Not a day goes by that I don‘t miss my dad… he has been gone three years and I would give anything for him to interrupt me reading again!
Made a quick overnight to Maine this week and found another good used bookstore. Happy with my haul and particularly pleased to have found the last book in Cora Sandel's Alberta trilogy.
This is the 3rd Godden novel I've read, & while not, my favorite, I do enjoy her intricate emotional stories that spin around an event, in this case the death of a pet, that expose larger cracks. Published in 1942, it has some issues. Set in India (where she grew up there), it aims to be sensitive, but has some questionable arguments about European ingenuity. Nevertheless her plotting and insight into human behaviour make for a good read.
Airport reading. First book for the #192025 challenge. @Librarybelle
It's a ferries, planes & automobiles kind of travel day. Hoping everything works out. 🤞
Here‘s my “vintage book find of the day” that I picked up while running some errands. I like Rumer Godden; has anyone read it?
1. I like them. But I don't always end up liking the book.
2. I have this book “pillow“ but it's more of a stand for on the couch. it works with my books, and my ipad. and it has pockets. If I get a chance tonight. I'll take a picture.
3. Opps I should have read this before I tagged the book I did. So lets go with the Garth Nix Keys to the Kingdom Series (if I was paying attention I would have tagged Sir Thurday.)
Thank @moonwithc94

Everyone should read RG (Five For Sorrow, Ten for Joy, say, or The River)--reading RG fills in women's history let alone exposes one to a master stylist. All so 1950 tho: Michener's South Pacific meets, well, an RG novel. Prepare for borderline portrayals of imaginary islanders & maybe don't read in tandem w/ Lost Horizon or subpar Conrad for all will meld. Be warned too that this is a full-on Tempest ripoff, nothing not promised on p. 1 ;)
