The Sun has finally come
out. I’ve talked with Timothy, and
George is well into episode 4 of “The last Kingdom.” Things are fractionally too quiet for me, but
who am I to complain. Timothy is doing
the same thing I am doing, reading. A friend
of his lost his house, and Tim got all
his books. He had a lot of popular
fiction.
I’m just grateful that
last time I cleared out my book stash; I kept the best of the best. Working through the Dick Francis racing
mysteries has been an adventure, and I’ve been loving it. Now that I have finished the four on Sid
Halley, I’m free to read anything.
Having the neighborhood library still closed is such a sad thing.
I have to confess that I purchased a new hardbound book online; the newest Amish mystery. Boy that was expensive, and that’s why I never buy new. Now I am chomping at the bit to get it in my hands. It’s a drive by pickup at my favorite bookstore. I like that idea a lot. And the store has moved just down the hill. What more could one ask.

That is a fabulous photo! Our library here is open too but it is a shadow of its former self. No browsing. You can order on-line and drive by to pick it up at a specified time.

ReplyDeleteYou could not get much more into that picture!
ReplyDeleteI'm reading A Town like Alice. I refuse to sit up all night!
LOL
DeleteDick Francis is a name from the past. It was his books that really got me into the British Mystery genre way back when. The first books that I read were from the library in the school where I taught. This would be back in the 80s sometime.
ReplyDeleteYou brought back memories with the mention of Dick Frances. He was a favorite. Too bad you don't have Kindle. I get my library e-books transferred to my Kindle in minutes and never leave the house. Only costs me $10 a year. Best sellers I have to wait for but they have a huge selection.
