The June prompt for #BookedinTime is Australian colonies 1800s. I have chosen Kate Grenville's exploration of what it means to her to be descended from colonisers.

@Cuilin @dabbe

Cuilin I think this is the one I‘m going to read also. Though I‘m still trying to finish my book from the Spanish Civil War prompt.🤦‍♀️ 1d
AllDebooks @Cuilin it's very good so far. It would be a great read for #NaturaLitsy too. Her descriptions of landscape are beautiful. I've yet to finish 1d
Cuilin @AllDebooks Now I‘m really interested. 1d

#MidsummerSolace #TimeforTea

It's time for a weekly catch-up. I hope you are all well and have had a good 2025 so far.

🍵 How are you?
🍵 Any summer plans?
🍵 Do you have good recommendations for books/movies/tv/games/apps?

@TheBookHippie @Chrissyreadit

Librarybelle No summer plans for me, other than to hopefully get back to reading more regularly! 😂 I‘d recommend Katherine Center‘s latest for a good summer read: 3d
ElizaMarie Doing great y'all. No summer plans here either (@LibraryBelle) but --- hoping to do more day trips to Boston and a ton of outside reading. Oh and trying to aclamate our baby pup into our lives :) 2d
AllDebooks @Librarybelle love this. No plans = spontaneity! Thanks for the recommendation. 🌞 2d

AllDebooks @ElizaMarie I love day trips and reading outdoors in the sun. How is your little pup settling in? 😍 2d
ElizaMarie @AllDebooks he is doing remarkably well. He learned how to use the stairs and now get up on the end without any issues. He is still trying hard to be Lobster‘s friend (kitty) who is not fully there yet. But he keeps his brother and sister f(Conor and Zoey) on their toes - which is good because they are older and can use the exercise. 2d
AllDebooks @ElizaMarie so sweet ❤️🐾❤️ 2d

Librarybelle Good morning! My area was under a tornado watch late last night, and I can see we had a storm, but thankfully no tornadoes. The cats were extra needy this morning, so I think the yucky weather had them riled up. It‘s my birthday weekend, so my mom is taking me to my favorite bookstore today and tomorrow (my birthday), my parents are taking me out to lunch. Zeke had a rough day yesterday but is much better today—the best type of birthday gift! 6d

TheBookHippie I‘ve just arrived home after four fun days away being spoiled. Winnie is very upset with me because she found out the place we stayed accepts dogs…👀🤣😂 it‘s dark and dreary here, matching my mood. It‘s always hard to come back here. Sigh. I‘ll get out to my raised gardens and I‘ll be better. 🌱🪴 6d
Librarybelle Thinking of you, @Cuilin 6d
Librarybelle @TheBookHippie Glad you enjoyed your time! 6d

dabbe @Bookwormjillk Glad the storm has passed. 🖤🐾🖤 to those kitties! 5d
dabbe It's going to hit 100+ here today, so we're lying low and staying in the house. This is the time of year where if we don't get out before 7 AM, we ain't gettin' out at all. The pups are mad at us because we didn't get out early enough to take them for a walk, so all that energy is going to be fun to control! 😬 Hope everyone has a lovely day and weekend. 🩵💙🩵 5d
DebinHawaii @Librarybelle Glad you were safe from storms & happy Zeke is better today. Happy Birthday! 🎉 📚🎂 5d
DebinHawaii It‘s a humid one here today but not as hot as for @dabbe as it‘s 81 degrees F. I‘m in the air con at the coffeeshop but sadly I am here to do work. (Shh… I‘m sneaking some reading in too). 😉 5d

Poppy Okotcha's memoir of changing seasons in her garden and her relationship with nature sounds fascinating. I am aware that this title is not available in the US until the end of June. I'm happy to continue the #buddyread into July and August, if you want to join in.

I‘m like you @TheBookHippie - it‘s so busy my body is demanding rest. Which is fine since there‘s books, pizza, and cake nearby. We‘ll celebrate on Monday with a trip to Baltimore for a baseball game. Next week is graduating for the seniors + 8th grade promotion for my daughter. This is all fun stuff but also counting down to June. 2w

This was a good thriller, if predictable. The storyline is told by travelling back in time, which makes for an interesting viewpoint but is a stretch.

Today is chores in the morning followed by a fashion webinar hosted by Jane Austen‘s House (love that I can see evening programs in the UK in the afternoon here). I need to read the next Nancy Drew book this weekend, but I started this one to get back to the library on Monday, and it‘s such an important read…everyone should read this #HonestHistory #RealHistory 4w

TheBookHippie Getting all my above ground gardening planters (25) ready to plant - it still freezes here overnight… I plant after May 20 generally. But first late brunch, coffee… my electric blanket died and it‘s hard for my joints to not have it before I sleep and before I get up. (RA) new one arriving today! Last two nights without it have been tough. 😵‍💫🫣😝 happy Saturday all! 4w

Librarybelle Good morning! I am excited to attend a mystery book event today. The rest of the weekend will be catching up on chores I missed doing this week because of taking Zeke to appointments. It‘s sunny right now, and hearing the birds chirping puts a smile on my face. Hope everyone has a good weekend! 1mo
ElizaMarie Good Morning - I am enjoying my morning coffee. Catching up on my shows (Law & Order). We got a puppy yesterday (I am gonna post a picture on a book review). We are gonna spend the day with him so we can come up with a name. 1mo
ElizaMarie @Librarybelle - A Mystery book even sounds super fun!!! I love that you have sunshine and birds to keep you company this morning! I woke up with the sun (which I love waking up that way rather than the alarm). 1mo

TheBookHippie We are preparing for exams here: my son has all his international baccalaureate exams this week and he is really anxious- so I‘m helping him BREATHE and go over things casually… two years of classes comes down to one paper in each subject- Hisory, English… etc -that you write in 5 parts on one subject in differing ways from ONE QUESTION. Then depending how you do it can count for certain amounts of college credits. It‘s worldwide so I get⬇️ 1mo

thecheckoutstack After two weeks of pneumonia I‘m finally starting to feel like myself, but I woke up with a bit of a sore throat so feeling a little paranoid. The weather is beautiful here today, hoping to build a fence around my new raised garden beds. 1mo
Librarybelle @Cuilin He‘s holding steady. He did not really eat this morning and had some potty issues last night. But, he was active and alert this morning. Thanks for asking! 1mo
quietlycuriouskate Usual Saturday domestic and admin. chores here. I prevailed upon my daughter to buzz my hair; now I'm all eyes and cheekbones and look like a cross between Cillian Murphy and a Buddhist nun again. 😂 1mo

dabbe @quietlycuriouskate Your cut sounds adorable! I want to see it! 💚💜💚 1mo
dabbe As I type this, the girls are whining to go on their walk before it gets too hot. They don't understand that we need our cup of joe before we go. 🤣 Wishing everyone a lovely Saturday. 💜💚💜 1mo
ElizaMarie @Cuilin I am so glad to hear your discomfort is subsiding. I am trying to get into the “want“ to spring clean. I start to do well, but my husband is not interested, so it's been a battle to get stuff done -- we did do his dressers today (I did mine a weekish ago). So we got 1 bag of clothing to donate!!! --- What are you organizing today? 1mo
ElizaMarie @TheBookHippie Ooo sounds intense! SENDING him all the good vibes I have!!! 1mo
ElizaMarie @thecheckoutstack Ooo 2 weeks of pneumonia! I am glad to hear you are out of that! Take it slow and steady! Yay for SUNSHINE! 1mo
ElizaMarie @dabbe Enjoy your walk with the girls! Maybe a coffee to go!? 1mo
Cuilin @ElizaMarie Everything!!! Both our daughters are in their 20s and they have spent the last 5 to 7 years boomeranging and dropping things off in our basement. It is an utter mess. 1mo

ElizaMarie @Cuilin Hope you can get lost in some audio books during your #AudioOrganizing 1mo

julieclair Didn‘t get to this one this month, but want to. Too many books… too little time… 1mo
TheBookHippie I learned a lot from this read and I had the photography book of this- HUGE BOOK - so you could read and almost jump in the picture. I did read it in bits and I think that‘s the best way. Librarian said it was dry but I didn‘t feel that way. I found it informative. 1mo
TheBookHippie lol look at the questions - I always found desert BORING and now I can see beauty- like I said having the massive pictures made you live in the photo and is brilliant way of understanding the author. Does the author like people? Maybe not. I don‘t think it matters. 🙃 could be me reading in it‘s been a bit much here in life. 1mo
AllDebooks @julieclair I hear you x 1mo
AllDebooks @TheBookHippie I bet the photos made a huge difference. I agree with your librarian. I read it in one sitting and got a little bored. Would be a better read by dipping in and out. I loved the botanical sections. 1mo
TheBookHippie @AllDebooks Oh for sure the dipping in and out. Some of the photographs are just amazing my grandson and I read through it over 4 weeks I don‘t think it‘s meant to be a sit and read book. Then I agree it‘s a bit no thx 1mo

Librarybelle Good morning! I‘m spending the day with a friend, which will be fun. Zeke has been off his steroid treatment in preparation for his appointment next week, and he started to show signs of discomfort on Thursday night. The rest of my weekend will be me monitoring him and giving him what medications I can to alleviate his symptoms enough to get him to eat again. Poor guy. Other than a couple incidences the past couple of weeks, he was doing well. 1mo

julieclair I‘ll be spending the day catching up on various To Do List items, planning our upcoming trip to Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, and hopefully doing some reading. 1mo

Librarybelle Thanks, @AllDebooks @julieclair ! We should hopefully find out next week the primary cause for his issues, so then I can get the best treatment for Zeke. This is such a long process. Lots of trial and error. 1mo
