Take a Look through our Lens
“Our species doesn’t operate by reality. It operates by stories. Cities are a story. Money is a story. Space was a story, once. A king tells us a story about who we are and why we’re great, and that story is enough to make us go kill people who tell a different story. Or maybe the people kill the king because they don’t like his story and have begun to tell themselves a different one.” ~ Becky Chambers, Record of a Spaceborn Few

This week’s feature made us take a gander down memory lane. Thanks to That Artsy Reader Girl for the prompt!
"Seven Cities was an ancient civilization, steeped in the power of antiquity, where Ascendants once walked on every trader track, every footpath, every lost road between the forgotten places." ~Steven Erikson, Deadhouse Gates
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday challenge is a fun one: rainy day reads! We prefer to read every day regardless of the weather, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have a few favorites for overcast days.
