😬Forgot to include this book for the month of February 2025 Book #9

What can I say about this book? For me was more like a reflection of these characters about themselves and life during their travel. A philosophical thinking, but didn‘t feel it like a novel with a plot. But judges have more literary experience than me. 😄 3.5⭐️ I liked it but didn‘t love it. Maybe a re-read? 🤷🏽‍♀️

I loved this one. Iris is a bit of a twit, but she actually kind of knew she was being a twit through the whole story so it made it easier to like her. And Olive. What a kid. #18-2025

I am feeling incredibly indecisive right now. So many books so little time.
I am finishing Disappoint Me this week (so good!) Under the Eye of Big Bird is due back to the library by Friday so need to get on that. Also chipping away at Swans of Harlem and I Captured the Castle.
For my daily walks I have the tagged

Mehso-so

January 2025 Book#5
Hard to believe that book with that cover would have many triggers: physical/sexual abuse. London XlX, family try to survive their extreme poverty environment with an abuse, alcoholic father who try to sell his daughter. Sylvia try to escape this world, try to find true love. My opinion is that story try to romanticize John‘s behavior who could be seen as a controlling person to justify his love for Sylvia? Abrupt happy ending?

Gissy 2.5/3⭐️Free translation “The End Of Winter” #BookSpinBingo #18 (book in Spanish) #ISpyBingo (face) @TheAromaOfBooks 3mo

(1966) “The Uncanny Robot“

Last episode, the Terrans captured a Tefroder ship that had been damaged in battle, and also met a new ally, a psychic robot named -- I kid not -- “Lucky Log.“ As Perry and crew move the ship to safe place for further investigation, they get caught up by an automatic wreck-collection system that transports them into Andromeda's forbidden zone. This one is packed with action and incident and does not disappoint.

Bookwomble Ok, the robot called Lucky Log is definitely a thing, but can we talk about the giant space mouse for a moment!? 😂 3mo
swynn @Bookwomble Sure! That's Gucky the Mouse-beaver. Technically, his species was eventually called “Ilt“ -- that's I as in India, l as in Lima, tee -- but the text continues to call him a “Mausbiber.“ He was introduced way back in episode #18, and has been a series regular ever since. He is a telepath and telekinetic. He's also a trickster character and often provides comic relief. 3mo
Bookwomble So, now I want a crossover movie of Gucky the Mausbiber and Rocket Raccoon! Naturally, they'll start with a misunderstanding and be antagonists, gradually realise that they're both on the same side and team up to defeat the villain, wise cracking as they go. Now, who would make a good villain for them! 🤔😁 3mo
swynn @Bookwomble Nobody less powerful than Galactus, of course. 😆 3mo

She did it again, threw in twists at the end that you don‘t see coming! A little Cathy Bates Misery type craziness. I read this in less than 24 hours. Book #18 in 2025

Last book in this trilogy. I really enjoyed it and I will these characters. It‘s a historical fiction/cozy mystery with interesting characters and even Arthur Conan Doyle is amongst those characters. 3.8⭐️
