I'm starting my #20in4 today and going til Tuesday.

I've been working on this for over a month. It's good. It's not quite 400 pages, but it feels dense. Here's to finishing 190 pages during the readathon (only 11 chapters?! See...it's dense)

@Andrew65 Hey! I'm actually posting! 🤣

Andrew65 Posting is always good 😂, well done 👏👏👏 2y

Starting this today with the little reading time I have this weekend.

Shortly after we got Watson, he must've felt that books took attention away from him (or he was just an inquisitive little puppy). He went to the bottom shelf of a bookcase, pulled this book from its shelves, and tore the back cover into little pieces. He wasn't a chewer, just a ripper. It was a fun afternoon putting this puzzle together.

Brilliant.
Such a woven story of a man's very extended life, his legacy and his lives.
Really great book, very pleased I've had the time to read.

Becker I love John Boyne. 3y

Such a fantastic writer.
His debut, it's brilliantly written and the fluctuations of time and place are riveting.

♠️ One or any of either Enid Blyton‘s or Astrid Lindgren‘s books.
♥️ Yes, I do, both a bit, but I am a herb gal through and through.
♣️ I just performed in a musical on Thursday ♦️John Boyne, Sharon Bolton, Susan Howatch, Ken Follett, and about 100 more. @CSeydel #weekendchat
