Can't say l'm too happy with my #24B4Monday result. Only managed 20 minutes of read yesterday 🙁
Weekends are becoming increasingly busy for me. So many commitments crowds in the weekend.
Anyway, l managed to read one book for the #ReadingEurope2020 and read along in the #FellowshipOfTolkien readalong.

TheSpineView Life just gets in the way sometimes. At least you carved out a little bit of time to read. 5y
JazzFeathers @TheSpineView True. And l always enjoy a readathon 😁 5y

Read 'till 1am because l really wanted to finish, but l'm not really sure what l think of this story. It's actually something that really happened to the author, when he was a kid, in Munich, at a time when the Nazi Party was rising and just one of many similar movements.
Interesting, but not sure what the point was.

Also #FinishedInADay for #Booked2020 and #Germany for #ReadingEurope2020

Andrew65 A good time. Sounds an intriguing book. 👏👏👏 5y
TheSpineView I hate it when a book leaves you wondering if there was even a plot. 5y

I've intentionally chosen a short book, so l'll have a chance at finishing it during the challenge 😆

Will probably work for #ReadingEurope2020 too.

Andrew65 Sounds a good choice. 5y
jb72 I need to work on my Europe challenge too. 5y
