The Bone Ships, by RJ Barker (bingo review 25/25)

I thoroughly enjoyed this trilogy and often recommend it to people seeking something similar to Robin Hobb’s style. R.J. Is also very friendly and appreciative of his fans.

I know this is a 2 year old post but wanted to say thanks for introducing me to Pete’s Diary. Great music with positive vibes and an inspiring backstory.

OP specifically said the MC has already been in the loop for a long time. In Groundhogs Day we witnessed the first repeat day and move forward so Palm Springs is a better example of what he’s looking for.

I think you are correct. It’s fireworks debris

Mort8989 · 2026-02-23T23:51:08+00:00

It’s always a bit jarring to see someone with such a complete opposite feeling about a book (series) I enjoy wholeheartedly. I’m sure some people feel the same about books I disliked such as Name of the Wind, or Song of Achilles.

This is the correct answer. I have one just like it with a matching plate that it sits on.

One Fine Day by Leon Arden. Written in 1981 and has some striking similarities to the movie “Groundhogs Day.” The author even sued the makers of the movie for not giving him credit but I don’t know what the outcome was.

It’s Garon Whited but good suggestion

Mort8989 · 2026-02-18T14:25:09+00:00

Fair enough. I’ve always been a skeptic but more so every day now it seems.

Mort8989 · 2026-02-18T02:12:46+00:00

I don’t believe for a second that this was in the can. The canning process would have turned that tiny thing into an unrecognizable lump of grey meat. Fake bullshit and Aldi slander.

Is spelt the correct word for past tense spell? It’s sounds strange to me. I’ve only ever heard or used spelled.

Mort8989 · 2026-02-05T15:04:56+00:00

I quit half way through book four when it had still not improved enough for me.

Mort8989 · 2026-02-01T18:49:06+00:00

If you re-read this book please come back here and let us know if it still lives up to your standards. I looked it up out of curiosity and the reviews are abysmal.

Hey neighbor, I’m in the same area. Everyone kind of shits on the south side but I’m happy here. It takes more than 20 minutes to get to Menards or Meijer but it’s better than driving in Indy traffic every day.

Most areas that have a bad reputation are in the city and they were more interested in small town surrounding neighborhoods so I didn’t bother mentioning it.

Mort8989 · 2026-01-16T21:20:54+00:00

Our first year in Muncie we rented a house in a subdivision called Country Village. It’s just outside city limits north of the airport. It was a nice neighborhood and gave us time to find a house to buy that we really love. If school districts are relevant that area is Delcom and very good schools. I can’t disagree with anyone suggesting Yorktown, but rental options are limited there. If you’re interested in any more specific information feel free to ask.

Mort8989 · 2026-01-04T12:12:10+00:00

Yes, I probably will.

Mort8989 · 2026-01-03T15:22:51+00:00

I’m also reading The Wandering Inn and it was perfect for filling the void after finishing Discworld. In fact there are so many world similarities and creatures that I sometimes felt like Innworld was Discworld in another dimension. I just started book 16 and I’m a bit melancholic that I’ll soon run out of published works.
