pickKrabat,an orphan,teenage boy,becomes one of 12 apprentices at a mysterious mill.However,their Meister teaches more than how to operate a mill-he is a sorcerer-& soon Krabat becomes versed in the art of magic.

I liked 'Letter for the King' a few years ago. Nice but not finding it engaging (whether that is due to the translation or the original writing I don't know). I do like the illustrations, which are by the author
Reading at the beach on this slightly overcast and windy day. Nonetheless, it's so f***ing beautiful. 🌬⛱️🌊

I have two reading buddies, but only Porky likes the book. Nugget is having too much fun running around the bathroom.
My little one "reading" Mr Tickle to her friend ❤️❤️
pickLovis was my favorite character. So calm to all the chaos. From now on, I will aspire to be Lovis.
Loved Ronia's and Birk's friendship. I honestly think living in a cave might be a cool adventure. As long as harpies don't find me. I think Linville Caverns should offer nightly stays.
Matt was all over the place. Good grief. This was an awesome read.

pickMore hijinx from the beloved bear, in this the second book in the series. Paddington gets his own room, the grumpy neighbor has reason to be upset with the bear, and Mr Gruber (the antique shop owner) proves to be a good friend of the bear. And Paddington celebrates his first Christmas and his second birthday!
When I get in a reading slump I know exactly who will take me right out of it. So I‘m almost looking forward to my next reading slump!!
