I'm a proud Ravenclaw. 💙
After a conjunctivitis in both eyes (best gift from the ducklings) I now lie on the sofa with some infection... 😷
Gives me time to finish my audiobook, I guess...

julesG Get well soon! Ducklings of every age and size bring home the weirdest things. My ducklings brought home cold and diarrhoea this week. 😭 I'm trying my level best not to catch anything right now. 5y
LiljaPleasant @julesG oh no... That we had 2 weeks ago 🙈 Hope you'll make it through without catching it 5y
julesG Thanks 5y

Here's one of my most treasured possessions. When I look at them I'll always remember a most wonderful week in Mister Winter's homeland and a heavy as hell suitcase 🤣

Good morning!
Do you read books in languages other than your mother tounge?

#readingmom #jojomoyes #danish

julesG Yep. I read in English, which is not my mother tongue. I read children's books in French and the Scandinavian languages. And I love reading manuals in other languages - but I don't consider them "books" 5y
LiljaPleasant @julesG That's nice. I'd love to refresh my french, but since I want to learn spanish as well, I moght just end up totally confused 🤣 Did you learn one of the scandinavian languages? 5y
julesG I picked up a bit here and there and started learning Swedish properly at the local community college and through Duolingo. At the moment I'm brushing up on my French with Duolingo. Since I started learning English and French at the same time (aged 10), I understand that it can be confusing. Have you tried Duolingo? It's very good for brushing up on a language and learning a new one. 5y
LiljaPleasant No. Never tried that one before. But I heard a lot about it and how everyone seems to be quite pleased with Duolingo. So I should probably finally get it myself 🤣 5y

When your ducklings let you sleep at night and decide night is over at 7a.m. you gladly sit in their room with your book and breakfast to listen to their "conversation" ?

So I set my GR goal to 117 books... Why? Because with the design I chose for my readingjournal that's how many boxes I could fit on the page 🤣
Tithe is actually a reread for me, I remember to have loved the book many years ago and found out that there were 3 in the series. I enjoy Blacks fearie tales!
