Finished this masterpiece by @jamesloganauthor.bsky.social on Sunday. Devoured it in 4 days. The dialogue is just fantastic and I could vividly picture everything. Book 3 can't come quick enough!

Our beloved cat Leo is gone, hit by a vehicle. Leo was a brilliant person. Insatiably curious, always eager for the next adventure, eternally optimistic. He made my life better every single day, and we thought he’d have so many more days. I don’t have the words to describe how much I will miss him πŸ’”

Vinay reviews James Logan's highly anticipated sequel of The Silverblood Promise, THE BLACKFIRE BLADE:

"A sequel that leans on the adventurous strength of its predecessor while not being afraid to go dark and emotional as needed"

When There Are Wolves Again is out in the UK today! I wrote something about the book, and keeping going, and some personal stuff I dithered over but, well, it's been A Year.

I'm so glad the book is out there and thank you so much to everyone who has supported it 🐺🀍

So, the next book to read will be The Blackfire Blade by James Logan. This is book 2 in the series. I'll be reading an eARC, which I received from Netgalley. I hope that it's as good as The Silverblood Promise. And, if it is, I'll need to get a paperback copy of it. πŸ˜€ @jamesloganauthor.bsky.social

This is a beautiful novel that charts the lives and experiences of two women across past, present and future as they fight for our environment's future. Heartbreaking but ultimately - and importantly - hopeful. Also, wolves. 🐺

Confirming E. J. Swift’s standing as a writer of urgent, beautifully crafted eco-fiction... I’m left with a much-needed feeling of optimism.

New Adventures in Hi-Fi is the best REM album and that is a hill I will - if not die on - at least put up a very stubborn defence before reluctantly retreating. (Also, I agree about Losing My Religion. I'm not sure it would even make my top 20 REM songs.)
