I finished reading The Chromatic Fantasy which I still heartily recommend, and still in a graphic novels mood, I finally got around to a reread of Nimona I've been meaning to do for at least two years. It still holds up!
Non-fiction, I'm still working on Mary Queen of Scots by Antonia Fraser. It's interesting, but at about the halfway mark, I'm very aware that I've passed her period of (relative) stability and it's only going to get bleaker and bleaker from here. And this is a long book, so it's going to be at least 300 pages more of dense unhappiness. I'm wondering if I should take a break and read something a little lighter.
I want to pick up another bit of fiction, but despite having four books from the library right now, I don't feel in the mood for any of them.
Nimona <333 Thanks for reminding me of this graphic novel, I need a gift for a friend's birthday in a few weeks and I remember that they mentioned wanting to buy the paper version, it'll be the perfect gift :D
