It's not short stories, but three storylines: Phoebe being turned into a vamp in modern times, Marcus (her mate) being turned into vamp in American Revolutionary war times and then time with Diana & co dealing with her children and as the link for getting Marcus story. and I really couldn't care less. we only get a chapter or max two in a row before we switch out to the next storyline, so just as I'm feeling interested in, eg, olden times, it switches to Phoebe being an amazing newbie vamp, or Diana being a worrywart mother.

I am struggling so hard with
three stories in it and I care about none of them (so far - 30% thru)
only the brown cover for UNO is seeing me grit my teeth and get it done, one chapter at a time

SHAGGIES!!!!!!

Me too!

I'm getting a wriggle on! my Miles book crush put the brakes on for a while, but I've finished all the books so can now focus properly!

If you'd posted this two days ago I'd barely be scraping double figures. As it is, I managed to finish a couple these last days so I'm almost in sight (not really) of that pesky line!

I've a copy so can join in :)

can we use one that is exactly 3.6?

I do. did I misread the task??

yup! in my defence: I was tired!

tell me you've got a shaggy cow costume for that gorgeous shaggy cat?!

I'm still outraged at Jenny wanting to cow-tip a shaggy!

and am perfectly able to ignore W-nonsense

You can't tip a shaggy (aka highland cow)! their horns would get stuck in the earth and they'd be in a permanent side-plank! silly person!

Doomsday Book by Connie Willis is brilliant, though heavier than Dog, mostly in that it has plague epidemics going on. Foreground is the relationships forged in adversity.But also broadly more straightforward.
Her Blitz books also excellent!

Oh Mele! Many hugs and glad you have good access to treatment x

hurrah! 'cos I've not been moving fast on my one!

Pretty sure that the only way we'd make this work without using The Hound of the Baskerville's is if we use the post colon bit. So I'm on board
