CuilinI may be in the minority here, but I‘m loving this book. It‘s like looking at a huge pastoral painted masterpiece and seeing all the details.1mo

Bookwormjillk@Cuilin I actually don‘t mind it but I think it would be better read in chunks or all at once. To me chapter a day is kind of weird for a book like this.1mo
dabbeI did love reading the songs today. They were like ballads--or maybe they were actually ballads. 😂1mo
mcctrishIt‘s just a lot of words setting the scene for an episode of All Creatures Great and Small imo and I‘d like it to start already1mo
willaful@dabbe It's definitely ballads! I'm interested in folk music, so I enjoyed this chapter. I recognized a few of these because they made it to Appalachia and Jean Ritchie sang them.1mo
BookwormjillkI was trying to figure out the tunes for each one but in my mind they all sounded like Chumbawumba.1mo
KAO@Cuilin I‘m with you! I‘m enjoying the book so far (though I‘m not usually so patient with long descriptions), and the word “pastoral” seems perfect. Maybe it‘s just what my anxious mind needs right now!1mo
