It was difficult to believe that it had been only a handful of hours since I had plucked Jackaby's posting from the board next door. That little slip of paper had turned out to be my ticket into a more remarkable world than I could have imagined.
"DON'T DO ANYTHING UNTIL WE SPEAK.
I slip it into a privacy case, tuck it into the balloon's interior compartment, adjust the tiny golden compass, and send the palace-official post-balloon off the balcony. I watch as until its lilac body disappears in the dark."
I used to write my fair share of letters to far flung friends but have fallen out of the habit as of late. I would like to think that sending a post-balloon would entice more letters.
*I looked around the room as thought someone else could confirm but there was no one. What does he have planned?
*Was that moan bouncing off the walls mine? Why yes, yes it was.
The internal thougt process that Megan March gives Ariel cracks me up!
Rollo! On no!
The separation is killing my and I have to get to work so it will be unanswered for quite some time!
I left the Outlander series for a little while, just needed a break. But am excited to start this one and get back into the series! Lets see if I can finish the book in one library check out (ha! It's very long!)
....lacking memories of my own, I've come to depend on other people's stories.
When I got here I thought I knew everything. After a year, I'm pretty sure I know nothing.
pickMore background on what happened in Helsinki and how Ferdinand started at Dyad and how MK became MK. Stepping back in time to see how the clones started to piece it all together was nice. Unlike the show they can't just Google whatever they wanted, dial up internet was a pain!

Such a balance between these lovely ladies. Keeping up with Susan and her turbulent ride through Tinder dating and Esther's money problems is entertainment enough. But Daisy and the things she ends up in always crack me up.

Am enjoying the world that is Rapid City. And things are about to get interesting with a murder.
"Is someone sneaking back....!!!"
Hehehhehee.....laugh out loud.
The artwork is stunning. Hopefully a great pairing with the series.
Some work on cross word puzzles. I've always liked a good Waldo search
Maddalena had been half listening while trying to recall how the Vivaldi's violin had sounded and remembering his wink.....Chiaretta said. "Her sister's in a convent already. There's enough for one dowry, and the parents chose Antonia to be the one who marries. They think she's the smartest and the healthiest that's why."
"What did her sister think?"
" I don't know. Antonio didn't say. Her parents decided for her."

Chapter 54 has taken such an emotional toll on me. I cannot get enough of this series no matter the turmoil it causes.
"She falls and starts to howl. Her father leans down and kisses her knee and wheedles a laugh out of her. And for no reason at all it makes me think of the Weaver who made me. Of how he will never pick me up when I fall.
I want to be human so badly it hurts."
"The dream is over."
What looks like a great series for me. Time travel and the old wild west?! Count me in!
Needed a travel or adventure book to take me away for a bit. A trip to Bhutan sounds perfect!
What is she up to and how does it all end?!
".....but there was something odd about this man, aside from being adorable!...."
"It's all right. You have to go all the way through your feelings before you can come out on the other side. But don't stay where you are Polly, move on."
When your digital loan expires but you are so close to finishing!.......touch nothing on the screen that triggers the return and KEEP LISTENING!
pickIt's about the journey. Some of us learn that later than others.
