Loesje22000 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I finished Nutmeg for the micro history square, a quick but very interesting read. “ I have one square to fill: translated. I picked an other volume of a serie I found by Penguin I Think, the one by indridason. I finished also Hygge, my crochet-a-long of last year. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how many I have but way more than one! Any chance of a photo of your crochet a long ? i just finished Home by Nightfall in honor of London for the Brit Trip bus......I actually spent a great deal of time in Sussex. It was the ninth book in the Charles Lenox series by Charles Flinch and was a satisfying read for me. I read most of this series at the start of the year via audiobook. I stopped because I was actually going to have to read this one, gasp! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Violet Crown Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Robin, happy anniversary! It's possible that today is my (cough) 50th birthday. Huzzah! Somehow I'm overcome by a wave of no longer caring what people think about me. Now I need to get a dozen more cats. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care very much for cats although we have 2 in house, but I would like to get that wave too when I become 50. Sooner is right too!!! Happy Birthday Violet Crown! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marbel Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Hello all! Happy Anniversary to you, Robin.! And Happy Birthday to you, Violet Crown! Reading... not much happening. I've completely fallen off the Brit Trip bus. Actually right now I'm back in Yorkshire with The Old Fox Deceiv'd by Martha Grimes, 2nd Richard Jury novel. It's my lunch break reading now. And for some reason I decided that Emile Zola's Germinal would be a good audiobook for my drive to and from work. It's one I've read a few times before - a sentimental favorite from a college Humanities program even though it's quite a grim book. Maybe I was meant to revisit it in this season where I am working in unpleasant conditions for people who have no care for employees. The book is set in a French coal mining town in the 1860s, and describes... people working in terrible conditions for people who have no care for the employees. It's grim, did I mention that? Describes lives much more grim than anything I've ever experienced or likely will. Yet it's a wonderful book. So, good for a little perspective. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin M Posted August 25, 2018 Author Share Posted August 25, 2018 Thanks for all the anniversary wishes. John was creative for brass this year and gave me The Brass Verdict by Michael Connelly. ? Happy Birthday, Violet Crown. Welcome to the 50's club. One of the great things bout our 50's is freedom and not worrying about what other's think. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kareni Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 I'll be heading out of town tomorrow morning with my husband to camp with some of our Lamaze-era friends. I don't expect to have wifi, so I'll get caught up with the new thread upon my return home. Happy reading! Regards, Kareni 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
