Black Jack | Osamu Tezuka, Camellia Nieh
post image

We had to put down Black Jack today. He was so feisty that it was difficult to do too many tests on him. He went in about three weeks ago, and we started treating him for IBS, hoping for the simplest solution. Stacy was home from work today and heard him crying, found him breathing heavy and lethargic. Luckily, we live close to work and the vet. An emergency x-ray found a large tumor around his lungs. There really wasn't anything else to do.🌈

I‘m 30% in, and this is such a fun romp with a lovely group of octogenarians! Perfect 🎧 📖 to listen to while I catch up on progress notes.

I had another book picked for my #blackjack prompt for #booked2021 and #pop21, but maybe I‘ll use this one instead.

LeahBergen I thought this was a fun read, too. 4y
Cinfhen Loved this 🎧book!!!! It was my choice ♥️book two comes out September 🎉 4y
BarbaraBB I just got a copy of this book too, I heard so many good things about it! 4y

Just delightful!!! I immediately fell in love with this band of merry pensioners 😉❤️
Four seniors living in a retirement village form a club where they crime solve cold cases, until an actual murder takes place in their own community.
Charming, witty, CLEVER and straight up FUN.
AWESOME audio narration
And @Coffeeandabook has shared that Steven Spielberg has bought the book rights ~ PERFECT 👌🏽 👇🏼

Cinfhen I forgot...this is my February #BookSpin @TheAromaofBooks 💓💓💓 4y
TheAromaofBooks Oh this one sounds so fun!! 4y

I read this to fulfill the manga task on Bookriot's Read Harder Challenge for this year. This is the first manga I've read and I really liked it. I was surprised at how quickly I got used to reading right to left.

Man what a book! Because I watched the movies before hand I kind of knew what would happen in the first two books but this one was all new to me. This quest had my heart rate going for so many events. Not sure I‘m prepared to pick up the fourth book yet. My heart goes out to Thalia though.

Black Jack Randall is at the top of the #charactersonthenaughtylist for his hideous torture and altogether bad behavior. (Does he even have a nice side?) On the other hand (sorry, bad pun), Claire and Jamie are #naughtycharacters for a whole different reason! #seasonsreadings2016 #outlander #blackjack #jamieandclaire #droughtlander

Texreader You got those characterizations perfect!! 8y
Leelee08 ❤❤❤❤❤❤ 8y
Zelma Randall does love his brother but that's about his only redeeming quality. 😬 8y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Zelma Ah, good call. One healthy emotion. Not enough to redeem the rest of his heinous behavior. 😫 8y
