This is a reread for me of Anne of Green Gable # 7. I read it the first time over ten years ago and I didn‘t remember much. A nice happy escape with some laugh out loud moments. I look forward to the #KindredSpiritsBuddyRead discussion on Saturday.

For week 1 of #weeklyfavorites, the only thing I finished was the short story for #noplacelikeholmes.

For this week, I‘ll only be finishing this week‘s short story for #noplacelikeholmes. I don‘t think I‘ll be finishing anything else.

Currently Reading

My Healthy Noggin - Bokinia Colbert (progress: 30%)
The Starless Sea - Erin Morgenstern (progress: 57%)
Assassin‘s Apprentice - Robin Hobb (progress: 24%)

I got myself a bit of a treat that's not in the database: Agatha Christie's England: A Map and Guide from Herb Lester Associates, written and researched by Caroline Crampton. Now I can get a sense of the geography of the Christies I read each month.

Kristin_Reads So cool! 13h

I really liked the two sisters in the first section but the doctor is soooo boring. Made it about 20% before bailing.

I think I liked this better the first time I read it, 2 years ago. I still like it because there's something about LMM's writing that always appeals to me. But, this time Ellen West being a terrible sister and the way she talks to her cat irritated me. And then there was Mr. Meredith, who kept wishing a woman would come along and do all his work for him. 🙄

BarbaraJean Uggghh, Mr. Meredith bothered me so much more this time around!! 13h
lauraisntwilder @BarbaraJean I honestly don't think I noticed him much last time I read it. This time, I kept wanting someone to tell him he was being a horrible father. Rachel Lynde would have! 13h

Well, it's not the best showing. Most are well before my time. Though the ones I have seen are mainly because my mother liked watching the old movies.

Play? @Read4life @AnnCrystal @WildAlaskaBibliophile @Deblovestoread @ImperfectCJ @Leftcoastzen @Kshakal @TheBookHippie @JenReadsAlot

dabbe The Blockbuster Video store by my house had a HUGE section of old movies back when they were big in the 1980s. My mom, younger sister, and I would watch them together. Such fond memories. Thanks for playing and sharing. 🍿❣️🎬 18h
