I'm reading tomorrow so I'll give you subtle nudges toward Alice throughout the day. ;) I hope you have a great day of rest, reading, and proctoring! I wanted to participate, but I had so much to do on my day off-so I just visit those who d…
I am really looking forward to readathon too! Right now I'm reading Dickens' Our Mutual Friend and I just passed halfway -- 412 pages in! Yikes! Good thing I'm enjoying it.I'm glad your house is coming along and feeling homey. :) We just st…
Hope things settle for you in April. We are just entering autumn down here so looking forward to some lovely days in Tasmania. My brother mentioned snow in Michigan. He lives in Kalkaska. Michigan weather!! Hope you see spring and easier da…

Okay, first, YOU MUST WATCH ANNE WITH AN E ON NETFLIX. It's Anne of Green Gables, but changed a bit -- darker. It seems people either love it or hate it. I LOVED it. They're filming Season Two now. Then you MUST WATCH The Crown on Netflix.

Gone. With. The. Wind. That is all. I knew you would like that! I actually think I might listen to it. I'm trying out some audiobooks while I clean, etc and I think my reread books would be perfect for that! :) I've listened to the audio bo…
