rubyslippersreads I‘ve had the Gaskell biography on my TBR forever, but when I do read it, I‘ll certainly take it with a grain of salt. 2y

BarkingMadRead @rubyslippersreads I‘ll be interested to hear how you liked it…. Or not 🤣 2y

suvata This was a great chapter. But I did spend a lot of time going back and forth trying to decide if I liked Mary or not. And, I had completely forgotten that the Brontë sisters published under the surname of Bell. 2y

The Truth About Animals: Stoned Sloths, Lovelorn Hippos, and Other Tales from the Wild Side of Wildlife | Lucy Cooke

#julyjourneys #tellthetruth
One of my absolute favorite nonfiction books about animals, Cooke is funny and filled with bizarre and fascinating facts about many animals we don't often think about - who knew eel breeding was a complete mystery to scientists??

Eggs Ya gotta love “lovelorn hippos” 4y

ChaoticMissAdventures @Eggs that section is so fascinating! And helped me on trivia night once when the subject of hippos taking over Colombia came up! 4y

Eggs Then it paid for itself!!! Bonus🤗 @ChaoticMissAdventures (edited) 4y
