Shannara Readthrough: A Knight of the Word

Howdy, squiders. Hope you’re doing well. I’ve finally finished the next book in my Shannara readthrough (I read the last book–technically the first book chronologically–in spring of 2022. Making excellent progress, she says sarcastically.) and thought we should probably talk

Happy Thursday, squiders. I had a lovely birthday yesterday, but today’s been a mess. One of the things I did yesterday, though, was sit and finish The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches, which was a lovely book that I
