I don’t know if I ever posted this shot from the desert in February 2018 of Michael and David (he’s getting mic'ed up, not mugged). It was the kind of panoramic shot that decides that Michael is a big floating giant head.
One of my most recent reads is Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo! Whilst being drastically different in tone from the Grishaverse series, this book has the same charismatic characters and vibrant world building. In this book we follow Alex Stern, a young woman with a dark past working for the Ninth House of Yale to monitor the other eight houses, to ensure that their occultic practices don’t go too far. After it seems like one of the houses has overstepped their boundaries with devastating results, Alex must work to discover the truth about the secret societies of Yale, and herself. Before reading this book, I’d advise looking up a list of trigger warnings as this book contains a lot of adult content.
