I sped my way through T.J. Klune's The Bones Beneath My Skin this week. Boy, I did not see that mixed-genre plot coming! Which is interesting, because the last book I read of his was In The Lives Of Puppets, and that was also largely sci-fi. The Bones was apparently something he wrote in 2017, but it was shelved due to weirdness with his then-current agent. It's nice that he finally published it. It was well-written overall (I LOVED Art), though the couple of mentions and then all-out step-by-step explicit sex scene felt kind of out-of-place. They leaned really heavily on "romance/erotica" when the novel was more sci-fi overall.

Now I'm reading the 5th Dungeon Crawler Carl book. Oh, how I have missed these characters! They are such a colorful bunch. :D

TV-wise, we're watching S2 of The Pitt on Hulu. What a fantastic show that is. I only wish there were more episodes! HalfshellHusband and I also watched People You Meet On Vacation (Netflix) over the weekend, and that was honestly pretty good.

In my private garage and late-night viewing, I'm in S2 of Beef (Netflix), which is not anywhere as good as S1, and I've crossed into S3 of Arrested Development. I also just finished Dublin Murders (BritBox), which was really gripping but also a little frustrating. I wish the ending had been happier, though I can't say that it was unrealistic. I might go back to watching Euphoria on Hulu next, or (more likely) I'll stumble onto something else on BritBox. Still waiting for AppleTV to put out S3 of Silo so I can do a short-term subscription for it and the most recent season of Slow Horses. It's too much to hope for a third season of Severance anytime soon...

And for Amazon? WHAT is taking so long re: the third season of The Devil's Hour? I need that yesterday!
