I miss con reports
Feb. 24th, 2026 05:00 amI didn't realize it's been over a year since I posted. Huh.
That said, I miss con reports. Escapade was this past weekend and I couldn't go (reasons blah, blah, blah) but I hope everyone had a blast and I'd really love an old fashion con report overview, or was that really mostly a live journal thing?
In other news, The Mole got me the Heated Rivalry books - the first two? Are there more? and I'm working through them. I can't watch the series but it keeps popping up here and there so I was curious. She got me the old fashioned paperbacks (I don't have an e-reader like Kindle) and I have neither cable nor a TV, so it's more curiosity than anything. But it does read like fan fiction which I find hilarious. Neither of the main characters has really caught my interest and enemies to lovers isn't really my trope but I'm gonna read them both just cause. I'm also painfully aware I need to up the magnification on my reading glasses again, since I'm struggling a bit and the print is not particularly small.
I am mildly surprised at how explicit the books are. I've really not bought many new books in the recent years and mainstream romances were my thing only briefly, when my mother was reading them. I get that this is more of an erotica niche but still...fan fiction in my brain for this level.
I have been re-reading Katherine Kurtz's novels. I'd forgotten kind of, how much I enjoyed them and found to my delight, I still do and the Mole, again, graciously provided me with hard copies of the three main novels because the type face on my old paperbacks really was a challenge to my eyes. They'd also been revised slightly since that original release and it was fun to see what an where. Nothing huge - no major plot points were change. Mostly a freshening of some dialogue as near as I can tell. But I still find them to be marvelous so I may be going through my bookcase for some other forgotten favorites.
