I am taking my time and enjoying this. It is a side story to Douglas Adam's Hitchhiker series. (That he came up with and wrote the outline for.) I only learned about its existence very recently. Of course I immediately found a copy on eBay to purchase. Terry Jones is a member of Monty Python for those that don't already know.

I devoured volume four of “Spy x Family”. Between the assassination plot and the addition of a dog to this fake family, this book had me hooked until the very end. It did get a little dark at times (ex. mentions of war, animal experimentation), however all dogs had happy endings. I absolutely LOVE Bond and I can‘t wait to see more of him in future volumes!

Volume 11 was a rollercoaster that was full of twists and turns. I was not expecting that ending, and my only complaint was that there were spiders 🤢
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️ Chelsea‘s first book, written 20 years ago, back before her “Chelsea Lately” years. As is obvs by the title, it‘s a collection of funny dating stories. I was a religious viewer of her show, and first read this in 2010. I still miss the “Round Table” discussions. I reread on audio and was VERY bummed she‘s not the narrator like she is for her other books. She has since really found her writing “voice,” but it was still a quick, fun revisit.
so-soWhat the heck did I just read?!?!? Didn't age well and super cringy.

I couldn‘t think of a #Chapel book but the prompt makes me think of the song Chapel of Love which is featured heavily in one of my favorite rom coms, sung by Elton John. 💒💍🥂
so-soEh. Kinda slow. Some parts were funny. Kinda hopped all over. (13)

I still can't believe that THE MERCHANT OF VENICE is on our district's 7th grade reading list alongside A MIDSUMMER'S NIGHT'S DREAM. If you had your choice, which play would you rather read as a 12-13-year old?
Happy Birthday to Douglas Adams, one of my favorite authors ever to exist. I remember reading Hitchhiker‘s Guide to the Galaxy as a young teen and feeling like everything I‘d ever read before had been only halfway using the English language. Here was someone who played with it like a toy and who was too good at satire to be fair.
It‘s been too long since I did a reread, so today‘s the day.
DON‘T PANIC

Today is Douglas Adams birthday. This was a formative series for me, and remains one of my favorites. I even have a "42" constellation in the sky of my Dr. Who tattoo.
