35559 You can read any genre you'd like so long as it works for the task. The mazes aren't being selective.

35559 Think not of the books you’ve bought as a “to be read” pile. Instead, think of your bookcase as a wine cellar. You collect books to be read at the right time, the right place, and the right mood.

Found this quote and thought of you all.

No that's no fun - will be worth it once it is done though.

We're waiting on dates from builders for a loft extension. I'm not looking forward to the chaos but at least I'll still have a kitchen and a bathroom.

35559 I'll settle for distracted by Nana in that case! Been making Easter hats and baskets this afternoon after melting chocolate earlier to put in moulds. I'm exhausted!

Ugh, don't they know to leave you alone!

35559 I suspect you'll finish first unless the kids suddenly get very quiet.

It's St Mary's so I want to read it, but the Baskervilles book is non-fiction so slower going than most of mine.

35559 Oh Mel, that's horrible! I hope you can spend time with your mum over Easter and that she is doing ok despite the enormous shock you've all had. Sending a lot of love your way.

35559 Wallbanger (Cocktail, #1) by Alice Clayton

I'm leaning towards this being a grey cover
Mar 22, 2024 06:36AM

35559 I've got one that covers the page count on the go.
Mar 22, 2024 06:27AM

35559 My latest read they went to an amusement park at the end of the pier! Finally cleared that one so Cat's maybe can fill in somewhere else.
Mar 22, 2024 06:21AM

35559 And yes - we can now have multiple mazes! Please don't go too crazy as it's all run off a server in my house that my husband maintains not one of the big AWS or google ones.

35559 So I think I've caught some of the nearly impossible ones - will be keeping an eye out for more.

want/need as tags have now got (to read) in brackets after so those phrases can be used.

35559 I'm about to start archiving some of the more impossible tasks - book depository I'm coming for you!

35559 It's in the title information text on GR which tends to be what I look for to say it's a subtitle.

Cat, can I have your opinion to confirm yes?

35559 Strange Places, Questionable People: Updated With a New Chapter on Kosovo would work if we allow the updated bit after the : which I'm dubious about.
Mar 21, 2024 09:41AM

35559 Time to go title hunting. Not immediately optimistic!
Mar 21, 2024 09:41AM

35559 Oh no Domi! Hope you feel loads better soon. I've been home sick today too.

Roald Dahl was definitely one of my favourites when I was younger. I was the same as Cat with Matilda. James and the Giant Peach was fun too.
