    I love Miss Pym's Day Out!
    It's a video that I return to again and again, sometimes listening to it as an audio book when I'm walking.
    Than you, for all your recommendations! I am so glad to know that there are others out there with similar taste in books. 😊

    Great haul! Wouldn't it be great if they started putting more pictures in adult books too? I wanted to tell you I'm about halfway through The Shell Seekers by Rosamunde Pilcher and really enjoying it. It's definitely a cozy read. I also read the Miss Read Thrush Green book and enjoyed that one too. Thanks for the recommendations. I'll have to check out the mocumentary too. 💓

    The description of the bookstore you go to sounds cozy and welcoming. I like the cover of "Anna and her Daughters" - it has a 60s kind of vibe (well, for me anyway). Great book haul Gina, thanks for sharing :)

    Thank you so much for your fun drawing last week! Congratulations to the winners!
    I have never read Barbara Pym. Thank you for the suggestion.
    This past week I bought a gorgeous book for my daughter at The Ringling in Sarasota. It’s called Divine Felines The Cat in Japanese Art (yes, we are cat people, too😊.) I also thrifted a vintage kids picture book by Alice Low called Summer.
    I’m finishing up The Shell Seekers.
    Happy reading!

    What fun little gifts😊. I'm sooooo upset Gina. As you know my apt. was packed up, remodeled, I lived in a hotel for 5 days, came back on a Sat., they unpacked me Mon. and Tues. It was a horror show. Way too hectic,no order, 3 people wanting my attention (they didn't speak english), I couldn't keep up w/ them unpacking and telling them where to put the things. They kept rushing me (bad neck and back, need Carpel Tunnel surgery). I told them to leave the bins and I would unpack. They said they needed the bins for the next floor down (interpreter). I told them to just dump everything and leave. They did.I had to "reput" things back in correct place. Still working g on it. HOWEVER, I am missing a LARGE tote bag of BOOKS, so upset. I took an entire day to go through EVERY book in here, 3 TIMES. I don't remember all titles I'm missing, but ALL were brand new. Classics and otherwise. 😑😑😑😑

    The little books are cute, but, your cats are cuter! I am reading 'The Kingmaker,' by Kennedy Ryan. I am not a fan of that book. I did buy some books this past weekend, when I went to an independent bookstore. That video will be airing on my channel tomorrow.
