Life has cut back on my reading time. Finally getting to the second book of this series I promised my oldest I would read.
Ahhh life - spent the last year after quitting thinking about alcohol, why I drank, my relationship with it, why it is for me both a blessing and a curse. Trying to find the words - and then finding that Jack London expressed pretty much everything I was working towards in his memoir of being a functional alcoholic “John Barleycorn” a hundred years or so ago.
pickBook #21 of 2025: “West With Giraffes” by Lynda Rutledge
Incredibly well written. Based on a true story but told from a fictional character‘s perspective, Rutledge imagines the journey two giraffes made from New York City to San Diego in 1938. It‘s poignant and heartbreaking, but also full of loving warmth. If you‘re looking for a read that pulls you in for hours then this is the book for you.

With a new theory of where the Heirarch's Well may be, Kai and his allies work to ensure that no new Heirarch will be created. In the past, Kai must work to bring the dust witches into Bashasa's army as they continue their fight to defeat the Heirarchs.
I love the ways the two story entangle. We know how the war ends, but the details of what truly happened are slowly revealed through both the past and present story lines.

pickSo great! Great descriptions! If you like wildcards and fantasy this is for you. Warning, you have to be committed to the series if you want to read the first one. It will leave you on a cliffhanger every time until the last book, the seventh.#jkrowling #fantasy #cliffhangerseiries #harrypotter #mustread #wizards
so-soMostly read cause I'm heading to costa rica tomorrow. Not the best writing but entertaining enough.
Well look at this! Anyone would think I‘d actually been reading books! Remarkable!
Sabotage… is a middle grade crime thriller, set on a runaway solar-powered train, north of Alice Springs. It turned out to be more thriller than crime (think Speed meets Scooby Doo), but there was a Christie-esque ‘let me tell you who dunnit‘ at the end. Loads of fun, enough train facts to keep any young train fans happy, and really quite page-turnery! Fab!
