Petsitting this week and I have never met a dog so excited to get home from a walk. Literally jumping on her hind legs and rolling around on the ground in ecstasy

By any other name, you know?

Mistborn: The Final Empire - A solid 2 Extremely compelling relationship between the two main POV characters and a fun twist on chosen one narratives. But it took nearly half the book for our only female lead to speak to someone who wasn't a man. C'mon

I have to read or watch 30 pieces of fantasy media that I have never consumed before for a class so see y'all in December
