It‘s a great day for some porch reading!
Doing some porch reading with Rolo today. Hoping to do a fair chunk of the tagged today because it feels like I‘ve been trying to read this forever.

1. My mom. When growing up in the 70s, she raised four daughters on a meager income and only $35 a week in child support. And we all turned out okay. 😃
2. There are four books in the tetralogy TOaFK, but Wart as Arthur in THE SWORD IN THE STONE is my favorite--one of the most selfless characters I have ever read. 🗡️

One of my favorite films from the early 1980s; an epic fantasy retelling of Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur. 💚

This map was for the 1st book in this tetralogy: THE SWORD IN THE STONE. 💚
I am posting one book per day from my extensive, and ever growing, TBR shelves. Some are old and some are new, some were gifts and some I don't remember why I bought them.

Sometimes you‘re just in the mood for Arthurian stuff. And I would like to lodge a formal complaint against the word TRAVAIL. It makes my hands itch. My brain dislikes the way it looks and sounds.
I have been meaning to listen to the audiobook or read the book for some time. Within about two hours in I had a lot of thoughts. Mainly the constant mentions of inc**t where getting to me; so I decided to research it and found out some uncomfortable things about Zimmerman-Bradley and I ditched the book. I plan on donating my anthology to my library. #noway #yeetedthis

THE ONCE AND FUTURE KING remains in my top five favorite books of all time. Book 4 is titled CANDLE IN THE WIND (way before Elton John's song, btw). 🕯️🕯️🕯️
