#ReadingResolutions Day 2: My #ShelfieSaturday - I am looking forward to rearranging all these books as we prepare to move to a new home (still on campus) in two months‘ time. Quite a few more custom-made shelves of the same size not shown here. 📚🧚🏼‍♀️

RadicalReader @GatheringBooks never seen shelves more bursting with pleasant reading material to while away the hours 6y
Kalalalatja Sooo many books 😍😍😍 6y
CindyE09 Serious envy over here 😍😍 6y
JHSiess Gives me the heeby-jeebies . . . 😳 Illustrates why I am going almost totally digital. But I'm at a point in life when I'm looking forward to retirement, downsizing (I owe 2 3-bedroom houses & want to sell both and buy a condo or smaller home), & lots of vacations. The thought of moving all those books & paying the housekeeper to dust those shelves is overwhelming to me! 🙄 #DifferentStrokesForDifferentFolks👍 #IAmAnOldFart🤷‍♀️ 6y

😧Catherine meets Karl Peter Ulrich, her future husband, when he is 11 years old and already known to be an alcoholic. What?! I had to rewind that bit on the audio to verify I heard correctly!

AlaMich Yeah, THAT'S the guy you wanna marry. Though I'm guessing she probably had little choice in the matter. 7y
Jess_Read_This @Sydsavvy Me too! This guy was nuts. The stuff he did... 7y
Jess_Read_This @AlaMich She was pretty determined to marry better than her mom, escape her mom, and get along. But he was a character. I think he'd be classified in some DSM sociopath type diagnosis. He'd behead rats military style for infractions and make Catherine watch. 7y
Leftcoastzen Wow ! 7y
Sydsavvy That's it, I must read this book! 7y
