What were some of your favorites?

We've been dealing with a COVID case in the household. Celena was sent home from college to recover. She's been here for a few days and getting better, Fortunately, she's been vaccinated (and young) so it wasn't that bad.
***
I've been reading a LOT lately - which has been great. I just finished what was *the* most disturbing book I've ever read... "The Girl Next Door", which, given that it's horror and I found it on a list of "the most terrifying books ever" probably shouldn't have surprised me much. :)
The worst part of it though is that it's based on a true story. (Basically a fictionalized narrator's POV of a real life event with the names changed) The things that people are willing to do to each other is far more terrifying than any alien spider monster that lives in the sewer.
We also finally started the Squid Games.
So basically I'm feeling pretty darn good about humanity right now. :D

What have YOU been up to?

Date: 2021-11-15 10:31 pm (UTC)She came here because we've had our boosters though and neither one of us have had even a sniffle so far. When we're in the same room everyone is masked and distanced (as much as you can be in the house) with the windows open during the day to increase air circulation.
I'm just glad that her college is taking it seriously even if her classmates aren't. (apparently no one could believe that she was going to get tested, it was "just a cold or something" and seemed shocked when it actually turned out to be COVID... and wanted her to come back up to hang out before she left... ah, to be young again. :D ) Then again, I know some older people who don't really take it seriously either... so *shrug*...
