35559 27 hours to go.

Everybody ready?

Which book are you going to read first?

Since I'm still coughing my lungs out, I'll probably choose a digital one. Phone is a little more resistant to the random spit projectile

For some reason, it didn't assume your name, even if it was on the right place.

All fixed now.

35559 I have to read a book published on the 3rd. After much consideration, I'll probably wait a couple of days and read Breath (Scales 'N' Spells #2) by A.J. Sherwood . At a little over 400 pages, is not a bad candidate for towers, considering that I need to alternate over 500 pages with smaller ones.

And I remember enjoying the first one. So. Time to continue with the series. Dragons and Mages, and fated-mates with insta-love here I come!

Yes. Avoid it.

35559 At 7 I used to read books like the Happy Prince And The Swallow Fairy Tales In English: Bedtime Fairy Stories for Kids (The title in Spanish is prettier)

I can't remember if you are a Stephen King fan, but Pet Semetary is one of his best. And creepiest."


I think she started reading it still in elementary school.

35559 It is hot around here too. We have been on the 28ºC for days now. A bit early to be so hot. It's going to be a loooooong dry summer.

Not that anybody would thing that looking at me, since I have been wearing yoga pants and a long sleeve all week. But we can fry eggs on the sidewalks

That sounds intriguing. We have the roasted version, that needs to be taken out of their shell and peel.

Or the ready to eat snacks, also roasted. Salted. Or with honey.
