Starting off #JubilantJuly by listening to The Evening and The Morning.

A big book, which I am already 1/3 of the way through, but I still have over 16 hours of it to listen to.

Started listening to The Evening and The Morning, the prequel in the superb Kingsbridge Series. At 24.33 hours it might take a while. Decided to re-read the whole Series. Hoping it will help me get back in a reading flow.

Can‘t wait for the new book to be published in September.

1. My challenges are going so-so. Still trying to trudge through WAR AND PEACE for #Chunksters, still caught on last month's #AuthoraMonth. Finished (and loved) OLD FANCIES & NEW FRIENDS with the #pemberlittens. However, my actual #TBR shelf just sits there. I think I'm going to have to give up some challenges if I want to shorten my books on the shelves.
2. Time to whittle down my books on the shelves.

Here‘s my April Reading Record :

29 books finished (which includes three short stories or novellas)
10,463 Pages Read
11 #SeriesLove2023 books @TheSpineView
6 #AuthorAMonth Books @Soubhiville
13 #ARCApril books
11 #Audiobooks
2 #Chunksters
Only 1 #OffMyShelves 😣

After a bit of a freeze on book buying another #booksale #bookhaul !! 📚😬

I guess this is what happens when you restrict yourself 🤷🏻‍♀️

But at least it was another #supportyourlocallibrary situation.

#JoyousJanuary

I completely forgot to update on Monday. I finished Demon Copperhead and David Copperfield, a result in itself #chunksters
Bailed on An intro to English poetry 😴
Still dipping into Holly McNish's delicious anthology and the tagged.
I did get distracted by 2 excellent #Netgalley reads Weyward and The wheel of the year.

All on all, a success. Although the journal still awaits 🙈

@Andrew65

I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new. Don‘t judge me - I have a lot of books. Join in if you want!

#ABookADay2023

I‘m not sure what I‘m getting myself into, but I own #Folio editions of both of these books, so I‘m going to sign up for both of these #chunksters
