Book Review
Fossil Feud by Maggie North
Oh man, I had a GREAT time with Fossil Feud! Rich in detail, drenched in chemistry and wonderfully, bitingly smart. Ripley is a private paleontologist. She dropped out of her PhD programme after some seriously nefarious shit by her then-boyfriend, Will, and moved from academia into the private sector. At the start of the story, she’s working on an Indigenous-owned ranch in Montana excavating fossils in a partnership with Cara, the ranch owner’s granddaughter. There … Continue reading Fossil Feud by Maggie North
Cover Snark: We Gotta Save That Dog
Welcome back to Cover Snark! From Alicia: I work in a library and I think your site has corrupted my (already corrupt) brain. I pulled this book for a customer recently and was immediately very concerned for the dog. The look on his face. Someone take that dog away from him and find it a new home! Sarah: That dog, which I think is an Australian shepherd, does look like it’s giving the side eye … Continue reading Cover Snark: We Gotta Save That Dog

Caption That Cover: Better Than A Duke Edition
It’s been awhile since we had a Caption That Cover, so let’s fix that, yeah? In the July 17 Books on Sale post, Amanda featured Better Than a Duke by Suzanne Enoch. And we all met…this guy: Meet Beckett Raines, the Marquis of Hentrose, who needs a wife. (Don’t they all.) That’s…quite a facial expression. And, boy, did y’all notice! Tam noticed it first and said: The Marquis of Hentrose has a very punchable face…. He looks … Continue reading Caption That Cover: Better Than A Duke Edition
Friday Videos Love Freshly Ground
I could swear I featured this video in Friday Videos ages ago, but I can’t find it in the archive. Maybe I talked about it on Twitter or something. (Note: I don’t deadname anyone except Twitter.) I swear my brain is more foggy soup than usual (I mean, I know why but OOF) and maybe it’s started making things up, too? I mean, why not. Maybe it’s reverse manifesting. Anyway, this is South African group … Continue reading Friday Videos Love Freshly Ground
