John Schrag<p>I just finished reading “Nevermoor: the Trials of Morrigan Crow” and it was a delight, so thanks to whoever on the Fedi recommended it to me.</p><p>It’s a YA fantasy, about a little girl who is said to be cursed. As a result, she is blamed for everything that goes wrong in her vicinity. It’s set in a vaguely Victorian/steampunk kind of world, where all technology is powered by an ineffable substance called “Wunder”. The worldbuilding is creative and fun, and it’s just a really well-told adventure yarn with great characters.</p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/NowReading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NowReading</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a></p>

Joe 🏳️‍🌈<p><a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/NowReading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NowReading</span></a> The Bell in the Fog by Lev AC Rosen. It's early 1950's San Francisco when we meet Evander Mills, an ex-cop who got kicked off the force after being picked up in a raid on a gay bar. He's trying to make ends meet as a private investigator when his past resurfaces in the form of an ex-lover who he hasn't seen since being discharged from the Navy at the end of the second war. Seems his ex, who stayed in the Navy, is now in line for promotion to Admiral as long as his career doesn't get derailed by a blackmailer and some incriminating photos. With mixed emotions Mills agrees to take the case, but will it prove to be more than he bargained for?</p>
