Since I’ve already spent too many hours reading this week and not enough time working on my own book, I’m going to paste in part of the Amazon blurb: Book two, Uprising, just released in June. I loved the book, and it’s the first of a series. ![]() ![]() And I really, really like it when that good surprise turns out to be only the first of several. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Luckily, I was spared even the short-lived belief he could be a new book boyfriend by the fact that the first chapter is in his POV. He’s, on paper, a male me - loves reading, grumpy, anti-love. (Disclaimer: I can’t speak to whether they’re worse than in the first, because I don’t remember the first.) Let’s start with Dash, since he comes first, title wise. But God help me if it didn’t feel way longer.Īs always, the characters are the main part. In short, I would have DNFed this if not for the fact that this was 200 pages. It started off rocky, improved a bit, went further and further downhill and lasted forever. Unlike my last attempt at a festive read, What Light, I doubted this one from the start. But I was on a quest for Christmasy books and I saw this. Especially one that takes place a mere year after the first. ![]() The other thing about it being six years ago is it really seems like a sequel is unnecessary. ![]() (Six years ago.) I think I liked it but I was 13 and can’t hold myself to that belief. (And this is a sequel, too.)įor background on my history with the first book: I read it for a middle school summer reading list the year it came out. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I sort of knew it would work out between them in the end, but I couldn't work out how until near the end of the novel how they could ever manage it as so many obstacles were thrown in their path at such a pace I was audibly gasping by Chapter Ten. It just about 2 people I grew to care about - I didn't expect it, but I did. The blurb about the book sets out a plot about a French racing driver, who retired young, and an English student getting it together. It has driven thoughts of work from my mind, taken me on a whirlwind journey leaving me breathless, lifted my spirits no end and left me wanting more. ![]() These all proved to be the right reasons to read The Silk Romance. And it is written by Helena Fairfax - I have met her a couple of times and she is the sort of person whom you leave wanting to see more of. It is set in Lyon, one of my favourite cities. Well, I have had a few stressful weeks at work and this is a holiday weekend. I am not a romantic and I don't normally read romantic novels, but I loved The Silk Romance anyway. ![]() ![]() ![]() Endorsed by Rick Riordan, author of Percy Jackson and the Olympians, soon to be a series on Disney+.

IL-1ra levels (mean ± SEM) tended to be lower in the osteoporotic women (143 ± 21 pg/mL) vs. Despite having higher rates of bone turnover as assessed by bone biochemical markers, the osteoporotic women had serum levels of IL-6, IL-1α, and IL-1β that were similar to the normal women. Since IL-1 activity is modulated by the IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra), we also measured circulating IL-1ra levels in these women. ![]() ![]() ![]() To test this hypothesis, we measured circulating levels of IL-6, IL-1α, and IL-1β in 40 age-matched normal and 40 osteoporotic women with vertebral fractures and increased bone turnover. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) and IL-6 have been postulated to play roles in the pathogenesis of postmenopausal osteoporosis. ![]() ![]() ![]() Pavonis never got high enough at these latitudes to provide much useful illumination now, sinking towards the horizon and clotted by great cauls of dust, it was little more than a rusty-red smear, hard for his eyes to focus on. Sylveste looked down at the excavation grid, the sides of each shaft brightly lit by the banks of floodlights arrayed around the area. “Shall I issue the general evacuation order?” “It’s going to be a hard one, sir.” The man fidgeted, drawing the collar of his jacket tighter around his neck. “You’re saying we should pack up and drive back to Mantell?” They’re advising all surface teams to return to the nearest base.” “Cuvier’s just issued a severe weather advisory for the whole North Nekhebet landmass. The man’s voice was muffled behind his breather mask. “Confirmation, sir,” said one of his team, emerging from the crouched form of the first crawler. But it would take only one good dustfall-one good razorstorm-to fill the shafts almost to the surface. ![]() A million years of stratified geological history pressed against the sheets. The shafts went down tens of metres, walled by transparent cofferdams spun from hyperdiamond. The archaeological dig was an array of deep square shafts separated by baulks of sheer-sided soil: the classical Wheeler box-grid. Sylveste stood on the edge of the excavation and wondered if any of his labours would survive the night. ![]() ONE Mantell Sector, North Nekhebet, Resurgam, Delta Pavonis system, 2551 ![]() ![]() ![]() Ames is a longtime friend and fellow pastor.
