#Naturalitsy #HyggeHourReadathon

Spending my #HyggeHour listening to the last 30 minutes of the tagged book for #ChildrensClassicReas2025 & then finishing up Accidents Happen, my final book of August.

I‘m drinking lemonade & eating a cherry turnover. I‘m very happy that tomorrow is a holiday, even though I do need to put in a couple hours of work.

Chrissyreadit what do you think of the book? 6d
TheBookHippie @Chrissyreadit I adored it 😊 6d

TheBookHippie @Chrissyreadit it‘s such zen. 6d

#showandtelltuesday I‘ve been painting the basement, the rec room? It‘s where the boys used to play video games, the exercise equipment is and the Lego sets are going to be displayed. Might be the future home to my yoga practice 🤷🏻‍♀️

Here‘s my latest critter. I made most of it on our long drive to my in-laws‘ house and the rest while I was there. My hubs suggested the rainbow horn and I think it works. #ShowandTellTuesdat

Clare-Dragonfly Wow, is that crochet? I feel like knitting and crochet are distinctly different to an experienced eye—but as a knitter, I definitely would have thought this was knit if not for the crochet hook! 2w
Lauredhel @Clare-Dragonfly maybe it's the small screen/your eyes ? I can clearly see the double crochets, popcorns, puff stitches, front post stitches etc. There are some stitch patterns that look more similar to knitting (slip stitch in back loops) though (edited) 2w

Krabat and the Sorcerer's Mill | Otfried Preussler
post image
Pickpick

Krabat,an orphan,teenage boy,becomes one of 12 apprentices at a mysterious mill.However,their Meister teaches more than how to operate a mill-he is a sorcerer-& soon Krabat becomes versed in the art of magic. Yet it all comes at a cost- the Meister binds the boys to him with a spell, they can never leave.And before the spell can be broken other secrets have to be uncovered.A wonderful YA novel,perhaps outdated for today‘s readers but I enjoyed it

Ladygodiva7 Oh my!! I love the art!!! 2w

978 1 782690 62 7; for the memorial read.

I liked 'Letter for the King' a few years ago. Nice but not finding it engaging (whether that is due to the translation or the original writing I don't know). I do like the illustrations, which are by the author

humouress Part 3 chapter 7: with its maybe-fey woods and cryptic remarks by several characters I feel we‘re on the cusp of something. First we were looking for a friend, who still hasn‘t turned up, and now we‘re helping another friend find his way home, but he doesn‘t seem sure that he wants to go there. 2w
humouress Finding the writing a bit rough (the original?/ the translation?); I keep getting snagged and it‘s slowing me down. ETA: I think the plotting is good but the vocabulary and maybe pacing are off. There are subtleties (the chess match) and tension - I had to put it down at the penultimate chapter. Better get back and see what happens… (edited) 2w
humouress “But history becomes legend, and legends are forgotten.” (Part 6, ch 4) WOT anyone? 1w
humouress “At my age it is too late to begin another life,” said Red Quibo. “I‘ll never get used to drinking water, (part 8 ch 8) - Quibo is usually to be found in pubs 1w

The love of family is beautiful to behold and this family includes Mishka, the rabbit. A tender, loving story.
