Thank you for the book and the nice chocolates (not pictured because they are in the process of being consumed - rapidly!). I will definitely enjoy them! #JolabokaflodSwap #Litsy

This was one of my book spins, and it proved to be a chore to get through, so I was unfortunately unable to finish it. The style of writing is very choppy, so it was very difficult to engage with the story. When you add that the narrative drags along, it doesn‘t allow much opportunity get a foothold in the novel. On the upside, I feel like I deserve a medal for getting as far as I did. #TheAromaofBooks

TheAromaofBooks Sometimes it's just not worth following through on a book!!! Great progress!! 4y
DoctorMirabilis1267 @TheAromaofBooks I typically pride myself on finishing a book, no matter whether it is a torturous read. This is a rare case where the torture simply wasn't worth it. 4y
TheAromaofBooks I've gotten a lot more prone to bail on books over the last couple of years. I used to finish no matter what, but for some reason I just have less patience (or a longer list of books I want to read??) for books that aren't working for me! 4y

Thank you so much for these wonderful gifts @Chili - this was an amazing gift to return home to find. I very much look forward to reading this book with my favorite kind of chocolate (and so much of it! 😊). I am glad to hear that the book is now on your TBR list, too! I am looking forward to hearing what you think of the stories. #JolabokaflodSwap @MaleficentBookDragon

Chili @DoctorMirabilis1267 You are very welcome. I hope the chocolate didn‘t melt. Enjoy!! 5y
DoctorMirabilis1267 @Chili It didn‘t. It was cold here over Christmas (for Texas). The piece I had last night was excellent. Thank you so much for the bookmark - it was an extra special treat. 5y
Chili @DoctorMirabilis1267 You‘re welcome. I was a tad hungry when I went shopping and everything chocolate looked good. 🙄 5y

A mathematical story as a graphic novel?! What isn't right with this picture!!

DoctorMirabilis1267 Padua writes an extremely clever take on the relationship between Ada Lovelace and Charles Babbage and what might have been. For all of the mathematics, the text's approach is quite accessible. 8y
