Still playing around with my iPad- swipe for progression. This is my version of a fanfic pic I saw on Pinterest but haven’t been able to track down the original artist, so design credit to them, I just redrew it and rendered in Procreate. #sailormoon #sailorchibimoon #chibiusa #lunap #ipadart #thebookofmoon #fanart #90sanime #yello80s https://www.instagram.com/p/B8AgO9vA8_B/?igshid=1hj3pqpr80fh0

Interesting pull going into this retrograde🤔🤔 ⠀⠀ With the The Hermit and The Devil peeking out today reminds us that this retrograde may be bringing out some things we may not want to deal with. 🤦‍♀️ ⠀⠀ But don't be afraid to take some time to yourself and really try and work these things out. The temptation to just push it all aside is there but this may be the best time to drag it out and process it. ⠀⠀ It's time to make room for some abundance in your life. ⠀⠀ Deck: @the5centtarot ⠀⠀ #stardustwanderertarot #stardustwandererastrology #dailytarotreading #tarot #tarotreadersofinstagram #dailytarot #tarotreading #tarotcommunity #tarotcards #witchesofinstagram #divination #tarottribe #tarotcardoftheday #tarotreader #taroteverydamnday #tarotreadersofig #oracle #pagansofinstagram #tarotreadings #dailytarotcard #tarotdaily #thebookofmoons #taroteveryday #spirituality #tarotspread #tarotdeck #spiritualguidance #psychic #intuition (at Turtle Watch) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8tw5-LlFsw/?igshid=1hz6ay2fmrqnj

Owen Thomas Fiction Book Review: “The Book of Moon” by George Crowder
To call “The Book of Moon”a ‘coming-of-age’ story is to be both accurate and woefully incomplete. George Crowder’s deftly-written chronicle of the Landing family, narrated from the teenage-perspective of its youngest member, Moon (yes, that’s Moon Landing), has all of the hallmarks that one expects to find in a good coming-of-age tale: a young man coming to an ever-broader and more richly meaningful understanding of himself, his family and the world as life throws him one curveball after another. In Crowder’s capable hands, we follow young Moon from one revelatory trial and tribulation to the next, watching him wrestle with his own self-concept within the greater context of his parents’ divorce, his older brother’s almost preternatural athleticism, his mother’s sudden and discomfiting sexual regression, the diversity of his friendships, and his own entirely natural wariness and attraction to the mystery of girls. But Crowder’s contribution to this latest and best addition to the genre is that he is telling a coming-of-age story in multiple dimensions. Young Moon aside, almost everyone in this book, including the adults, is coming of age in his or her own way. Each of the Landings is in motion and responding to the new and shifting family dynamic in ways that have cascading consequences for everyone else. This makes for an extraordinarily fun and unpredictable read. It is Crowder’s facility with the larger questions – the ones hanging in the cosmic backdrop against which all of this personal evolution (and devolution) is set – that makes this novel really shine. These are the same philosophical and religious conundrums of humanity against which we are ALL coming of age, all the time, and Crowder uses them brilliantly to frame young Moon’s more intimate and personal development.
This book is disarmingly funny. Crowder’s writing is simple and precise and his message is both provocative and highly resonant. Even the coming-of-age conventions we have all seen and heard so many times before – a child’s take on marital turmoil, parental awkwardness in the netherworld of adolescence, the alien vastness of unexplored sexuality – have here been reimagined back to something that is fresh and novel. Take, for example, this almost obligatory coming-of-age theme: ‘be true to yourself and don’t let others bully you into being ashamed of who you are’. How many times have we seen authors and film makers check that box in roughly the same way? But Crowder manages to capture the point originally and succinctly in the casual, off-the-cuff advice Moon’s alcoholic father gives to his oldest son, Moss: “Son, this is a tough lesson, but it’s time for you to learn it. What other people think of you is none of your business.” That’s original. That’s going to stick; for Moss, for Moon and for me.
I would be remiss to end this review without a nod of appreciation for the quality of the audible version of this book. I divide my reading diet fairly equally between paper, electrons and sound waves and have been an Audible consumer for decades. I have listened to narrations that were truly sublime, truly awful and everything in between. In “The Book of Moon”, the narration of all characters, both genders, all ages and ethnicities by narrator Robert Fass was spot on. I can and do highly recommend “The Book of Moon” in any format.

New Site-wide Plot on The Book of Moons
Ambiguous outlaws and former ally ships El Perro Rojo (The Red Dog) and The Wicked Cat have run aground in Galla Nua.
Their bond was broken after the captain of The Cat, Ametrine Fiddlefern, was mysteriously framed for the murder of the Dog’s first mate, Armando. The Cat’s crew went into hiding in Vencrag.
Liano Zegarra, The Dog’s captain, got a hot tip that they took residence somewhere in Atlantic Canada. The Dog has been sailing around on the hunt for several months now, and have finally hit the right island, unbeknownst to them.
Both ships are recruiting; Liano’s in Millyanne Harbour, and Ametrine’s in Calico Ewer, the latter trying to be a bit more subtle about it. The Cat only hired women, but may have to expand their horizons. The Dog will take anyone they can get.

Site-wide Plot on The Book of Moons
It's said that if you trip on a cobblestone in Welkinweep, the Arch-Devil will steal your toes. If you see a crow alight on a lamppost at midnight, the Arch-Devil will steal your eyes. It's become a popular fairy story that children delight in telling for a scare. Often the storyteller will swap out which part of you he will steal; teeth, nails, tongues.
The tale is loosely related to a string of suspicious disappearances over a half-century’s span; each missing person's next of kin received a package containing one small part of a body, assumed to belong to their loved one. Each was either a current or former resident of Drake street and the areas nearby.
Several innocent denizens have been falsely fingered over the years. Some have been proven to be pranks or copycats, and the true mutilator’s identity has eluded the Recondite Police thus far.
The most recent grisly find took place last year in early winter, 1874, reigniting both the investigation and the imagination of Reconditians:
A package arrived at the doorstep of the Lovett family, a newly wed couple. Valerie Valdez Lovett, the wife, had been missing for several weeks, according to her husband, Hugo Lovett. He opened the package to find a note along with a severed finger which wore Mrs. Lovett’s wedding ring. The contents of the note have not yet been shared to the public.

Have some debt you can’t pay off? Accidentally murder someone? Lie low in Vencrag for a spell. While you’re hiding, why not delight in the hoodoos of the badlands, or the Calico Ewer  oasis? The place is so vast and barren, it’s difficult for provincial authorities to find you. Still, keep a pistol on your person, in case of bounty hunters.

The city of Recondite is the jewel of Galla Nua. Delight in the Feraz Gardens area, home of  the famous Parc de la Fontaine. Stay in luxurious hotels, or catch a show at the Recondite Opera House. 
Those less fortunate must make their stay in the slums of Welkinweep, rife with miscreants, beggars, and sodomites. Be sure to be accompanied whenever you go out at night, lest the Arch-Devil of Drake Street disappear you.

Stroll through the golden fields of Hallachan; idyllic, peaceful, a verdant landscape dotted with farmhouses and little towns. Be wary of the harbour, however, they say it’s become riddled with foreign pirates and shady deals.

Explore the fens of Madsmoor, if you dare. If you’re looking for work, the imposing haunted castle on the hill is always hiring. Watch out for bodies in the bog, and if you’re looking for funeral arrangements, be sure to guard your loved one’s grave from body-snatchers.
