Stitch & Bitch - January 2026

And it was good. I liked it. I think it had good things to say in a very almost like parable way.

I found it to be pretty informative because I hadn't really followed this topic before, but I think anybody who has regularly been reading Dr. O's stuff, he's he's very prolific online. you'll probably know most of this already.

I did I did enjoy this though and it was it was fun. I read it in like two days and would like to read more.

The first book in that series I really enjoyed. It's called Morbidly Yours.

It was such a popcorn read. I have no regrets, but I don't know who the heck I would recommend this to. Like I feel like if you're really into the literary monster references, I wouldn't recommend it because it's just not accurate enough.

So yeah I am liking it. it I feel like it has a very slow start. you really just don't know what kind of book it's going to be until you get to the halfway point, which is about where I am.

I was going to read Scotch on the Rocks. I skimmed like 50% of it and said, "Hell no."

It feels very much like a reread for me because I already experienced the story with the second season of the anime, but I keep reading the manga because I need that dose of the Apothecary Diaries.

And I liked it. It has a real potty mouth, though. It reads very much like a Buzzfeed article.

I stayed up until 1:00 on a week night to finish reading this book. I was that obsessed with it. I have I have no regrets.

So it was compellingly readable. It's actually not that long of a novel either. and yeah, I enjoyed it, but I think in many ways I was more interested in the world building of silver nitrate.

This is actually a reread for me. I read the first edition during my grad school days and yes, I was looking for a reason to read the new edition of this book on work time and I got my wish.

And this was actually pretty interesting. I didn't love the romance slash relationship wrap-up thing at the end of it. It felt a little bit shoehorned in when that wasn't really the point of the story.
