Finished book three of the Wrexford and Sloane murder mystery + slow-build romance. Still enjoying it! On to book four.
Contemporary romance The Stand-In by Lily Chu was a jaunty romp. Very tropey, but written in a (mostly) realistic way.
Watched episode one of the Amazon Rings of Power adaptation, and that was... ok, rough isn't the right work. Clunky, maybe. Chock-full of exposition, yeah. I do plan to give episode two a try for a couple of reasons. One, some people whose taste I sorta trust have said that it gets better and they like it. Two, the second half of the episode worked better than the first half, and the ending was good. I wouldn't say solid - that would require a better foundation than this episode had. But enough to intrigue me.
And that's that!
