Despite having #CovidBrain I still managed to finish 7 books this week! I struggled with BW for the first 200 pages but then I flew through the final 150 pages. I didn‘t love it as much as @BarbaraBB but I did figure out what was what. None of these books were outstanding but I did get a few good laughs from Helen Ellis 😁 I‘m definitely feeling much better and appreciate all your get well wishes 🥰

Slow Fire Burning | Paula Hawkins

pick

Not every thriller needs to be 100% plausible to be 100% enjoyable. A solid #MurderMystery from Paula Hawkins. A young man living on a houseboat is found stabbed to death by a nosey neighbor. Who would want this man dead? And why does the neighbor want to frame an author‘s wife?? At first I thought my #CovidBrain wouldn‘t keep up but narration by Rosamund Pike made it easy.

Embassy Wife: A Novel | Katie Crouch

This audio is pretty zany & a bit mindless but perfect for my #CovidBrain and it‘s a lighter look at #Namibia #ReadingAfrica2022 #Hoopla 🎧

Cinfhen @BarbaraBB @Librarybelle 3y

Librarybelle Mindless is good! 3y

BarbaraBB Seems perfect under the circumstances indeed. I keep thinking of how you got infected with your booster. So far people with a booster have hardly got it. But Israel is always my prediction for Holland. 😳 3y

Cinfhen My booster will reach its 6 month period at the end of February so it was on the lower end of effectiveness @BarbaraBB but the good news is that I‘m only having flu symptoms & nothing like chest or breathing pains. It‘s basically like any other bad winter cold. 3y

Cinfhen Mindless is VERY good @Librarybelle xx 3y

BookBabe @Cinfhen sorry you‘re not feeling well! Praying for you. 🙏🏻 3y

Simona @BarbaraBB At my work we have to taste every second day (regardless the status) and it is very surprising how many people with the booster get sick, but fortunately with mild symptoms. 3y

Simona Take care @Cinfhen ❣️ 3y

Cathythoughts Take care Cindy 😘 3y

mrp27 Feel better soon. 3y

Megabooks 💕💕💕💕 3y

BarbaraBB @Simona Really? We‘d probably be surprised how many people are infected here without knowing it then! 3y

Bookzombie I haven‘t been on in a couple of days. Sorry to hear you have Covid. I hope the symptoms aren‘t too bad and pass quickly. 💕 3y

Ruthiella Hope you feel better soon! 🥴❤️ 3y

Cinfhen I had a good nights sleep @Ruthiella @Bookzombie @Megabooks @mrp27 @Cathythoughts @Simona @BarbaraBB @BookBabe THANK YOU ALL for your prayers and good wishes 💜Hopefully the worst is behind me🙏🏼 3y

Cinfhen @Simona @BarbaraBB I know SEVERAL people who were asymptotic and had no clue they had Covid but only found out during a routine test for either travel, or work function that required pre-testing. I‘m glad you‘re both staying safe♥️ 3y

TrishB @Simona @BarbaraBB we have to test to go onto campus too. We‘re very clear that the booster doesn‘t stop you getting it- just much less likely to end up in hospital! Glad you‘re feeling a bit better Cindy ❤️ 3y

Cinfhen Thanks @TrishB xx 😘 3y

BarbaraBB We have to show our QR (3G) to get into events, museums, theaters, restaurants etc (all of which have just reopened today) but no pre-testing. But our government still doesn‘t have a clue and changes its policy weekly so we‘ll be probably pre-testing in a few weeks too 😉. Happy you‘re feeling a little better Cindy! 🤍 @Simona @TrishB (edited) 3y

Cinfhen The rules keep changing here too and truthfully nothing has changed the course of the pandemic @BarbaraBB it just keeps spreading & morphing but fewer people are dying, so that‘s a HUGE relief 😅 3y

hello! hello! | Matthew Cordell

I've missed you, #Littens!

I'm a college professor, & this semester has been ROUGH. This meme says it all! I'm truly not complaining - I'm very blessed to have a job at all, much less one I love. But #covidbrain has certainly affected my reading life. About two weeks left, so I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. So excited to regularly engage with you again! ♥

Amiable How‘s the BU freshman doing? 4y

mom2bugnbee @Amiable Shes doing great. ♥ I wish that she would get out a bit more (although I understand her hesitancy - she doesn't want to be sent home) & I worry that she isn't having a typical college experience, but then I remember that this IS typical for her, since she knows no different. She assures me that she's happy & her grades are great. I miss her. 4y

Amiable @mom2bugnbee Hopefully with the good news about the efficacy of the Pfizer vaccine we might be able to start moving back to the old normal in enough time for her to have at least a partial college experience that was typical for us! 4y

Suet624 Yay!!! 4y

The Bookshop on the Corner: A Novel | Jenny Colgan

This is exactly what my #covidbrain needs right now after a challenging first week of teaching. Easy read, lovely setting, interesting characters - it's just lovely thus far. Predictable, but so cozy. #currentread #currentlyreading #24B4Monday

Librarianaut Thanks for posting the recommendation! I just finished my first full week of teaching, too. All I can say is...it was banana-pants!! 4y

CindiB Completely agree. Her books can be a refreshing glass of water. 4y

mom2bugnbee @CindiB Perfect descriptor! 4y

mom2bugnbee @Librarianaut Best wishes for a smoother week! 4y
