Happy Halloween! I dressed up as a fanfic character from The Mirror Visitor series. This is a picture of the almost completed Ophelia scarf I wore.
Thought I had read this one but it‘s not on my shelf. ETA Diane Duane has yet to go awry. Another excellent voyage with an underlying theme regarding the essential nature of play.
A wonderful dive into an alternate Hollywood filled with urban fae, olde world bargains, world myths, moral codes and references to the Hays Office.
By the author of Elatsoe, and, A Snake Falls to Earth 😊
A friend is making a picture of Proginoskes and Sporos for me. I reread the story today for a specific description of Sporos. I forgot how he and Progo were physical and temperamental opposites.
“But Kirk wasn‘t naive enough to believe the people who held power in the Federation were infallible.”
Whole series read! At the time I started this series the belief a computer would never be able to compete with a human go player was solid. There is a documentary film out about the AI that did defeat a master. It was release @ 2018. Worth seeing.
Nice combination of characters. Chekhov on his first bridge duties, Uhura playing a key role on an away mission, Sulu as an “active” character, etc.
When I first tried to read this series, years and years ago, I couldn‘t. I literally could not hold all the images in my head and still follow the story. I held on to the books though and one day I found I could read it and it was delightful!
Our current read aloud. A gentle book for ungentle times. Perhaps when these children grow up they‘ll each have a bit of Duane in them.
The stone men are people who knew how to make shelters on the land, how to construct buildings suited to a particular place.
A motif from the above mentioned book. Now valentines bookmarks for my class:)
While I have this in book form I listened to an audio edition. Worth every hour.
Listening to the audiobook version. I realize that if I am to make any progress in handwork and reading I‘ll need to do both at the same time.
Book 2 for 2024:)
34 books read this year. I know I started so many more and definitely added to my tbr!
Weekend reading. Wondering how I can use this as a read aloud for my students.
