I finished reading Mercutio, and it was amazing! Such a smart, fun, adventurous novel. Mercutio has always been one of my favorite Shakespeare characters, and Kate Heartfield is a favorite author of mine, so this was a match made in heaven (or Faery). It absolutely delivered everything: literary references, tarot themes, medieval Italian history, voyages to the edge of the ocean, fae curses, and queer romance. Yessss.

After yesterday's IV chemo & first round of the heavy duty pills today, thankfully feeling relatively okay(ish), so ventured out for brief walk, wee treat in nearby cafe & read of Hiroshima, 8.15 by Kiyoshi Tanimoto, coming August from Ebury Press.
Written by a Christian pastor it details the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, first person witness testimony. Written in 1947, filed away, considered lost, rediscovered a couple of years ago.

📗 "Bugwatching: The Art, Joy, and Importance of Observing Insects" by Eric R. Eaton, with illustrations by Samantha Gallagher
I saw this book somewhere on the Fediverse and decided to give it a go. I like bugs. I like seeing them and taking their pictures, even though I have no idea what they are and I easily panic when they get too close to me.
This book was 100% joy. Completely wholesome. I've finally found my type of cozy reads.
This guide is written by people who love bugs and their excitement is infectious. There are so many beautiful drawings and photographs of insects, but there are also plenty of pictures of people just being really excited to have spotted a bug. That might sound a little silly, I can't deny it, but it made me happy to see them.
The text mostly covers the basics of bug watching: the why, how, where of it all. Some tips are only relevant for someone in the US, but at least 75% of its content is general enough to be applicable anywhere. It's suitable for beginners and inclusive too. There are parts about what to think about if you're disabled and limited to accessible places or your own home, or what to keep in mind if you're a woman or person of color going out exploring on your own. There's also attention given to indigenous communities and the valuable information they have provided to the field.
The book inspired me to create an iNaturalist account and I've been an excited user of the website since. I love posting pictures of insects, even though my knowledge isn't good enough to identify them (yet). Fortunately the site is stuffed with bug enthusiasts who happily identify them for me. In exchange I enjoy identifying birds for others! What a fun place, it grounds me and helps me cope with the terror of everyday life and the forever stress of climate change. I'm so thankful this book helped me find it. Even if you don't want to add observations or identifications yourself, just browsing everyone's stunning pictures on iNaturalist is a pleasant activity.
Anyway, go watch some bugs! 🐞

Suri stepped into warmth and light — a brief escape from the blizzard outside. Orchids, pastel roses, and carnations surrounded her like fragments of spring. The florist’s hands moved with quiet grace, wrapping beauty against the cold.
*Sometimes warmth isn’t found in weather, but in small kindnesses.*
