pickBook #18 of 2025: “Clare Folk Tales” from Ruth Marshall
It‘s nice to have an easy, fun book every now and then! I liked this little collection of folk tales specifically about County Clare in Ireland. It‘s very well researched but without being academic.

For HyggeHour I‘m camped on the couch with Trixie & the Bob-Whites for #BobWhiteBuddies (Book #18)
I am desperately trying to create a fall vibe with this stuffing popcorn that I may need to get more of 😋& (cold) apple cider 🍎 because it‘s 77 degrees F. here at 8 PM & I want it to be colder & feel like fall. 🍂
My mood is resigned (if still melancholy) to it being Monday tomorrow.😵💫
pick😬Forgot to include this book for the month of February 2025 Book #9
What can I say about this book? For me was more like a reflection of these characters about themselves and life during their travel. A philosophical thinking, but didn‘t feel it like a novel with a plot. But judges have more literary experience than me. 😄 3.5⭐️ I liked it but didn‘t love it. Maybe a re-read? 🤷🏽♀️
pickI loved this one. Iris is a bit of a twit, but she actually kind of knew she was being a twit through the whole story so it made it easier to like her. And Olive. What a kid. #18-2025

I am feeling incredibly indecisive right now. So many books so little time.
I am finishing Disappoint Me this week (so good!) Under the Eye of Big Bird is due back to the library by Friday so need to get on that. Also chipping away at Swans of Harlem and I Captured the Castle.
For my daily walks I have the tagged

so-soJanuary 2025 Book#5
Hard to believe that book with that cover would have many triggers: physical/sexual abuse. London XlX, family try to survive their extreme poverty environment with an abuse, alcoholic father who try to sell his daughter. Sylvia try to escape this world, try to find true love. My opinion is that story try to romanticize John‘s behavior who could be seen as a controlling person to justify his love for Sylvia? Abrupt happy ending?
pick(1966) “The Uncanny Robot“
Last episode, the Terrans captured a Tefroder ship that had been damaged in battle, and also met a new ally, a psychic robot named -- I kid not -- “Lucky Log.“ As Perry and crew move the ship to safe place for further investigation, they get caught up by an automatic wreck-collection system that transports them into Andromeda's forbidden zone. This one is packed with action and incident and does not disappoint.
