The following recently occurred in my household, Gentle Reader.
AB: You know the new Wet Hot American Summer is out, so we must commence the rewatch.
Gail: Chronological order.
AB: But don’t you-
Gail: Chronological order.
AB: -think that-
Gail: Chronological order.

Gail: Chronological order.

Gail: See.
And for those of you who ask where to find a list of my books Parasolverse chronological order (with dates), here it is on the Wikia.
IN DIGITAL, PRINT & AUDIO!
The Sumage Solution: San Andreas Shifters #1 by G. L. Carriger, now also in audio.
Contemporary m/m paranormal romance featuring a snarky mage and a gruff werewolf. Hella raunchy. Super dirty. Very very fun. Spin off of Marine Biology.
Can a gentle werewolf heal the heart of a smart-mouthed mage?
“The characters themselves were funny and quirky but that added a lot for me. I also thought the characters were relatable even if you aren’t an LGBTQ individual, as I said before good characters and romance to me is all the same, it’s undeniable that the characters in this book had a dynamic and loving relationship …. I felt invested in them and the story had Carriger’s hallmark quirkyness which I loved.”

Delighted Reader says of Changeless:
“Alexia is still her confident, capable, abrasive self that only her husband and a few friends see value in…. I loved seeing her in action and on a mission…”
