Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for December 16, 2021

Looks like this group will go smoothly with Marigold after all.

It’s okay. The meet in the Realm of Locations that People Make Cheap Jokes About. Time means nothing here.

Dreadful.

Oh well, she was in desperate need of some beauty sleep anyway.

I think the “Z” was her review.

“This book you chose is exceptionally boring. It’s so boring that I had to turn off the Shield of Boringness just to read it.”

Studying for finals is a lot like this… or can be if you put it off until the last minute. Don’t ask how I know!

In your dreams, Mari! :D

Sometimes you can’t fight sleep!

I thought that book was a bit of a snooze-fest too!

I love the beady eyes of that unicorn in the middle on the right. More of him/ her/ them please.

So you can stare at you during eons, but you can’t stay awake more than 24 hours out of that?

after a short nap.

Who knew there was a unicorn mashup of DUNE and WAR AND PEACE?

Do unicorns drink coffee?

Well, it’s adorable that she’s trying so hard. It’s clear she does have a genuine interest to be included. Whether or not it’s for the same reasons as the book club’s whole reason for existence is still to be determined, but beside the point for now.

Smooth, real smooth, Marigold.

At least Mari remembered one letter…

Great. As if things couldn’t get worse, she suffers an attack from Zorro!

On a Navy transit run back to the US from the Med, I read Crime and Punishment. Yes, transits are that boring.

Oh no! Her one chance to prove herself and she blows it. Perhaps she will get extra points for staying up all night.

What do you know… she’s quiet again! LOL

Me in the morning.

That’s what happens when you pull an all nighter… :P
