I definitely struggled a little bit at the beginning, it was a slow start but towards the middle it really picked up and I was enjoying it a lot more. Great pick @Shadowfat this'll be coming back to you tomorrow 😊

#LMPBC #GroupF #Round8 @hwestfall

InBooksILive @Shadowfat has this made its way safely back to you? 4y
Shadowfat Yes it has, thanks @InBooksILive ! 4y

With this my #LMPBC #round8 group short stories is done. I liked this, didn‘t love it. Glad to have read it but would probably never think of it again. In all honestly I would have probably preferred the authors radio performances.

I‘ll mail out tomorrow.

Leftcoastzen I only have read one of her books , I remember really loving it. 4y
LazyDays @nelehelen @LibrarianRyan Hi guys just letting you know I haven't received my book back yet, and yours Ryan should be off to you this Wed. Hope all is well.🌞 4y
LibrarianRyan @Bookishthoughts for once I‘m. To behind. I have none. I still don‘t have my book back from round 7. Which I really hope to get back. 4y

LazyDays Oh no l hope so. The mail is always so hard to wait for, you never know what happens. 4y
LibrarianRyan @Bookishthoughts I‘m pretty sure it was never mailed. She was supposed to send to me and I only got one book. I‘ve tagged her about a few times but she seems to be absent lately. Luckily this type of thing is a rarity. 4y
nelehelen @Bookishthoughts i have your book! I got a little late so still reading it. I‘ll mail it out to you by end of this week. 4y
nelehelen @LibrarianRyan i still haven‘t gotten my book back from round 6 lol.. been emailing so hopefully i get it back soon. 4y
LibrarianRyan @nelehelen I won‘t lie. I have a book from round 3 but they know I have it and am sending it back soon. We had a hard time in that group. I got almost all the books at once. 4y
LibrarianRyan @nelehelen I lied. Mine is also round 6. Not round 7. Even though I can‘t remember what we read for 7. We had someone pull out at the last minute so we had an abbreviated selection. 4y
LazyDays @nelehelen awesome take your time enjoy. I really just wanted to know where it was. 😊 4y
LibrarianRyan @nelehelen okay and now it seems like my one set of notes is backwards because on Litsy it said 7 but it‘s in my notes for 6 (but then again I was planning on doing the galley for 6 before my demon got a hold of it. She has been better this month. She‘s stuck to chewing just her toys. 4y
LazyDays She may have not liked the smell of my dog.😣 4y
LibrarianRyan @Bookishthoughts Nah, she is going through a phase. We have all sorts of chew toys. We had her broke of the habbit but then I was home for 6 weeks. She started back to chewing books and shoes and everything else not nailed down after I went back to work. We had a good last few days. She did finally destroy her tennis ball. I keep finding little parts of it everywhere. 4y
LazyDays Poor thing 💙 4y

A very different style of King. Much different from what I‘m used to, but a solid story nonetheless! Enjoyed this pick for #Round8 of #LMPBC

@BookwormAHN I‘ll pick up an envelope today and get this on its way to you in the morning! 📖 ✉️

@Mynameisacolour @suvata @rsteve388

BookwormAHN Okay, I'll watch for it. I'm glad you enjoyed it 😺 5y
Mistermandolin Absolutely loved this. Shorter than his usual output and all the better for it. Stylistically perfect. A cracking read and a great pick. 4y

The colossal head known as the “Younger Memnon,“ from the mortuary temple of Ramses in Thebes. Now in London. Created around 1270 BC and installed in the British Museum Egyptian Room #4 in 1834. The arrival of the Younger Memnon in London in 1821 likely inspired the twin sonnets entitled “Ozymandias“ by P.B.Shelley and Horace Smith. #lmpbc #round8 #groupC @laughterhp @unidragonfrag

MariaW You should see the other statue in Egypt, which is still complete. 😊 5y
BookishBelle I loved Ozymandias by Shelley when I was in school. I will still sometimes say, ‘Look upon my works, ye mighty, and despair!‘ when I have finished doing something. 😁 5y
mrsmarch @MariaW I‘d love to go to Egypt! I dream of taking a Nile River cruise and doing nothing but reading Amelia Peabody novels. 5y

mrsmarch @BookishBelle I tend more toward “Abandon all hope ye who enter here” but to each their own 🤣🤣 5y
Catherine_Willoughby @BookishBelle my favourite poem. Brought a poetry book just to have a hard copy of this poem 5y
BookishBelle @mrsmarch 😂😂😂 5y
BookishBelle @Catherine_Willoughby Nice! I think I have it in an anthology somewhere. 🤔 5y
night_shift Huh! It sounded familiar, but I didn't know this. Need to look it up now.. 5y
mrsmarch @UnidragonFrag I printed it out and put it in the book 🤪 It will be there when you reread our notes! 5y

3⭐️. To close to life to call it a great read for me. But for others it will be.

It will be mailed on tomorrow. #lmpbc #round8

TheBookHippie I loved this book . But mostly because of the bond I got reading it with a kiddo who needed it . ❤️ 5y
