PIFM - Chat/Banter Review Your November Read

[Kirsten]

In my library, when you request an ILL, it goes to the same people that choose what to purchase for the library. It it's cheap enough OR if it's less than 5 years old, they just purchase it. There's also a $2 fee for interlibrary loans. But I don't think that's too much.

[Amber]

No charge for ILL here in Belleville, Kirsten.

[Perri]

Interesting Kirsten. If it's a new book ( a year) they want to consider buying it, and often do. Pretty sweet for me. There's no cost for ILL loans here either, but $2 isn't bad. I don't keep books anyway. I volunteer at my library so that makes it easier for my guilt to request books :)

[Amber]

Well, like I said earlier, Perri, I was more afraid of being laughed at over the title of the book about sex advice. I'd be equally afraid of being laughed at for this one: 50 Ways to Eat Cock: Healthy Chicken Recipes with Balls ( https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... ), which I just added to my TBR today.

I have a hard time picturing you embarrassed about anything Amber. Are you not a warrior!?!

[Amber]

Warrior or not, I get embarrassed just as easily as a non-warrior.

[Dana]

lol! I don't blame you for those two

[Amber]

Thanks, Dana.

I finished my second book of the tie I had in November, Under Dark Waters. It happens to be an outstanding travelogue of British Columbia as well as an interesting mystery. A poet, Else Seel (which happens to be a true story), is a subject of one of the mysteries. She left Berlin suddenly to marry a Canadian trapper who advertised in a local paper. The second mystery is the death of the protagonist's husband who crashed his plane in the Canadian wilderness during a nasty storm.

Cool! I wasn't aware it that. I added the original title to the book and it's more likely my library will be willing to buy it :-)

To all of you in the USA - wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving!

[Amber]

Thank you, Ann.

[Perri]

Thanks Ann, is there an equivalent in UK? I know Canada celebrates in October

[Amber]

I don't think so, Perri.

Next holiday: Christmas.

Thank you, Ann. I have just put my turkey in it's brine. I love Thanksgiving dinner.

Perri, Amber is right on that one - there's no other equivalent in the UK.

Patricia - that sounds yum.

[Dana]

So jealous - I wish Thanksgiving was this weekend here. Sounds yummy Patricia! I might still take advantage of some black friday deals though ;)

[Perri]

Like a day of gratitude?

[Vicki Willis]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
I hope you all have a great day no matter where you are or what you are celebrating (or not celebrating).

I am about to start making pies to take to my Moms's house. Mmmmm pie... :)

I also have been reading my November pick All The Pretty Girls and it is great! Looks like I have another series to add to my list.

[Amber]

They might have something along those lines, Perri, but I don't think they call it "Thanksgiving."

[Agnieszka]

Grrrrrr my internet connection at home is broken and the app is even worse than I remember. I have no idea when I'll be online again :-(

Dana, I hope I've seen it correctly and there's a tie between Little Women & P&P so in this case my vote goes to P&P - I read this book at least 3 times and loved it. Even if it's my second favorite by Austen I can fully recommend it. In case my vote leads to another tie feel free to change it to the other one - I want to read this one as well :-)

[Perri]

Just finished a PIFM book from June or July Liked very much

@Perri can't wait to hear what you think of it. I kept thinking about it after I finished.
