I‘m about to begin my 30th consecutive Readathon in bed, with my daily short story and my impractical body pillow for company. Good times. #deweyapril #readathon

Jenken1998 I was just trying to figure out how many I have done. I know it's been many years now. I am starting out at work but have the audiobooks lined up for that. I only have to work until noon so it's not that bad. Happy reading! 2y
Soubhiville He‘s cute! 2y
xicanti @Jenken1998 the same to you! 2y

“Do you have a title yet?' asked Mandy. “How about The Goat Whisperer?“
“Not bad, Mandy, not bad. But I think I'll call it G is for Goat.“
“Well, isn't that a little obvious?“
“Exactly. Keep it simple. This English lady wrote a bestseller, H is for Hawk. I read it. Nothing happens except she is alone and depressed and lives with this hawk that she feeds bits of torn-up rabbit and trains to hunt. My book will be way, way better.“

BkClubCare 😊 H is for Hawk is one of my favorite audiobooks ever. 3y
Lindy @BkClubCare I love it too 👯‍♂️ 3y

5🌟Beautiful and inviting! Just so dam good! These stories focus on character who's lives have been touched by tramatic circumstances, and are now trying their best to cope. These characters had an intriguing connection with animals. Being immersed in these characters minds was so emotional. I felt their anger, grief, longing, desperation, sorror and bargaining so intently. Rose's prose pulled me in like a tight hug, I didn't dare let go! #canlit
