Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19204 comments Camilla wrote: "Want to come over, Rusalka? My house could use a good cleaning?"

Sure!


message 402: by Camilla (new)

Camilla | 2098 comments Also the windows need washing.

Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19204 comments Peggy wrote: "Mine too!

Why not abandon the book Rus? I mean, the moment you start preferring house cleaning over reading, there's something seriously wrong with the book.."


Because it's a classic. It's In Cold Blood. So I am thinking it's me. And it fits so many Zodiac things I have no other read for.
Also, there is a lot of cleaning to get the house back to normal after the building works. And it's hard to read when the place is covered in plaster dust. But ...
Maybe it gets better?

Look, I am still fine if this means a trip to Finland.


message 405: by Lilisa (new)

Lilisa | 2770 comments I'm wanting to find work building a cathedral in 12th century England, but my pig was stolen and I've ended up killing the thief...I'm also in 1930s Portugal and find myself married to Antonio who has a lover - Pedro, and I'm going to have to deal with this complex relationship...

Life is getting in the way. Terribly getting in the way. I also admit that since I have so little time for reading I have been very, very picky about what I read. Still, I am reading The Last Report on the Miracles at Little No Horse and enjoying it.

Janice (jamasc) | 59882 comments I'm in Greece with Peggy and Lisa. And in Little No Horse, waiting for Sandra to find her way there. I'm also holed up in a tunnel in the Blackmountain reading these other two books so when I'm finished them, I can focus on what lies ahead in these tunnels.

You're life sounds so complicated Lilisa!


message 413: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 19136 comments I completely understand, Sandra. Prior to this book, I hadn’t picked up anything for a week and a half. Just busy and maybe a bit of a slump for me. When I finally had down time, I was too tired to pick anything up.
