I have kidney stones and was in the hospital all last week. No books have been read, my bed and Zofran as well as my urologist are my best friends right now. Also knitting and cuddles with my cats.

I’ve listened to a little bit more of Spinning Silver though, but… yeah…

‘A Night In Lonesome October.’ Roger Zelazny. Short and easy read. 31 chapters, one for each day of the month. Jack the Ripper and Baron von Frankenstein are neighbors, and the book is narrated by Jack’s talking dog.

one of the all-time greats, and an annual re-read for me.

Sorry to be off topic, but I just wanted to see how you were doing. Sorry to hear you were at the hospital, hope you’re feeling better now!

Eh. I’m doing as well as I can. It’s been a lot. My health stuff is more of a nuisance at this point. Thankfully @Arthur has helped a bit. I have surgery soon though thankfully!

I’ve been reading Noise: A flaw in human judgement. Except I got sick, slept lots, and it seems the book will be returned (on libby) only 2/3rds completed.

'The Devil’s Playground by Craig Russell. Perfect for spooky season. The search for the lost final print of the scariest horror movie ever made leads to murder, blackmail, cults, voodoo, and sabotage in 1920s Hollywood.

That synopsis reminds me of The Ninth Gate a little.

Loved that movie, even with its flaws
