I finished I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jeanette McCurdy and it was good. I knew her a bit from Nickelodeon growing up and always thought she had great comedic energy. Kinda souring to realize how little she enjoyed it and how many problems she had at the time, how much the memory of the character she played humiliates her.
Now I'm listening to the last book in the Fever series by Karen Marie Moning. It took me a little bit to get on board. It's like book 11, so, it felt tacked on to the series at first, like Moning was just finding reasons to not let everyone go. But now midway through its caught me and I'm enjoying it and see the value in this additional story being told in this world.
I am not losing weight. My ass is still fat. I'm trying to stay the course. I feel like by the time I get to lifting 2x 20 lbs, I'll start to see the differences and be able to slim down. I'm eating protein and pasta and a shit ton of veggies. I'm not gaining weight is the good thing. Every other time I have lifted weights or tried, I've given up too early. I gotta keep going. I'm only lifting 10 lbs in each hand so far. That's not a lot, really. I gotta keep building my ability to lift more.
If you liked Moning, you should give the October Daye series by Seanan McGuire a go.
