Ha! Aspiring novelist Dixon doesn‘t have a high regard for Dickens!

Get yourself cosy and join in our Sunday night #HyggeHour readathon. I'm going to start the tagged.
What will you be reading? 📚🍫🕯☕️

@TheBookHippie @Chrissyreadit

Chrissyreadit Ahhh! There was no Hygge yesterday 😭 But hopefully a genuine calm. Today is the criminal case for Brynne‘s ex. We spent yesterday making plans for safety just in case and prepping support. We do not have to go to court and that is a gift but hopefully she will leave the state peacefully after today. @TheBookHippie @AllDebooks 2d
AllDebooks @Chrissyreadit oh jeez. That sounds like a tough time for you all. Hope you're all okay. Sendung hugs xxx 2d

I found this boarding pass in my used book!
John here is going from Shannon to London on the 29th of May (year unknown) and he is in the smoking section!

Amazing how an Ireland to England flight stub ends up in a used bookstore in Portland Oregon.

LiteraryinPA Whoa! If there was still a smoking section in the plane, it was probably a while ago! 3d
TheBookgeekFrau This is great!! 🤩🤩 I love finding things in used books! 3d
Meshell1313 Soo fun! 3d

Found a nail in my tire as I was running errands, now patiently waiting the tire guys to clear me to drive, and this is why we never leave home without a book.
Starting this #bookedintime read so far it is a bit wordy for me but going to push through and hope I can get in the groove

I had to look up the word ‘bridewell‘. It was the opposite of what I thought it meant.

kspenmoll Thanks! I have not started this book yet! 1w
sarahbarnes Did not know that either. 1w
Suet624 @sarahbarnes the word sounds so upbeat! 1w

Itchyfeetreader Oh I hadn‘t picked something out for this month so considering - unless I have something on my shelf that works as I am diligently trying to clear the bought but not read trolley! 2w
Bookwormjillk Just picked this up from the library! 2w
Cuilin @Itchyfeetreader I completely understand, trying to read through the TBR! Though perhaps maybe your local Library may have it 🤞 2w
Cuilin @Bookwormjillk fabulous! 2w
rwmg I'm probably going to sit this one out, sorry. I just find these readalongs don't work for me. But I am curious. Doesn't this book have chapters 16 and 17? 1w
Cuilin @rwmg no worries!! Another typo. 🤦‍♀️ (edited) 1w

“All night long he would walk the ship, from bow to stern, from dusk until quarterlight, that stick like limping man from Connemara with the drooping shoulders and ash-coloured clothes”.
