Happy new year everyone. Here‘s to a great 2026, filled with joy and happiness.

I gave it a good chance. Got to just over page 50 and thought it‘s not worth continuing it.

The last of the Bob Curran books, at least for now. I stayed up way too late tonight to finish this one, but well worth it. I‘m hoping to find more of his books through the library.

Ready to start tomorrow.

This book is super fun! The person who wrote it also has a blog on medieval things which I might look into!

Merry Christmas all.
My husband got me these! I can‘t wait to dive in. I‘m a little disappointed in the fantasy plant based book. It‘s printed with yellow on black, and the font is atrocious making it unreadable for me. But over all I‘m super happy.

I‘m hoping to get a little time tomorrow morning to start this.m

From Weird True Facts.
Yes this actually happens. We did this about 16 years ago with another friend that also homeschools. I didn‘t know it could explode the microwave though. Take my word it works, don‘t try this at home!

To start tomorrow. I couldn‘t find a listing for the actual book on here though.m

Let‘s just say I‘m super grateful for modern medicine!
It‘s also really cool to have the Middle English on one page and the modern English translation on the next in this book,

A beautiful book with beautiful illustrations.

A creature that swims through sand, a bird that starts fires to catch food, a furry purple striped crab as small as your pinky nail…this book has it. I do love learning new things.

Next in line:)

And so comes to an end my reading tour of Scotland…..for now at least. My ancestors home is just beautiful and I hope to get there one day.

The third book in a row by this author. I‘m enjoying his work. All ready to go tomorrow night.

Some of these places I had heard or read about before, but there were a good few I had not. Including the one place located here in Australia…. Studley Park …I had not come across that one before. You learn something new every day!

This is the last of the books on Scotland I have from the library. I hope to start it tomorrow.

What I loved most about this book is the poetry interspersed among the pages. The gorgeous photos are a close second.

Having enjoyed the last book so much, I am going to go with another from the same author.

I like when I learn something new from books. This book contains the usual Atlantis, Lumeria, Shangri-la. But there were places like Iram that I had not heard of before, and the legend of Bimini. A good book for those who love the mythical and unexplained.

I am so enamoured by my ancestral homeland. I love seeing pictures of all the beautiful places, both urban and wild, be they new, old or ancient.

Having been warned about the anti trans sentiments in this book I‘m choosing to send it back without reading.

I have been wanting to read this for a long time….going to try a chapter every so often and get it down. I‘m close to my crone era.

I admit I have never read any of Val McDermids books, but reading about her beloved Scotland and the places she has set some of her scenes was incredible. She really has. Why for telling a story.

I began this the other day. It‘s been slow going just due to commitments outside the home.
I‘m not a fan of crime books so have not ready and fiction written by her, but she is so descriptive when writing about the place she loves. I‘m really enjoying this.

I finished this one the other day but have been so busy I haven‘t had a chance to post it! One day I‘d love to get to Scotland, but I would need a life time to see everything.

New ebook ready to go tomorrow night.

I don‘t know a lot about Indian mythology, so this was a nice introduction.

A very quick read owing to the fact it has under 50 pages. I have Scottish (and the British mix) ancestry so love learning about anything Scottish!

I can‘t find this in one on litsys database……but I‘m going to start this one tomorrow.

Gorgeous book with the most beautiful photos.

Mum…put that book down and pay attention to me!
Yesterday I had a minor surgical,procedure done. I left early and she didn‘t get her morning cuddles. I got home in the afternoon but smelt like the human vet…she didn‘t want an ounce of me. Today she is all over me. She loves her mum! I‘ll eventually finish this book!

I finished this last night….
I did really enjoy the book. Has a lot of twists and turns.m
I wasn‘t a fan of the ending mind you but it still is a very worth while read (and I‘m hard to please)

Reading this has made me want to plan a trip to Scotland!

Time to give this a go. Land of my ancestors and a place I‘d love to get back to one day.

I was not disappointed at all by this one. I was worried. I had seen reviews saying it was repetitive and not a good read, and while concepts were repeated, that just instilled them more in the mind. I‘m looking forward to any new works that might come in the future.

Last night I started this. I‘m 12% in and enjoying. Crossing everything it remains a winner!

I was meant to sort some bills out first thing this morning but Lunabella is sleeping in my chair so I can‘t just yet(one does not wake a sleeping kitty). I guess I‘ll settle for reading!

My reading buddy fell asleep on the job. Not sure how this is comfy!

I‘m going to start this tomorrow. I‘m a fan of Rebecca Campbell so I have high hopes.

Finished this evening. A consider book of lunar law and rituals.
