In case anyone is wondering: no, Jess didn’t get her reading chair back. The saga continues. I’m personally even wondering if the chair ever existed. Or maybe it was adopted and is now living a totally different life with another family. Maybe in Italy. I hope it’s happy.
Jess reads Kingdom of the Wicked by Kerri Maniscalco, a witchy enemies-to-lovers book set in pre-unification Italy, and Vee reads The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang (as part of #asianreadathon), a brutal fantasy about war and the fallout that comes from living through it.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
