“What can they do? Kill my son?” from this comic is now my newest catchphrase. (In case you don’t know, I do not have a son. This makes it funnier, you see.)
This blogger, and specifically her Book of the Month and Aardvark Book Club prediction posts, is one of my many sources for upcoming new books that sound good. (Disclaimer: Our social handles are very similar but that’s really not me, swear.)
