Another month, another unrelenting pummelling of unpleasantness on all levels, capped by potential job loss by the end of summer. This will likely have a direct effect on the number of books reviewed, and the frequency. (I'm updating a day early for reasons related to this.)

For now, reading is still legal, but I'm really not liking what I'm seeing, here - not just from the monsters in power, but from those who swore they'd have the backs of the rest of us and can apparently do little more but frown in mild concern... (Is this too political for a book review site? When the book banners are on the rise and those speaking out are being disappeared, I'd say no, no it's not too political. If anything it's not political enough, and if that's an issue, then these aren't likely to be reviews you'll enjoy anyway.)
