I binged the first season and the first few episodes of the second a couple of weeks ago, and found it sufficiently interesting that I decided to write a review of Season 1 and put it up on [community profile] ladybusiness. Check it out, if you are so inclined. :)

I wrote a book review for [community profile] ladybusiness: some thoughts on Buried Heart by Kate Elliott, the final book in my best beloved Court of Fives series.

There are no spoilers in that review, but if you've read it and want to have a spoiler laden discussion of all the twists and turns and that ending, bring all your thoughts right here.

My latest TBR book review for [community profile] ladybusiness went up last night, for Luck in the Shadows by Lynn Flewelling. I enjoyed it, although I also feel like the last thing I need is another series to read. Why don't people write good standalone books anymore?

Also, sick. :P Just in time for the holidays, yay!

Today, over on [community profile] ladybusiness, I reviewed Indexing by Seanan McGuire. Take a look!

I was tagged for this meme by [personal profile] renay over on [community profile] ladybusiness.

1. What book have you been unable to finish? - No god but God by Reza Aslan. I started this book a couple of years back, and as often happens for me with non-fiction, I stalled out about halfway through, most likely because I got a new fiction book that I wanted to read more. I've picked it up a couple of times since, but once I lose my momentum on non-fiction reading, it's difficult to get it back.

More questions and answers under the cut! )

10. Who do you tag? - As always, entirely optional, but this time I'll poke [personal profile] violacea, [personal profile] lassarina, and [personal profile] umadoshi.

For our special celebration of Kate Elliott and her books, I wrote a review of her most recent, Poisoned Blade. It should be no surprise that I loved it.

[community profile] ladybusiness is also running a giveaway for this book as well as Court of Fives, the first book in the series, so make sure to check that out if you're interested!

I just posted a article on the second season of Agent Carter to [community profile] ladybusiness. The second paragraph includes minor CA: Civil War spoilers, and of course many spoilers for the season throughout. Check it out!

My first official post for [community profile] ladybusiness is a look at the first five episodes of Agent Carter Season 2. Short version: a lot of fun, some great new female characters, maybe not perfect, but I'm enjoying the heck out of it.

I should probably have linked this here before it went out of date, with two new episodes this week, but better late than never? ;) I expect I'll have more to say once the show is done.

Big news!

So now it can be told: after many years of being a semi-regular contributor and helper behind the scenes, I have officially joined the team at [community profile] ladybusiness as a contributing editor!

Here's the official announcement.

I am really excited about this -- as I've mentioned often, I've long wanted to get back into writing more meta and criticism, and [community profile] ladybusiness is the perfect venue for me to do so. It's a commitment and a larger audience, both of which I find inspiring, but not such a huge commitment or audience that I expect it to be daunting.

Of course, I will continue to keep posting here, too -- personal stuff, fanfiction, politics and other non-fandom content, quick thoughts that don't make for a full essay, etc. And I'll link everything I post there, but if you like the posts I write on fandom and feminism, and you don't follow [community profile] ladybusiness already, I definitely recommend you check it out.

Many many thanks to [personal profile] renay and [personal profile] bookgazing, along with the rest of the team, for allowing me to join them! :D I look forward to working with you all.
