Cirsium occidentale
Showy silver-leaved thistle with large crimson webbed flowers. Grows 2-4' tall, likes full sun. Found in many plant communities, from sandy beaches to hillsides. It blooms Apr-June. Biennial, it grows the first year and blooms the second. The seed, somewhat painful to gather, is worth it. Grow first in 4" pots. Protect the seedlings from birds when young.
Note: We have a limited supply of Cirsium occidentale seeds and are only offering 1 packet per customer.
Native thistles are varied, beautiful and showy, and unlike the many weedy thistles growing in California, they are not invasive. When they turn up here and there throughout the garden, they are a thrilling sight. We were so happy when one plant bloomed magnificently right in the doorway leading in to the Larner Seeds Garden Shop that we left it in place. The cries of pain from customers were minor compared to the splendors of the rich crimson flowers contrasting with the silver foliage.
This plant in bud was made famous by a photo in Shelter Publications' book Symmetry, by Lloyd Kahn.

A must have!!
Format: Kindle
As someone who was completely new to real estate, The Real Estate Investing and Rental Property 2-in-1 Boxset was exactly what I needed to get started. The first book walks you through the basics of real estate investing in 7 simple steps, making the entire process feel manageable, even if you don’t have much money or experience. It was reassuring to learn how regular people can get insanely wealthy through real estate, and the clear strategies for finding and financing your first deal were incredibly practical.
The second book dives deeper into rental property investing, covering everything from finding the right property to managing short- and long-term rentals. I found the step-by-step guides on property management and scaling your portfolio especially helpful. The detailed sections on deal analysis and avoiding bad investments really boosted my confidence.
The bonuses included, like the apartment investing guide and tax planning tips, were just icing on the cake. If you're looking to break into real estate or expand your rental empire, this boxset gives you everything you need in a straightforward, easy-to-follow format. I highly recommend it for beginners and seasoned investors alike!

Queer LitRPG at it's finest
Format: Kindle
It's been a while since I've read this genre. This is by far one of the best books in the LitRPG genre that I've ever read though. It has all of the trappings of a good LitRPG book, plus it has an actual plot and fleshed out characters. And our MC, Cat doesn't start off OP at all. Plus the fact that it's a queer woman as the MC. Beautiful. The snark from her AI companion, Mayalis is really fun as well. Lots of the reviews I've noticed seem to be reviewing the entire series as a whole, but I'm just going to stick to what I've read in each book separately.
The story is fast paced, with short, bite sized chapters that lead you to zipping through. Because the next chapter is only a few more pages, you'll take a break then...or maybe the chapter after. I certainly couldn't put it down. I'm eagerly anticipating the next installment of the story to find out what happens next as well as to watch Cat's power grow.
There is no romance yet in the story really, though there is a somewhat established relationship involving one of Cat's fellow orphans, Lucy. There is the promise for more romance ahead, and I'm looking forward to it.

Easy reading, needs an edit pass
Format: Kindle
Bottom Line Up Front: good enough to buy sequels.
The premise of the story is set up well, pacing is overall decent (coincidentally, about real-time with the reader). The characters are simple, boiling down to one property for personality, one for motivation, and one for looks. However, they play believably against each other and there's no feeling of railroading (except one place, more on that later).
The chapter prefaces offer a nice world building method unconstrained by the first person exclusive story itself. On the other hand... Tell me the book was written during Trump-era mask mandates without saying "The book was written during Trump-era mask mandates".
Those references, while amusing now, will be dead in a few years (unlike the reference to SpaceBattles which is eternal).
Speaking of: The book could use a professional editor to fix things like "gravity thingamaBALL" being two pages later called a "gravity thingamaGRENADE" and described as a cylinder, easy to tie to. Clearly the author changed the shape for convenience but forgot to change the earlier mention (also, metal cylinders slip out of nooses. If you write an ACME 10-ton weight, shape it like a weight and be done with it ;). There were other similar niggles that I forgot now, and I saw no major plotholes... But remember: SpaceBattles forum feedback does not an editor equal.
Overall, nice way to spend sick days with 40 C fever.

Just from the beginning, I'm hyped
Format: Kindle
Just from reading the first few chapters, I'm excited. I hate having to deduct stars for non-story related issues, but this formatting is really hard to read. This is much easier to read on Neovel. I started reading it there after Amazon had recommended this book to me. I had no idea we had a web-novel to (light?-)novel pipeline in English! After the first few chapters, I bought the book here to support the author, but trying to read it is a very poor experience. The spacing and sometimes fonts are wrong and make it really hard to read, which is odd because the formatting is great on Neovel. It's almost like it was copied over into ebook using a poorly written tool that didn't properly convert various tags. The primary issue is a lack of indentation on paragraphs. There's also that the AI speaks in italics, but sometimes the italics are missing. Some edits have been made from the web novel, though they seem mostly spelling fixes. The character's point totals are significantly different in Chapter 26 of the web novel vs this book. I haven't re-read the ebook from the beginning though, so I don't know why there's such a difference. I'm not sure which one is better to read, though for some reason the author never put volumes 2 and 3 on Amazon so you'll need to read them over there anyway.
Update: As a huge fan of the series, I raised my star rating even though I still stand by the formatting issues. It's not fair to have that tarnish the content rating though. Also, of course, future volumes have continued to be published since then.
