Read it twice and decided it was silly to keep getting it from the library, so bought a copy *while at book club*.

I think you will also really enjoy Thornhedge! Where Nettle and Bone was reminiscent of a dark fairy tale Thornhedge is a literal dark retelling of Sleeping Beauty as only T Kingfisher could. If you havenāt read A Sorceress Comes To Call you will probably also enjoy that one too!

There are a few books that I always think of when I think of Anne McCaffrey and this is one of them.

I just finished that one a few weeks agoāI really enjoyed it as well! Even though itās much more ārollicking fantasyā she still managed to slide in some creepy monsters š

Yes, a number of them but certainly not all of them yet! I have a few more older ones already sitting in my TBR. Sheās an instabuy for me every time a new one comes out though.

100% agreeāThornhedge was one of the first I picked up but she very quickly became instabuy for me.

Yes! When viewed from 1000ft, there are broad similarities in our journeys. Get closer in, though, and I have not accidentally killed any previous datefriends, nor am I immortal. š
Sometimes the story that happens is the story we didnāt know we needed.

I am trying to be patient but it is hard. š
I did get a little preview when my characterās bodyguard got her twinās debrief. I am mostly just stuck on how awesome everyone is and how lucky I was to get to play this game with them.

For a moment on day 3 I thought Iād run out her story a few hours too soon but then everyone elseās drama caught up with her so it landed a nice bittersweet ending with a hopeful tint.

It was a pretty amazing experience! Halfway through day 2 I thought I knew exactly where she was going with an absolutely broken heart after a wonderful screaming/sobbing scene, and then one interaction that afternoon changed everything.

The moment when larp magic took me from playing to find out how my character was going to die/go evil (my loose assumption about her probable direction going in) to giving her a path to self acceptance/validation and independence. Definitely got unexpectedly personal in there!

It was the Mooney Bin Dresden Files 1923. There were 105 players and ~15 staff I believe. They just finished the second run yesterday and I desperately want to hear stories from my character twin for the March run.
Iāve never played one that big before and itās wild how plot ripples around!

Yeah, itās a damn good quote.

Me, skimming bluesky: wait, wasnāt Emma Goldman one of the Dresden charactersā¦.? OH ITāS BETH ššš

Good! Maybe she didnāt actually notice me and I can back away slowly. Seems safer.

ā¦.but I am less likely to be crawling, screaming, sobbing, begging my dead girlfriend to forgive me.
At least I hope.
