My media this week (17-23 Sep 2023)

sofie bikes is my hero

📚 STUFF I READ 📚

🥰 Once a Rogue (Roaring Twenties Magic #2) (Allie Therin, author; Joel Froomkin, narrator) - satisfying 2nd adventure of Lord Fine & Sebastian de Leon keeping both the mundane & magical worlds safe from evil magic relics, featuring antimagic fanatics, missing friends, bootleggers, and, since Sebastian is involved, happy endings for stray kittens.

😍 A Nobleman's Guide to Seducing a Scoundrel (The Doomsday Books #2) (KJ Charles) - another stellar KJC histrom with inheiritance chicanery, dealing with bad dad trauma and other horrible family members and hidden treasure! Delighted to back at Romney Marsh (or as near as).

😊 Unwanted Celebrity (Kryptaria, zooeyscigar) - 72K, stucky no-powers AU; "Fifteen years ago, a skinny kid from Brooklyn went to an arts summer camp, where he met child movie star Jimmy Barnes. Their unlikely friendship faded as the years passed. But now, a threat to Barnes' career brings Steve back into his life, in the most unexpected of ways. Or, the one where Bucky is a smooth celebrity, right up until Steve the snarky photographer shows up, and Bucky's whole world gets blown to pieces."
