Introducing a 4-book fantasy/scifi series by Rachael Greeves. It is available on Amazon in the Kindle Store: Adopted at birth when her Iranian father and Nigerian mother were killed in a car crash, Maisewith Reems was raised in a strict environment as an only child, her only nurturer, her nanny. Jadith, her adoptive mother, is a neuroscientist, and her father, Jedd Reems, a specialist in artificial intelligence. They lead her to believe she is very flawed, requiring many brain surgeries beginning at age three. With the Reems, she escaped the dying Earth at age six, and lived on the planet Costra, one of three habitable planets of a binary star system. Book one begins on Maisewith’s 18th birthday when she finds herself alone on a frozen moon with temperatures so low she will freeze to death in minutes if she doesn’t find shelter. Inside the moon’s mountain is a huge geodic cavern, lit and heated by crystals of various colors. Fortunate to find her way inside, she discovers a community of golden-furred, human-like beings, who call themselves Laeperians, and one blue-eyed blond boy. Finally, through challenges, travails, and danger as she travels through space and visits various worlds, she learns important truths about her existence and finds her purpose in life. This series is for adults, 18 and over.

Just another mass shooting overnight. We should be getting used to them by now. I hope we are not.

This quote made me smile: "It's like where do babies come from: when and idea and a laptop love each other very, very much, a book comes out." — Sloane Crowley

"He leads with integrity. That's how he won his first Senate race as an underdog, and how he was already known as a statesman in the Senate by the time I got there 25 years ago.

"He's a true patriot. Joe Biden has always worked overtime to do right by his family and put his country first.

"He is one of America's finest presidents. 15 million new jobs. Capping the cost of insulin. Bringing manufacturing back to our shores. Investing billions to defend against climate change. Any one of these would be the crowning achievement for another administration. But my friend Joe didn't just stop at one -- he reminds us every day that there's more work to do to make America a better, fairer, stronger country." — Chuck Schumer

I agree.

We should be afraid.
"Yesterday, Raw Story reported that Ivan Raiklin, Trump’s self-declared “Secretary of Retribution” has compiled a “Deep State target list” of 350 people he wants to see arrested and punished for “treason” if Trump is reelected. The list includes Democratic and Republican elected officials, journalists he considers to be Trump’s enemies, U.S. Capitol Police officers, and witnesses against Trump in his impeachment trials and the hearings concerning the events of January 6, 2021.

Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) told Raw Story: “His hit list is a vigilante death warrant for hundreds of Americans and a clear and present danger to the survival of American democracy and freedom.” The Trump campaign did not respond to requests for comment. Raiklin said the list was just the beginning. “This is the scratching of the surface of who is going to be criminalized for their treason, okay?” —Heather Cox Richardson.

Be aware, beware! They call it a silent killer.

When dangerous heat waves strike, what happens inside the human body can become a life-or-death battle decided by just a few degrees.

Still caught in the afterglow of the book I just finished, wrapped in the character's lives. Highly recommend this book: Love and Other Consolation Prizes, by Jamie Ford one of my favorite authors.
