I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!) Feel free to join in!

#ABookADay2023

KadaGul @Octoberwoman I use #Libib to categorize my book📚. The book 📚 I have picked up because of shiny cover, I am either swapping them on #PBS , Dropping & Picking up from Little Free Libraries around the places I grab food 🍲 or do shopping 🛍️. 2y

Return of Sherlock Holmes | Arthur Conan Doyle
post image

It is the end of the semester, so that means while grading, I‘ve been watching a lot of PBS passport shows. I was obviously seduced by this title, since I am always and eternally a Sherlock Holmes fan. I‘ve been trying to listen to The Beekeepers Apprentice, but doesn‘t live up to my fond memories. #sherlock #pbs #documentary

Kimberlone Nice! lol at beekeepers apprentice though. 4y
Saknicole @Kimberlone yeah I really want to finish it, but I‘m not sure I can make it. Idk tho, I was so into them once upon a time 4y

My annual watching of the 1995 miniseries; have watched it most Christmas seasons since my sister got the VHS set at Christmas 1996. Recorded it back this past summer when it was on #pbs. #pemberlittens #wintergames #readnosedreindeer #1995miniseries

Points: 20 + 1 = 21

Started reading this and also watched the first episode of the show. Really liking how this reads so far and the show is good. Follows the book pretty well.

Watched another #Pbs #frontline documentary for #NFNov. This one is an update of a 2012 story on how hard it is to be a child in a family below the poverty line in America. Unfortunately all three families were still struggling five years later, but all the kids were still in school or graduated, which is major!

#TIL (but already knew) My dad is awesome! He works on a federal grant providing assistance to seniors and families finding federal 👇🏻

Megabooks And state programs that they qualify for but aren‘t aware of. The average extra benefit he finds in our 7-county region is 11k!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻 5y
Eggs That‘s awesome @Megabooks ! That‘s a great skill/talent finding such resources 5y
Megabooks @Eggs Thanks!! It‘s been an incredible retirement job for him and he loves talking to people, helping them, and being involved in the wider community. He‘s connecting with a lot of different people than he did in the lumber business, and he is a super extrovert!! 😁 5y

BarbaraBB Your dad sounds incredible again. And I‘m happy he has found a retirement job that gives him so much energy - beside the help it gives the people involved 💕 5y
Megabooks @BarbaraBB Me too! And thank you! If only he read more! 😂 j/k He tried a number of things, mainly because he just didn‘t want to be at home all day, before a family friend suggested him for this position. He gets to do three things he loves data collection and processing, talking to people and helping people. It‘s perfect. 5y
TheAromaofBooks Such an important role! Someone similar to your dad has been an immense help to us finding assistance for my aunt, who is developmentally challenged. So grateful to people like your dad!! 5y
Megabooks @TheAromaofBooks That is awesome!! I‘m so glad there are people helping in other communities!! When people think of programs, they think of food stamps, SSD, Medicaid/Medicare. etc., but there are so many smaller, more specific programs that help people like your aunt. I‘m glad she‘s been able to get help/support. 5y

Just watched the Weinstein episode of #Pbs #frontline for #NFnov. That man completely sickens me. Overall the episode wasn‘t that salacious, but the #TIL is that powerful men will do anything to silence those who could bring them down and abusive men can get away with a lot

#metoo harassed pretty severely by a high school academic team coach, as were many other girls.

readordierachel I'm sorry that happened to you 5y
Megabooks @readordierachel Thanks. I just wish I had known I could speak up. It was the 90s. Unfortunately, a more permissive time. 5y

Rural Oklahoma in early 80's you could usually find me with a book on my Mom's ugly couch. When the weather was good we had 3 TV channels. Masterpiece Theatre's Pride & Prejudice was my Introduction to Jane. Visit to the Library soon followed because I HAD to read the book and after that everything Austen. 😍
