Starting my morning with coffee, raisin toast, & an easy peasy book. I have let go of the why & just accepted that non demanding reading is what I can cope with at the moment.

The other cat kindly agreed to model for this picture 😄

My knowledge of Welsh is sufficient to help me appreciate the beauty of the poetry. I don‘t know enough to pick out many words (maybe I would have done a tiny bit better with modern Welsh), but it was fun to recognize a word here and there! Mostly I enjoyed the earliest known reference to King Arthur.

Bookwomble I really liked this book. Gillian Clarke's poetry is wonderful 😊 2mo

5 ⭐️s
This is another one that leaves me feeling completely inadequate. I don't know where to even begin to express the scope of the story or the impact it has had on me. I urge anyone that enjoys historical fiction, multi-generational storytelling, and having your heart torn from your chest to read it immediately.

Five HUGE stars.

It wrecked me.

Read it.

Reading this book on Christmas Eve has been a family tradition for as long as I can remember. My dad would read it to me when I was a kid.

It‘s a beautiful little story, and I love it, and the movie adaptation. 🩵

#SundayFunday Have a wonderful day, and don‘t forget to tag me!

There‘s a lot of cool stuff in this one, but ultimately it all felt half-baked. The denouement didn‘t hit very hard, and everything after felt rushed.
