(Click to enlarge) Original doorway from Moutiers-Saint-Jean monastery, ca. 1250 If you know anything about us by now, you know we love a good fabulous museum now and again.  Other than reading a book, it’s a quick and easy way to time walk to another era!  We did just that when we visited Metropolitan Museum […]

This installment of our Weekly Geek comes from our “Names are Important” file.  It’s probably one of the most important in our file and belongs to our protagonist: Diana Bishop. The name “Diana” is most likely derived from an old Indo-European root meaning “heavenly, divine,” related to dyeus.  In the Persian language Diana means “supplier […]

To hear us talk, you’d think the title was about the BFF! No, it’s about Benjamin. We get it. Description: It’s time for Benjamin to triple-down on his awfulness. This time, he relishes in terrorizing Miriam to the point of her chanting prayers while in distress. No fear, Miriam. Chris will save the day! Maybe. […]

Description: The day in/day out of Emperor Rudolf’s Prague is wearing on us, however we couldn’t have asked for a more satisfactory “goodbye” than this chapter! There’s drama (school play), there’s romance (in Rudolf’s mind!), and there’s action (the great escape!). Oh and of course, we finally get our sights on the missing book, Ashmole […]
