pickI picked up the book on Monday, & finished it on Wednesday! 😂
This is my second Percival Everett (after Dr. No), & I'm searching out the backlist (luckily, I have a few on Kindle already). Considering I don't like Huckleberry Finn, I'm surprised at how much I enjoyed this retelling! It's not quite 5 stars, as there were a couple of bits that were hard to read.

pickNot as good as the first, but still important issues discussed (in comments). I didn't get the culprit this time.

Thank you, @AlldeBooks, for everything in my #litsolacemidsummerswap #naturalitsymidsummerswap package. I love everything, and the sweet pea seeds made me smile, as everyone in the card swap knows why I love them so much! I'm looking forward to reading the books too!

Birthday haul so far... I have more vouchers to spend!
1. Brain scan results have come back - no change, and it's stable.
2. Following on from #1, I don't have to have another scan for another 2 years.
3. Jaffa has sat on my lap several times (he's only just becoming a lap cat!)
4. I've had an email from the diabetes team saying that I can finally get a sensor fitted to track my blood sugars better.
5. I've finally managed to get some #litsylove out!

First, they saw a lobster pushing Mesolithic worked-stone tools out of its burrow - 'the first known Mesolithic archaeological excavation carried out by a member of the lobster community', as the Isle of Wight's county archaeologist David Tomalin put it wryly in the report he wrote up later.

"In eighteenth-century North America, Benjamin Franklin - who owned a firm that printed money for the colonies - hit on the idea of misspelling Pennsylvania on official currency on the grounds that forgers would spell it correctly and the notes could easily be spotted as counterfeit, but that only went so far."

The best book for February is Some People Need Killing by Patricia Evangelista, but Matrix is using a bonus space, as it was very close between them.
