there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

My review of #TheKillerQuestion by Janice Hallett is live on #damppebbles!

A truly wonderful, inventive, and compelling mystery. The twists and turns are beautifully penned, the misdirection expertly handled.

Iโ€™ve talked before about books that felt like they were written so the most annoying people on twitter didnโ€™t get mad at them and Iโ€™m wondering if this is part of that phenomenon.

Top Ten Middle Gradeย Mysteries March 3: Genre Freebie (Pick a genre and build a list around it. You could do historical fiction featuring strong female leads, contemporary romance set in foreign countries, mysteries starring unreliable narrators, lyrical fiction books in verse, historical romance featuring pirates, Gothic novels with birds on the cover, etc. There are so many options!) Okay, so I'm definitely setting aside historical romance featuring pirates and Gothic novels with birds on the cover for other freebie weeks, once I think I can fill them!

I've been good for the first two months this year and reading plenty of other genres besides fantasy. In March, I'm going back to my roots and reading a bunch of queer fantasy!
These won't be the only ones I'm reading (hopefully) but they will be my priority reads!

Blue and yellow cover of two women facing off on a hill, one wielding magic and the other a sword. The tag line reads "Ultimate Weapon Meets Complete Disaster."

Green Party
25 February 2026
Dear Lucy
On the eve of the by-election, your Labour party spokesperson has admitted to the Huffington Post that a Labour party leaflet has been delivered through doors with your imprint recommending a vote for Labour by a tactical voting organisation which does not exist.
This is deeply troubling, it is actually lying to voters. Did you approve this? Do you feel the Labour Party in government should be held to different standards in terms of honesty to the British public?
In your last letter to me you mentioned your 'very extensive data' and "having spoken to over a third of eligible voters' which led you to an understanding that the by election 'was a contest between labour and Reform'. Clearly this latest development only tells voters one thing - you will employ any type of political deception (or in Urdu "Dhoka" ) to win.
You will be very aware that all three real tactical voting organisations are recommending a vote for the Greens as the best way to stop Reform. Lying to the voters, as you have been caught doing, raises the real prospect that Reform will be the beneficiaries, something you have said that you don't want.
As this is such an important issue, for the sake of your own reputation, I would strongly urge you to apologise to the voters of Denton and Gorton before the polls open in the morning."
Kind regards,
Tack Paanski
Zack Polanski
Leader of the Green Party of England and Wales

This is obvs not the first time Labour has lied, its leader & senior politicians are well-known liars.

But this time it has been caught out, bang to rights, with such an obvious, constructed, deliberate lie.

As @zackpolanski.bsky.social says if Reform wins, Labour will have handed it to them.
