Probably NOT the best book for Americans to read at the moment with 🍊 in office (it'll be divisive, depending on your politics), but I flew through this.

#52bookclub25 #readinabermonth

Not 100% surprised at this.

Disappointed with this - I wanted to love it.

Thanks to @LeeRHarry for pointing out my error on my last post - this is now correct!

Best book of #August. @Catsandbooks

Why does 🍊 have to give his opinion on their engagement?!

Feel free to have a #ranttime on this post - I'll fully support you 😆😆😆!

May be of interest to the #pemberlittens @BarkingMadRead as it refers to both her characters and brothers!

"The sounds and smells of rural life were seldom far away, and the parish clerk would sometimes have to shepherd the gaggle of ducks that lived in the churchyard away from the door when the service was about to begin."

If I have to have an earworm, you do too! 🤣🤣🤣

Today's charity shop haul! I'm particularly pleased with the tagged book, as it's incredibly hard to find fiction books set during Queen Anne's reign, and as I want to use this period (and the coffee house setting) in my writing, I'm hoping it will inspire me!

🤣🤣🤣

I had hibernated this book, but I'm not missing reading it, so DNF'ing it instead.

@Bookgoil um... thanks for the Christmas card?! 🤣🤣🤣

Concerning at the lack of care the leaders have!

Visited Stourhead today but didn't find my Miss Darcy! 🤣🤣🤣

(In case you're wondering, this is where the first proposal scene in 2005's Pride and Prejudice was filmed)

I would not be 100% surprised if the two semi-finalists were The Devil and the Dark Water and Woodworking.

OK, I've given in & joined Fable.

#camplitsy25 is really working for me this year! 4/4 getting 5 stars!

I started this at 6:10 this morning and have just finished it! And I had tears near the end, although not full-on crying!

@squirrelbrain @Megabooks @BarbaraBB

Only read this if you like opera or classical music - most of this went over my head, but it is readable when it gets to the historical background of some of Handel's pieces.

Definitely not for a beginner musician - you need some understanding of terms, etc.

#tlt #threelistthursday @dabbe

1. The Greatest Showman
2. POTC: Dead Man‘s Chest
3. Harry Potter - the John Williams tunes

Honourable mentions to Babe the Sheep Pig & the 1995 Pride and Prejudice.

For those of you who thought Barthes...! And yes, I know this is AI, and I shouldn't rely on it 🤣

#camplitsy25 is really knocking it out of the park this year for me - all 3 have got 5 🌟 from me so far, and I may even try the one I was unsure about! (Tilt). @Megabooks @BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain

@maich THANK YOU for everything in my #staycationintimeswap - I forgot to take photos of each layer, but I seriously love it all! I'm particularly looking forward to the tagged book - it'll be really interesting reading a book set in the 18th century that isn't based in the UK!

Thanks for organising @Chrissyreadit @DinoMom

Tagged book wins the #readingbracket2025 for June, but Audition is my first Wild Card! @Catsandbooks

Just want to share this, as it's (semi) relevant to the novel: https://staffprofiles.bournemouth.ac.uk/display/whittingtonp

I have the privilege of calling him a friend and a neighbour. He's absolutely amazing with what he's achieved - paraplegic due to birth complications. He's able to drive, whilst I (with no obvious physical disabilities) can't!

@maich your #staycationintimeswap was sent today! @Chrissyreadit @DinoMom

Hi everyone!
Unfortunately, I am going to have to leave #litsylove, as the cost of postage has gone up, and it'll soon add up (& I was very behind anyway!). I would have sent an email, but I can't remember who I need to notify! If I have written a note in your #summerswap card, don't worry, as I'm still going to be writing to you. If you can please remove me from the list, that would be great!
Hope you can understand!

Dear @maich, I have a couple of requests that I forgot to put on my form.

🌎 Page count for books - PLEASE only send more than one if they are 400 pages or less - I'm running out of shelf space! 🤣
🌎 Either focus on location or time - I realise what I wrote on the form will be hard to find, so if one is easier to do than the other, that's absolutely fine!

Thanks in advance!

@Chrissyreadit @DinoMom

Just seen this on FB.

Just bought!
