Greetings, book and treat people, and a big welcome to all the new folks! Over the weekend I jumped on the gay pirate bandwagon (the queer internet has been jumping up and down about it for the past few weeks) and wow was that the wrong choice. I was promised fluffy fun, tender gay pirates, and romance. I got all of that! I also got a cliffhanger ending that was very dark, left me feeling sad and hopeless, and no one thought to mention in their rapturous posts. I can only hope a second season will turn the show into the romantic comedy it’s advertised as. As it stands, it’s a romantic tragedy.

Can I just say (again) how much I appreciate that I know NONE of the books you cover? I read a lot (really, A LOT), and somehow I miss all of these great queer titles -- I don't even *hear* about them. I value your newsletter so much for this!
And I share your feelings about the peepers. They haven't woken up yet, here in southern Wisconsin (though I heard other types of frogs at the pond down the road from my house a couple of days ago), but it's one of my favorite times of year when they do.
