Cat's Eye | Margaret Atwood

Pickpick

The second Atwood novel I read after The Handmaid‘s Tale blew me away. At times difficult to read because Atwood really gets how children can be cruel. This is the story of an unequal friendship and the toll childhood can take on one‘s later life. The cover made me think of today‘s prompt #walkingintheair
#WinterWonderland

batsy I love this book so much, but it's true—I found it a difficult read, as well, for how it depicts that cruelty. 6y
CoffeeNBooks I thought this was a really good book- different from some of her other books I've read, but really good! 6y
Ruthiella @batsy I need to re-read it. I‘m sure it holds up but would be interested in how my now middle aged perspective would influence my reading of it. 6y

Ruthiella @CoffeeNBooks I‘ve also read a variety of her titles and am always impressed by her range! 6y
Cinfhen Hope to read this one in 2019 but I HATE reading about childhood cruelty 😣it wrecks me! 6y
Ruthiella @Cinfhen I know! It‘s hard to take in books. I read this first in my 20s when I was less sensitive to that kind of thing. 6y
TrishB Have this on my tbr for next year 👍🏻 6y
Ruthiella @TrishB I hope you like it! 😀 6y

#winterwonderland #walkingintheair
When i was little i wanted mary poppins to come to tea, my favourite film. Well this was a perfect sequel and our family Christmas eve film had me walking on air as we left the cinema as my heroine does as she leaves the banks family. Great songs, choreography, and i loved the animation which heralded back to those great Disney animations.

saresmoore Lovely family photo! I loved the movie, too—thought they did an excellent job balancing nostalgia and fun surprises. 6y
andrew61 @saresmoore thanks sara ☺ 6y
batsy Oh, that's wonderful! We hope to catch it today 🙂 6y

Londoners were #WalkingInTheAir December 1952 as a noxious fog descended upon the city. But, a killer also stalked the streets. This narrative nonfiction discusses both catastrophic events. I had slated to read this one this year for a challenge prompt, but I don‘t think I‘ll be getting to it. But, it‘s still on my to read list! #WinterWonderland

Crazeedi Adding! 6y

I read this using @SerialReader as part of my plan to increase Holiday reading. The writing style, while beautiful, is confusing at times, so much so, that I found myself rereading passages frequently. In one of the stories, a supposedly poor man holds court at a party elaborating on all of his marvelous acquisitions. It ends with a comment about “castles in the air” which I needed to Google to understand! #winterwonderland #walkingintheair

Cinfhen Pretty graphics 🌟🌟🌟🌟Happy Holidays my friend 💚❤️💚 6y
TrishB Nice picture ❤️🎄 6y

Day 24 - #Walkingintheair #winterwonderland

The song is from the 1978 animated Christmas film “The Snowman” and is a great practice piece for beginners on any instrument.
Originally sung by a young choir boy named Peter Auty, this song also been covered by Aled Jones, Annie Haslam, Cliff Richard, Elaine Paige, Nightwish, Sally Harmon, The Shadows, George Winston and many others.

Cinfhen That snowman is too cute 💕☃️#Cheers 💚❤️💚 6y
EadieB @Cinfhen I agree! 6y
TrishB Cool ❄️ ⛄️ 6y
