I might have developed an appreciation for entomology but this guy was not welcome in the car today! We believe it‘s a hawk wasp (huntsman hawk) and apparently can be aggressive. With a sting the most painful of wasps (so he can immobilise huntsman) He was not welcome to buzz at my head!

KAO Yikes!! 2h
TEArificbooks Nope, I‘m out 2h
ImperfectCJ My friend's son had a goal of being stung by one of these (we called them tarantula hawks in Utah), just so he could see what it felt like. He was about 10 at the time. We had cicada-killer wasps in Massachusetts. They're supposed to be mostly docile, but I still kept my distance. I would be very anxious if either of these approached me. 2h

Darklunarose @ImperfectCJ I admit to not being impressed it was buzzing round my head. I saw the tarantula wasps when someone online thought this might be one. Very very similar 1h
Darklunarose @TEArificbooks I may have said something along the line of “stop the car. We need to stop the car now!” 1h

Meet our newest outdoor critter. This Blue Tongue has decided she is going to share the back yard….and the cat food. Sometimes she grabs the bowl with her mouth and tries to drag it away! My youngest has named her Petra. She is not young either, she is really a large bluey

It‘s the end of the year and I‘m finally feeling like I can sit down and read a book. This year has been so busy with finishing school, going on a month long trip to Scotland, getting a classroom, having to leave my class due to being sick, best friend having my god daughter and I‘m sure I‘m missing some key events 😂
With that being said I‘m excited to be back and participating in one of my fav litsy traditions! Here‘s my #bookspin Dec list 🥰

109/150 I didn't like this one as much as the first book, the humor was pulled back in favor of a more mainstream kind of sci-fi adventure. Isaac learns more about his past while looking for the person who stole the best idea in the universe, while also dealing with an intergalactic war, the destruction of his robot partner/lover, and the return of a villain thought despatched in the first book. The book does commit one unpardonable sin, ⬇️

RamsFan1963 ⬆️ it ends on a major cliffhanger, a catastrophic event that changes the entire universe of the storyline, and there is no book 3 to discover how things turn out!! I hope the author is planning a third book soon because you can't drop a bombshell like that and not finish the story. 3.5/5 1mo

Help! I‘ve been in a reading slump for over 2 months. I miss reading but I also don‘t have any motivation to pick up a book. Every book I‘ve tried to pick up either didn‘t sound interesting, it was predictable, flat out boring, or I just couldn‘t focus. What did you do to get over your reading slump? Also, any book recommendations are always appreciated ❤️

Author Joe Hill is easily one of my favorite horror writers. And why wouldn‘t he be — he‘s the son of Stephen King! I‘ve read all of his novels and short story collections, so I was excited when I learned from Joe‘s newsletter that his latest short story, Ushers, was available on Amazon‘s First Reads for the month of October. ?? (Not in Litsy database yet.)

The Flower House by Nicky Black

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It has a great sense of foreboding throughout which compelled me to keep turning the pages. The characters are all very complex, some of them not very likeable. The plot is a gripping one. I love dual timeline stories set in older properties, involving families and their secrets - this one certainly fulfilled my wishes in all parameters. Highly recommended. #TBC on Facebook

I Well I need the book now! I listened and laughed!

Sci-fi comedy!

Absurd B-movie level fun!! Tina is a winning beauty contest contestant who is disqualified as she is Canadian and an illegal alien. This garners the attention of the real aliens among us and the madcap ludicrous hijinks commence.

Enough laughs to warrant a relistening and short enough to accommodate multiple readings.
