Did very well yesterday on the 📕 front. The tagged 📕 I got at the op shop on my way home from rehearsals. I couldn‘t believe my luck that it was still opened & was a bargain at $5. The 📕 in the middle is from my building‘s 📕 swap from an author I‘ve enjoyed in the past & the top 1 was from a st library I discovered while heading to the pub last Sun so visited again yesterday. Was a massive day & I‘m still buggered today. Tempers flared at 🩰.

Jeg I‘m not a Tim Winton fan but this book was very good. Nice copy you have too. Hope your ballet wasn‘t stressful. 1d

This was very interesting. It goes through 500 years of history and points out things and ways we messed up the environment. It's very broad but he does a good job.

This book is unique because I didn't cry while reading it, but I started crying later when I was thinking about it. It's a beautifully done magical realism about hard choices made in circumstances you didn't ask for. You're forced to think about what matters and who your village is. I've also never read such a vivid post-apocalyptic world.

When I checked this book out, the librarian said, "Where did you find that? I can't believe we have a copy in!" Then she realized it was my hold I'd gotten from the holds shelf. ? Two chapters in and I can see why my library has over 20 copies in circulation with a 10+ week wait on holds. I'm immediately hooked!

A future dystopian judgement of our lack of commitment to science and change. So close to home. So timely. So sad.

This book was fascinating. The author thoroughly explained the history of climate science and what goes into the campaigns to discredit it. Everyone should read this

Wow! This book was amazing! Had me 100% hooked. I love Tim Winton but I was reluctant to read this one because I thought it might be too depressing. I‘m sooo glad I did read it! Set in a futuristic Australia where climate change has wreaked havoc and humanity is adapting in order to survive. Gritty and frightening the main character tells his life story to a suspicious stranger in order to survive. Well worth reading.

BarbaraBB Great review! 2mo

This is just such a haunting story of how the end of times could/will happen. It‘s beautiful and got so fraught at one point I couldn‘t read it before bed because my dreams were stressing me awake. A perfect book to read in April for Earth Day which we should honour on all of our days 🌎

mcctrish @Prairiegirl_reading I found cold brew ice cream made by Chapmans last week 🤎🤎 thankfully the weather cooperated sooner than later 2mo
Prairiegirl_reading @mcctrish Chapman‘s has become my go to ice cream since the boycott. The weather here is finally nice too! Hooray for spring! 2mo
mcctrish @Prairiegirl_reading we always bought Chapmans because they have peanut free plants and one of my oldest‘s best friends is allergic. During the pandemic they paid their staff despite closures and then paid bonus pay when lines reopened. How they operate should be the rule not the exception ❤️❤️❤️❤️ 2mo
Prairiegirl_reading That‘s great information! I had no idea! I wasn‘t planning to go back to American brands but I will definitely keep buying Chapmans now. 2mo
BooksandCoffee4Me @mcctrish oh, I need to find this! I never would have thought of the float! 2mo
mcctrish @BooksandCoffee4Me I agree that you do ❤️❤️ 2mo
