February is here and my part of the state got our FIRST snow of the year (2nd of the season) but, of course, climate change isn’t real…
What is real is BOOKS! Lots of books, comics, graphic novels, manga, plotlines scribbled on the back of that meeting-which-should-have-been-an-email agenda!
Whatcha all reading?
Whisper in the Dark By Darcey Burke, the 2nd in her Victorian Raven & Wren series. Hadrian is a bit toooo good for a mid 19th century man but I’ll allow it because he has beautiful eyes. 
The Floating World by Axie Oh More YA and I’m floundering a bit since so many YA cliches are already presenting: orphaned character, character’s family is about to be killed, rigid social lines, character decides to show off and puts others in danger… you get the drift.
Khadaji was one of the earlier members of SDMB, and he was well-known as a kindly person who always had something encouraging to say, particularly in the self-improvement threads. He was also a voracious, omnivorous reader, who started these threads 'way back in the Stone Age of 2005. Consequently, when he suddenly and quite unexpectedly passed away in January 2013, we decided to rename this thread in his honor and to keep his memory, if not his ghost, alive.
