Chasing Cezanne

so-so

The 2nd 📖 completed to round up my first #readathon #24B4Monday

I thought it lacked Mayle's usual pomp for detailing essence of the setting of his books. The MC was trotting different corners of the continent and across the ocean, so busy rushed plot lacked depth ;(
The trio of characters were likeable but not developed enough.

Chasing Cezanne: A Novel | Peter Mayle

Thank you @greenreads for sharing this #24B4Monday 'report card'
0000 here and I'm surprised I clocked in 8hrs for my first #readathon ;D

Switched from audio of #heyCarrots to the hardcover when I noticed missing chapters in audiobook. I'd planned to reread on print anyway but decided to complete 📗.

Tho less 📚 than hoped, pleased with attempt and adding titles to March Reads. Better plan for the next!

sheshedbooks You did great! 👏👏👏 I'm out too. 😂 I'm preparing for the week plus waiting for discussions to be posted. 5y

BookishMe @greenreads thank you 🤗🤗 actually stoked to continue reading to add to the month count ;p 5y

TheAromaofBooks Missing chapters?! That would be quite annoying! 5y

BookishMe @TheAromaofBooks I am very surprised too as the first half matched ebook. Then after the chapter Anne to the Rescue, I thought I had missed the narration. I didn't rewind, since I could bridge the gap reading the book. Then with last 50mins left in the audiobook, I checked chapters in the book and spotted the discrepancy. Was kinda eager to finish audio but oh well ;o 5y

Trashcanman I don't understand how anyone can support Trump. Even with a mental illness I know he's a hack. The worst president ever 5y

BookishMe @Trashcanman I am with you but I don't want to ruffle feathers. I seriously thought that post, book was a joke. Then again, it'll be naive of me to believe everyone here has same political views. And mental illness is not lack of intelligence ;)) very glad to see your posts these days ;D 5y

Trashcanman @BookishMe I thought it was a spoof as well. I truly cannot comprehend how someone can logically even attempt to argue the fact that he's a good president much less the greatest president ever. I'm just going to make some popcorn. Thank you for the kind words. 🤗🤗 5y

BookishMe @Trashcanman popcorn sounds great! 😋Have a restful night 😴😴 5y

Trashcanman @BookishMe you too!😊♥️ 5y

📖 Vintage Murakami was my lunchtime read earlier at work #AuthorAMonth
Though I should really try finish the tagged soon cos it's due at the library this week!

📖 Love in Small Letters by Francesc Miralles

📖 I was surprised I had to think hard for this ;o not so affected by the outbreak here but I think I was just unusually grumpy 🙄
I cleared most of work backlog & son brought back term results that were better than expected.
