January 2025 Book#5
Hard to believe that book with that cover would have many triggers: physical/sexual abuse. London XlX, family try to survive their extreme poverty environment with an abuse, alcoholic father who try to sell his daughter. Sylvia try to escape this world, try to find true love. My opinion is that story try to romanticize John‘s behavior who could be seen as a controlling person to justify his love for Sylvia? Abrupt happy ending?

Perry Rhodan 259: Der unheimliche Roboter: Perry Rhodan-Zyklus "Die Meister der Insel" | H.G. Ewers

pick

(1966) “The Uncanny Robot“

Last episode, the Terrans captured a Tefroder ship that had been damaged in battle, and also met a new ally, a psychic robot named -- I kid not -- “Lucky Log.“ As Perry and crew move the ship to safe place for further investigation, they get caught up by an automatic wreck-collection system that transports them into Andromeda's forbidden zone. This one is packed with action and incident and does not disappoint.

Bookwomble Ok, the robot called Lucky Log is definitely a thing, but can we talk about the giant space mouse for a moment!? 😂 1w

swynn @Bookwomble Sure! That's Gucky the Mouse-beaver. Technically, his species was eventually called “Ilt“ -- that's I as in India, l as in Lima, tee -- but the text continues to call him a “Mausbiber.“ He was introduced way back in episode #18, and has been a series regular ever since. He is a telepath and telekinetic. He's also a trickster character and often provides comic relief. 1w

Bookwomble So, now I want a crossover movie of Gucky the Mausbiber and Rocket Raccoon! Naturally, they'll start with a misunderstanding and be antagonists, gradually realise that they're both on the same side and team up to defeat the villain, wise cracking as they go. Now, who would make a good villain for them! 🤔😁 1w

swynn @Bookwomble Nobody less powerful than Galactus, of course. 😆 1w

She did it again, threw in twists at the end that you don‘t see coming! A little Cathy Bates Misery type craziness. I read this in less than 24 hours. Book #18 in 2025

Last book in this trilogy. I really enjoyed it and I will these characters. It‘s a historical fiction/cozy mystery with interesting characters and even Arthur Conan Doyle is amongst those characters. 3.8⭐️

Nebula Awards Showcase 2007 | Mike Resnick

Book #18 of 2024: “Nebula Awards Showcase: 2007”

Picked this one up at a bar in Mexico 😂 It‘s a collection of sci fi/fantasy poetry and short stories that were chosen as the year‘s best (17 years ago). It was interesting—a wide variety of styles and themes. Most were good. The last one I found unbearably boring.

Eyes on You: A Ghost Story | Steven Jenkins

‘She‘s always watching.‘

Matthew and Aimee have found the perfect flat. After settling in, they realize they‘re not alone.

This was a decent ghost story. Not very scary, but does have some creepy moments.
