A great read from my #14Books14Weeks stack. I‘ve wanted to read this for awhile and really enjoyed Atwood‘s take on The Odyssey. Thank you so much @BarbaraBB for sending me this copy! ♥️

Ruthiella I really liked this too. 2d
BarbaraBB Glad you enjoyed it! 2d

I cleaned out the garden of weeds. Feel so accomplished! My neighbors stopped by to tell me how great it looked sans weeds. Now I am reading a library book on the porch. It‘s breezy but blue skies with some drifting cumulus clouds-puff balls. ☁️
Earlier this morning I met my sister for coffee. ☕️🩷
Later today we are going to Pepe‘s for pizza. 🍕
Such a lovely day; I won‘t mind work tomorrow.

Salamander | Thomas Wharton

Hay fever hit me hard today, so what better way to spend a rainy day than finishing up this book? I enjoyed Salamander - it wasn't a favourite and I felt a little lost at points, but that could be because it took me a little longer to get through due to real-life busy-ness getting in my way. Solid 7 or 8 out of 10, though.

dabbe Hope you feel better soon. 💙🩵💙 3d

The storytelling is compelling and genuine, featuring a strong female protagonist who navigates challenges with poise and confidence. It's evident that the author conducted thorough research and every detail is grounded in real events.

Hey Nostradamus! | Douglas Coupland

Pickpick

Hey Nostradamus!, By Douglas Coupland (2003 🇨🇦)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

Premise: A 1988 school shooting in Greater Vancouver reverberates across fifteen years.

Review: I graduated high school a year before the 1999 Columbine shooting and was 21 on 9/11, two events which haunt this novel. Cont.

Mattsbookaday I say this because this is clearly a novel of its time and I really have no idea how younger readers would engage with it. But for me, I found this remarkable: thought-provoking, insightful, and unsettling in its handling of big themes such as love, loss, grief, survivor‘s guilt, purity, faith, and the contradictory roles religion and faith can play in our lives. A remarkable short novel. 2w

Waiting to meet a friend for dinner & coffee at a coffee shop that is new to me. Only 12 minutes from work, by the airport. A little further for him, but he doesn‘t mind. He was my mentor- I student taught with him. ❤️ Delicious looking croissants for tomorrow‘s breakfast are in the white boxes.🥐

TheBookHippie How lovely. ♥️ 2w

Early morning read & coffee.
It‘s a cold 45 degrees, pouring rain. Reading about a garden & love in midst of war makes me feel hope for sunshine.
