I was 99% teasing. Particularly as I remembered that you are on audiobooks. I'm a bit word focused when I listen, like sometimes visualise words. So in case you are that way inclined, just helping.

It is funny what things just look very wrong you can't leave alone though. This was one of those. I'd seriously be interested in what cultural things/mistakes yourself or others have to correct and can't let pass.

Well, on St Patricks day the irish prime minister goes to the White House to give American President a bowl of shamrock. The Pres than almost always tries to call him call him by Irish title "Teachact" - never get tired of listening to that pronunciation ;-p

I got about 1/3 through and realized I was getting bogged down so I put it aside. I read the first 2 in fairly quick succession last year and - yes - there is such a thing as too much of a good thing!!

Are you enjoying it?

Mariab | 3059 comments Hi!, I was AWOL three days, now I'm here again.
Bookish, I'm in London (again)


message 162: by Peggy (new)

Peggy (pebbles84) | 15868 comments Margo, I'm about half way through now. It seems a bit slower than the others and because I always read it together with another book, I don't feel as into it as with the other two books. I'm worried though that if I put it aside I'll never get back to it.

Amanda (Mandy) | 762 comments Now that the toppler is over, I am back in Atlanta. I am trying to navigate the politics between different supernatural groups while solving a murder. This is the book I started for the twin reading challenge.

Still have about 500 pages to go, so finally it starts to seem a bit manageable!

I had to go peek at your profile because I thought that sounded very much like Hawaii. I bought that book the first time I was in Hawaii. I really enjoyed it.
