  1. Personal Appendix N

    I've been reading titles from Appendix N and other lists of inspirational fiction from different role-playing games this year. There's been some really good and some stuff that wasn't quite my cup of tea, but definitely got me thinking about what stories influence me when I start prepping situations to bring to the table for my own groups. I was also inspired by some lists from Traverse Fantasy, Binary Star Games, and Githyanki Diaspora. Dystopias and Resistance Fiction Okay, so I'm a […]

  6. Aftermarket Afterlife by Seanan McGuire

    Aftermarket Afterlife is the 13th book in Seanan McGuire's InCryptid series of urban fantasy stories about the Price family of cryptozoologists. It is far from the point you should start reading the series, despite being an excellent entry in the series. Mary Dunlavy has been a recurring character since the opening volume of the series, the ghost acting as babysitter to the Price children for a few generations at the point when the series begins. This is the first time she's been a viewpoint […]

  7. Because of the new book coming out Tuesday centering my favorite character in the series, I started catching up with the last couple InCryptid books.

    10% through Aftermarket Afterlife and really liking Mary as narrator. Also, the end of this drive I'm sure is going to see some stuff hit the fan.

  12. Oof. I've spent some considerable time these last few days decrypting, sorting, renaming and tagging the book I've accrued on Kobo through Humble Bundle.

    The #TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles comics were the most work, since converting those to cbz archives and joining all the two-page spreads.

    And I just now finished the near-complete #Discworld #novel collection by #TerryPratchett and #SeananMcGuire's very much incomplete #InCryptid and #OctoberDaye series.

    So now I just have to actually read 'em.

  17. Seanan McGuire/InCryptid fans! It might not be up yet for all Libby/Overdrive users, but the latest InCryptid novel, Aftermarket Afterlife, has a sample already posted for my library even though I can't place a hold yet for the book. So you might want to go check if you're also waiting on the release?

    Just pointing that out before I go straight to reading byeeee

  19. Next up, my partner is encouraging me to read one of his favorite authors, #SeananMcGuire. So we’re going to start with the #Incryptid series first. #today #books

  22. Taking a break from my #Discworld re-read to devour @seananmcguire 's newest #Incryptid novel because I love this family of cryptozoologists so much.

  23. Continuing my 2022 #books thread.
    During the summer and early fall, I binge read the entire #OctoberDaye series by Seanan McGuire. It helped me through stressful times. In addition to chosen family, it also has main character who has a talent for chaos (in the best way) which was oddly comforting.

    I then went on to binge read McGuire's #Incryptid series. Talk about found families! I liked the most recent books in the series the best because I identified more with the characters.

  31. #Mood from #SpelunkingThroughHell by #seananmcguire : "All of us are more bacteria by volume than we are the people we think we are. We're basically swamps that decided to go for a walk one day & haven't figured out that it's a ridiculous thing for a swamp to do." #amreading #incryptid

  34. @Shelter1971 if you are referring to the Seanan McGuire #InCryptid crossroads … are you caught up on the series? Or can I not make a snarky remark about that family?

  37. @hsl I pretty much pre-order/pre-reserve #TobyDaye books. Took me 3 or 4 books in to get into #incryptid . There’s one other series where I liked the first book, but not any of the subsequent ones.
