For #SeriesLove2025 , I have decided to read all the Beatrix Potter books. In January, I read The Tale of Peter Rabbit, which was like visiting a dear old friend, and The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin, which I had not read before. Although Squirrel Nutkin is adorable to look at, I was quite surprised by his rudeness of manner! 🐿️

pickWhile I did end up liking this — I liked Star and was pushing for her to get a life separate from her sister — the ending felt a little anticlimactic. I had a picture in my head of Jamie Gertz, who played Star in The Lost Boys. I also started The Martian Chronicles for #ClassicLSFBC for my new #audiowalk book.
I have about 3 hours left in this, so I should finish it soon. It ended up not being boring at all. I was afraid twisting my knee was going to set me back a lot, but my physical therapy went well yesterday and I had a good, long #audiowalk today with no pain.
My knee allowed me to walk today but for a shorter distance than usual. I actually had to wear a coat today as it was in the high 20s. I‘m interested to see how Star‘s and Flora‘s stories converge. #audiowalk
That‘s the thing about dual timeline stories— just when you get really interested in one timeline, the narrative switches to the other. Oh well, I can deal with it. This is the perfect weather for me — sunny, nice breeze, low of 40° and high of 66°. #audiowalk
Well, for a whole chapter Star has managed to live her life a little separate from CeCe. I hope that bodes well for the rest of the book. #audiowalk
I‘m not really sure how Riley is going to make this story interesting, as Star lives her life being dictated to by her sister, CeCe, but we‘ll see. I‘m not sure how I‘ll feel when I get to CeCe‘s book because I really don‘t like her. #audiowalk
“dance, little baby, dance up high.”
The story is very visually appealing. The father is a fisherman and owns his own boat. He is excited for his child to see their first fish. This is a good family story for all ages.
