I had to read a poorly written book for work, and now I'm sinking into an @elizmccrack.bsky.social novel like it's a warm bath.

Image of Richard Quist's Goodreads review of Alex Grecian's THE BOATMAN. The review text is: 
For the first and only time in his life, Billy Prescott had an epiphany. He understood instinctively what was happening. With the last of his strength, he fell against the ship's conn, and the Maria Calypso began to pick up speed.
-- Alex Grecian, The Boatman

The Boatman is the first book I've read by Alex Grecian. I expect to be reading more. I would NOT describe it as a "slasher" or a "thriller"... nor would I call it a traditional "horror" story. What I WOULD say is that The Boatman is a compelling, and at times heart-breaking ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ story with supernatural vibes. Young newlyweds, June and Walt Dennison, are taking a cruise on the Maria Calypso for their honeymoon. They haven't spent a lot of time thinking about death and dying, but that's about to change as they, and the rest of the passengers and crew aboard the ship lay eyes on the Boatman, inexorably keeping pace with the ship in his small rowboat.

Death comes for everyone... But what if you could outrun it? That's the challenge, and opportunity, for everyone on board the Maria Calypso. But is keeping ahead of the Boatman possible, and is it worth the cost?

Thanks to Bad Hand Books for providing me with an eBook ARC to review.

Despite court order, a critical FEMA program remains frozen Months after a judge ordered the Trump administration to restore climate adaptation grants, FEMA insiders say the agency hasn’t budged.

β€œDespite bipartisan support…the Trump admin issued a memo announcing its intent to shut down BRIC in April. Then, in December, a federal judge ordered FEMA to restore the program’s funding and β€˜promptly take all steps necessary to reverse’ the termination.” It hasn’t happened.
