  I'd been milking my breasts for around a year now and I couldn't even remember how it started. All that matters is that it felt incredible, but I was about to find out how much more incredible it is when someone else is doing it to you. It just so happened that 'someone else' wound up being my older, mature, experienced alpha male housemate! Luckily he likes it just as much as I do!

  Murder by Invitation Only

  "A murder will occur tonight at Beecham House . . ." Who could resist such a compelling invitation? Of course, the murder in question purports to be a party game, and Phyllida looks forward to using some of the deductive skills she has acquired thanks to her employer, Mrs. Agatha, who is unable to attend in person. 
   
   
   
  The hosts, Mr. and Mrs. Wokesley, are new to the area, and Phyllida gladly offers their own overwhelmed housekeeper some guidance while events get underway. Family friends have been enlisted to play the suspects, and Mr. Wokesley excels in his role of dead body. Unfortunately, when the game's solution is about to be unveiled, the participants discover that life has imitated art. Mr. Wokesley really is dead! 
   
   
   
  In the absence of Inspector Cork, Phyllida takes temporary charge of the investigation, guiding the local constable through interviews with the Murder Game actors. At first, there seems no motive to want Mr. Wokesley dead . . . but then Phyllida begins to connect each of the suspects with the roles they played and the motives assigned to them. It soon becomes clear that everyone had a reason to murder their host—both in the game and in real life. Before long, Phyllida is embroiled in a fiendishly puzzling case, with a killer who refuses to play by the rules . . .

  Bush Meat

  For Sarah's family, memories of early Sixties Aba in south-eastern Nigeria are scorched onto their hearts. A days-old burial mound exposed as an 'exploded diagram' of bones picked clean by beasts. Adaku the Barbary duck with a 'melted face', who was conscripted into friendship by six-year-old Sarah in the first of a lifetime's unlikely alliances, forged by necessity and relocation. The narcotic puff let out from the freezer in the meat-man's shack off the Ikot Ekpene road, where Maureen, Sarah's lonely mother, gave up aspirations to be a 'proper oil company wife' to Jim, and risked buying 'bush meat'. The dry 'snakeskin' bark of the old iroko tree on the bend of the town's river, under whose shade Jim sought sanctuary from people, and whose 'two long white catkins the tree one day bestowed onto his head like confetti.'
  Back home, Jim swaps adventure and agency for woodwork and more whisky. Maureen, denying her love of Igbo crafts and cloth, considers reinventing herself as an Oxfam shop assistant. In the days before her grandmother's funeral, Sarah finds the platitudes of her father evasive compared to the wisdom and ritual taught by servant Chidike while burying the household monkey. Sarah's hard-won Nigerian barter goods, a silver thumb-ring and a dare taken to eat fried-fat market 'snack', become devalued. At Aba's Sancta Maria, unaccustomed food was a cone of hot roast groundnuts paid for by a penny with a hole. In Britain, 'unaccustomed' means milk with a 'thickened band of yellow'. Now, the currency is a dare Sarah first honours, then refuses.
  As people of that time and place are scattered like those bleached bones, Aba acts as centripetal force on their imagination. Today's city was a small town the like of which Tim Winton gnaws at from different angles in The Turning. Mandy Sutter's approach is similarly innovative. Her themes are substitution, racism, and whether the spirit can ever survive transaction.

  "You treated us like dirt then taught us to fight as a unit. That is the mark of a professional military officer," Metie stated. "Last night you became a spirit and walked among the soldiers. Now you leave sacrifices for their dead and thank your Goddess for sparing us. That is very priest like. The guardsmen, Tribune, are conflicted." 
   
   
   
  Alerio Sisera had made killers out of a handful of guardsmen to win over one Captain. The other three Captains were in their regions and hundreds of miles away. And each would require a different task to give Alerio an endorsement as a Military Attaché. 
   
   
   
  Tribune Sisera prayed for an opportunity to get all four Captains in one place. He should have remembered Aesop's warning, "Be careful what you wished for, lest you get it." 
   
   
   
  Welcome to 257 B.C.

  Vanity Fair - Audiobook

  William Makepeace Thackeray,...

  • 0

  William Makepeace Thackeray's Vanity Fair is a monumental satire of nineteenth-century English society. Subtitled "A Novel Without a Hero," it chronicles the rise and fall of Becky Sharp, a clever, ambitious, and morally ambiguous woman determined to secure wealth and status in a world driven by greed, vanity, and hypocrisy. Alongside her, the virtuous but naïve Amelia Sedley provides a striking contrast, embodying the traditional values of love and loyalty.Through its vivid cast of characters, from aristocrats to soldiers, Thackeray exposes the follies and pretensions of a society obsessed with appearances and material success. His biting wit, sharp observations, and refusal to glorify any single character make the novel both a mirror of Victorian life and a timeless commentary on human weakness.Endlessly entertaining and profoundly insightful, Vanity Fair remains a classic of world literature. Its mixture of humor, irony, and moral questioning continues to captivate readers and listeners, reminding us of the eternal dance between ambition and virtue.
