My media this week (24-30 Sep 2023)
📚 STUFF I READ 📚
🥰 Starter Villain (John Scalzi, author; Wil Wheaton, narrator) - fast & entertaining, 'what it says on the tin' - Charlie, whose life is not so great atm, inherits his estranged uncle's supervillain business & all the attendant issues. No real surprises but a very fun ride. Also very much a love letter to cats.
😊 Adventures in Babysitting (cygnaut) - 49K, XMFC - Gen fic where the 'kids' (Jean, Scott, Ororo) get Erik's help when Prof X and the others go missing, but unfortunately they also tangle with the Avengers along the way.
💖💖 +77K of shorter fic 💖💖
