hashtagBrigade

I am starting this one today - in between #AudioReSet and my current audiobook. I got a Penguin Classic Edition of this one, and it is also free on Audible, so I downloaded it to switch between the two :) I am excited to start!!

I‘m going with library a ebook/audiobook combo this month unless, like with Cranford, I develop such a passion that I break down and buy a copy!

I‘m still working on (and enjoying) the tagged book (thanks to my bad habit of having several reads going at once), but for those of you interested in a sequel …

Leftcoastzen Forgot to start 🙄😳 2d

mcctrish benumbed arms - this a going to be lovely 2d

Ruthiella The first chapter was a breeze. ❤️ 2d

dabbe I think “moist“ was used in different forms more than once! 🤣 I love the setup to a long flashback of what happens at Dorlcote Mill on the Floss River. No dental floss here whatsoever! 🤩 2d

Sparklemn “There is a remnant still of last year‘s golden clusters of beehive-ricks rising at intervals beyond the hedgerows…” Such beautiful writing! 1d

Bklover So far so good! 1d

AllDebooks This was a perfect opening, such evocative writing. 19h

Leftcoastzen Very descriptive, I‘m interested. 17h

New day, new month, new #HashtagBrigade book.

I‘ve fallen behind on so many reads and have found myself reaching for quick reads or books where I really don‘t have to think. Maybe this will be the month to get back on track.

#Zeke has had a good few days, which is nice. He‘s more active recently, and his only issue is not eating the food best for his issue (we see a specialist the end of this month for an official diagnosis). #CatsOfLitsy

BarkingMadRead Hugs to Zeke! 2d

Librarybelle Thanks, @BarkingMadRead ! 2d
