I know I don't really talk about the "life" part of "Life and Books" anymore, but, well. Today is not the day I'm going to change that, so let me tell you instead about the games I played (or attempted to play)! Much to no one's surprised, I'm still playing Baldur's Gate 3. I'm currently close to wrapping up an all druids run, which has been very fun. Druids are so strong in combat (in this...

Charlie is an advice columnist with an increasing number of questions about supernaturals, so when he runs into an old vampire acquaintance, he makes a deal to learn more, under the pretense that it's for his thesis.

I'm a little late with this post because I've been worried and stressed and tired and just forgot last weekend. But I'm here now! So what have I done since my last update... I started listening to a new (to me) podcast called Midnight Burger. It's about a diner that travels through time and space. I watched Galavant on Hulu. It was fun! Made me laugh. From what I understand, it was supposed...
I reread this book recently, and also read the next two books, and I decided to rewrite my review. I'll be honest, it's a lot less work for me to use the same post that already has all the tags and whatnot than to make an entire new post 😅 But I'm enjoying the series! They're interesting queer YA shifter books. I wanted to talk about this one again before posting my reviews for the next two....
I promised this post a few months ago, and here I am, finally delivering! Honestly, it's just a list of books I've enjoyed that happen to have nonbinary characters. In some of these, it's really discussed and a big part of things, in others it's very casual and maybe just mentioned offhandedly or implied. (In real life, they/them pronouns do not automatically mean someone is nonbinary, but for...

As usual, I don't have any good life stuff to talk about, so let's see, what else do I have... I played something other than BG3 (a rare occurrence nowadays), a little game called Lovingly Evil. I already reviewed it, so you can check that out if you're interested. Tbh, some things didn't quite work for me, but the two romances I did were cute. I've been watching Rapunzel's Tangled...
