![]() ![]() The wind howled, high and whistling, accompanied by the cracking of ice and tree branches. Win or lose, he's destined to end up alone, not even fit to live in his brother's shadow, never mind stand on his own in the light. If Taniel is going to stop him, though, the price will be just as steep. Until Vosgi went too far, and Taniel was forced to turn them in-a betrayal that Vosgi has never forgiven and will exact revenge for by destroying everything Taniel cares about, one violent death at a time. Together, they knew magic better than anyone, could do spells that no one else would dare even study. He'd thought he'd found that in Vosgi, the beautiful, enchanting man he met while studying magic at a remote monastery. To be more than 'the poor orphaned boy' and 'so and so's brother.' Just once he wants to be seen as him, not defined by someone else, always an easily overlooked shadow. All Taniel has ever wanted was to stand out. ![]() ![]() ![]() Ugly Loveis vintage Colleen Hoover – a book that pulls you in with characters you must know everything about. ![]() Ugly Love Quotes: Check out the best Ugly Love quotes!

![]() In the Maids’ commentary on Penelopes’ childhood, they compare their own lineage, contrasting their slave and peasant parents with Penelope’s royal ones. Her mother, meanwhile, was neglectful and cold. ![]() According to stories Penelope heard growing up, Icarius tried to kill Penelope in infancy by throwing her into the sea, but Penelope was saved by a flock of ducks. Penelope begins her account with her childhood, stating that she was born in Sparta to King Icarius and a Naiad mother.

Penelope's account begins with her deciding from the afterlife to tell her side of the famous story of her marriage to Odysseus after thousands of years. Penelope's first person narrative is a mostly chronological account starting at her birth, while the Maids provide commentary on her narrative. ![]() ![]() The story is told in retrospect, with Penelope and the Maids in the afterlife reflecting on the events that occurred centuries before.

What was your initial inspiration for The Last True Poets of the Sea? It’s family story, a love story, and an adventure story all centered around the hunt for a long lost shipwreck - and it’s full of fish puns. If you were to describe The Last True Poets of the Sea in one sentence, what would it be? Hello and thank you so much for having me, and for having written such beautiful things about TLTPotS! About me: I’m a writer living in Philadelphia, and I have a rabbit named Ned who’s currently flopped beside me. Hi Julia, thanks so much for joining me! Can you tell us a little about yourself? ![]() ![]() Julia Drake, the author of the absolutely wonderful The Last True Poets of the Sea, was kind enough to answer a few questions about her, her book and writing! I read The Last True Poets of the Sea as the April book with my Sapphic Book Club, and we all shared our thoughts here if you want to check it out! I absolutely adored this book with all of my heart and would really recommend you check it out! Sasha ❤ ![]() ![]() I can be choosy when it comes to certain retellings and Arthurians fall into that realm for me. When I first picked up Legendborn I was excited, but skeptical. ![]() I’ve always been weary over the years whenever magic beyond Merlin’s, specifically, is involved in tales of Arthur. Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table I guess a part of me is just kind of sick of them. This is a chosen one-eqsue narrative that needed to be precisely that. It is only the nuanced acuity of the treatise that made this twist brilliant. You see, were this twist not entrenched in the deeper commentaries of the book, I would have hated it. What’s worse, is I feel horribly conflicted over my distaste for it to the point that I’m still giving this book five stars despite finding it irritating. The all at once speed with which it happened was one thing. What bugged me, though, was the twist at the end. Sure, there was a half-baked almost love-triangle, but given the source material, I’m actually fine with it. In every single other way, this book was basically perfect. ![]() And truthfully, there’s really only one thing I didn’t care for. I would love nothing more than to say that I adored every single piece of this book. This is both a brilliant…and an unfortunate thing. And while Legendborn is certainly a story based around this story, it is in no way what you expect it to be. There is something utterly captivating about the boy king, his gallant knights of the round table, and the wizard who advised him. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The Wise Decision Maker Show is produced by Disaster Avoidance Experts and Dr. Download The Blindspots Between Us: How to Overcome Unconscious Cognitive Bias and Build Better Relationships. ![]() "The Blindspots Between Us: How to Overcome Unconscious Cognitive Bias and Build Better Relationships" is available at The Blindspots Between Us: How to Overcome Unconscious Cognitive Bias and Build Better Relationships.
