someone else’s teeth.
