So glad this is back! I’m conflicted with Sarah, as is she with herself. I’m more like Ashlee (not as OCD) or Uyen (not as intense). On the surface it seems like Sarah has wasted a lot of opportunities. And as for the dress code, literally every place I have ever worked has one. I can’t really sympathize with her on that one, just suck it up and follow it like everyone else. I’m seeing her insecurity show through, I wonder what happened in college that threw her off her path?

Such a fun weekend, and a lot of compromise and self growth. I’m a little jealous of the option of jaunting off to a different country for the weekend. Similar to Australians, in the US it takes so long to just get to other parts of the country, going to another country is definitely not a jaunt.

Funny! I thought about the car too! Clara packed her ancient tomes next to the granola bars.

I’m looking forward to reading another of your older stories. I like the camaraderie between the boys. It sounds like Peter needs to be jolted from his comfort zone, and Andy seems like he is up for the task.

From Wikipedia: In Egyptian mythology, Wepwawet (hieroglyphic wp-w3w.t; also rendered Upuaut, Wep-wawet, Wepawet, Apuat, and Ophois) was originally a deity of funerary rites, war, and royalty association, whose cult centre was Asyut in Upper Egypt (Lycopolis in the Greco-Roman period). His name means opener of the ways and he is often depicted as a wolf standing at the prow of a solar-boat.

I like the druid faery world you constructed, Maio sounds like an interesting person. So, I'm wondering if Grey's alter ego, Wepwawet, is a spirit, past life, symbiot?

Their spirit and good will has gone viral! I loved the healing of Auntie, I sure wish I had a Rhys to cure my rheumatoid arthritis! I think that Ranevargar's plan to stop them with "A thousand little stings" is a great idea. I'm always concerned that they will be exposed to society, which would be catastrophic. Continuing the visible protest efforts on the surface, while using undetectable and effective methods below the surface is the best way to beat these robber barons.

This chapter shows just how far Colin has come since meeting Owain. It also shows the progress still desired, but not yet achieved. Something to look forward to.

Wow, what a tense chapter! We now have that vital piece of information we have been missing and searching, the secret contingency giving Martina her motive. How does a person make the leap from devoting her life to wild animal conservation to sacrificing the animals and Micco, and (I'm assuming) murdering Sam when the plan fell apart? If her husband was still alive, I can't see her doing all this (or at the very least getting away with it). The writing was perfect -- fast-paced, urgent, concise. We finish with Micco and Chase revisiting their childhood behaviors. Hopefully Chase will yet again come to Micco's rescue once he has Matthew and Calhoun safely in the shelter.

I'm so glad to find out this beginning is set before Alec/Finn and River/Ji. I was worried for a bit! I'm looking forward to exploring the very complex River.

I'm all caught up! I'm thankful that our guys have magic on their side, I can't see how ordinary people could win this battle. Sadly similar goings on are happening all over earth. I can't wait to see Benton's reaction when his dastardly plan fails!
-
It sounds like Toby's perfect vacation. The guys are showing what good parents they are by catering this vacation around Toby's interests, rather than their preferences. I'm much more a small town/nature lover, than a city lover, so their vacation appeals to me.

I'm wondering if Owain will try to make contact with the one good friend he lost touch with? I liked this calm, "slice of life" chapter, but I have to agree with some of my fellow readers that a disturbance is upcoming.

I’m a little confused, when did Grey get out of his chains? When you told me you wanted to leave to go find her, I just remembered her words. And you wouldn’t budge… so I told your dad about your plans to leave,” he said. “That was you?” I screamed at him, “They chained me up!” We know that Mark and Grey were together 3 years later, until Mark publicly rejected him. We also know that Grey’s dad stopped abusing him around the time of the chaining.

Val can go to earth with Beckett!? Hmmmm, remember months ago when we speculated that Val could maybe shift into or appear as a human in the human world? Maybe?

I just finished Widderkin last week, so this feels like a natural progression to me. I especially like Auntie Arika, I think she would be delighted with the realms! I'm looking forward to the battle with the miners/government. I'm concerned that the "special" quartz is related to the Nexus stone.
-
I was impressed by Ashlee, disgusted and angered by Sarah, and so very impressed by Felicity and her courage. I can intellectually understand Felicity’s life, but I can’t possibly know how she feels. This powerful chapter made me think about my own attitudes and reactions, and I thank you for that.

If you like westerns, this is one of the best. If you couldn't care less about westerns, this is still one of the best romances you will read! The main characters are complex, likable, and brave. All of Gary's stories are very well-written, this is no exception. Bearpaw will make you feel good and become a part of you.

I'm glad that Noah's official coming out to his parents was positive. I wonder what his Grandma's problem is, maybe she's just like Colin's brother Miles, loves the sound of her own voice and wants everyone to hear her opinions. Hopefully Val will put her in her place.

I couldn’t be more pleased with this ending! They have a great future ahead of them and it’s all the more dear due to what they’ve been through! Thank you!

I’m not sure I understand the animosity towards Jamie and Andre. Women frequently have very close friends they share everything with, why can’t men? I don’t get the feeling that Jamie and Andre have had any separation over time, therefore no “mystery” over their relationship. Chris and Michael were completely out of touch until the party, but were obviously close at one time, requiring some storytelling over a nice dinner.

Well they certainly cleared the air! I don’t get the feeling that either couple are in danger of straying. Xavier sounds like he was bad news, hopefully he stays in jail and doesn’t cause problems for the future. Easter in Melbourne with extended family will probably be busy, I hope that Andre gets along well with Chris’ family.

Oh Ashlee. Poor Felicity, I can’t imagine how defeated she must feel. We saw Ashlee’s emotions all over the place from beginning to end, but her gut reaction was something her mother would say. I hope she rethinks her response and apologizes, maybe some research (which she excels with at work) would be in order for her personal life.
-
Regarding the meds ….. maybe diabetic? I like Felicity’s spirit, when her relationship ended, she didn’t go back home and work for her dad, she did what needed done and moved on. That Sarah has been through trauma does not surprise me. Bravado and brashness can sometimes be a good cover for hurt. I can’t quite figure out Uyen yet. She seems to be a tough cookie with a gooey center.

I loved this beginning, you painted a great picture without even a smidgen of boring exposition. Ashlee is OCD, smart, self-driven, introverted, funny and maybe a little lonely. I look forward to her future.
