@dabbe my #moodboardcontest #mbc entry a little watching my pets for smiles, memes for sarcasm ish truth ish stuff and always a little hope. The wolf and Red are a favorite comforting theme of mine and the Banksy quote is a favorite theme of mine. the frogs i saved because they cracked me up. Congrats again and thanks for this fun celebration of you!
This month‘s #bookclub pick was undoubtedly the one the least amount of people finished (2/3s did not), but I am not sure why. I thought it was a quick read. Sold into slavery at six years old, Little Flower‘s life certainly goes from one tragedy to the next for most of the book. Linjing, her owner, does grow as a character but not before the reader wants her to receive some of the suffering her jealousy causes. Well-researched & fast paced!
Such melodrama! With hints of #Clarissa, except the heroine is less good. The villain is a caricature and the hero is not particularly appealing. But it did keep me reading and there were moments of humor, so I‘ll give it a weak pick. #readyourKobo @CBee
A good one! A good one for our book club I think - we‘ll see how the rest feel when we meet at the end of March.
“Freed from words and images, released from books which sleep, spellbound, on library shelves, artistic inspiration remains, in Mirbeau‘s novel, on the level of pain that cannot be voiced in words.“ ~Robert Ziegler

It‘s here! My #kobo came today, and I started East Lynn for my #readyourKobo I can‘t believe how light it is! @CBee
Getting definite #Clarissa vibes from this one, and I‘m only 3% in.
This is for our book club and I put the other two aside to start this one. Easily getting into it!
