I really, really, really need to catch up a little with reading purchased books. But will I? Thanks for shouting out Endless Drama; I think it's going to be fun! Jane Austen, yes! Nice recovery on Happenstance - now you can relinquish the ugly copy. Your plans sound terrific!
Wow, thank you for the incredible shout-out-I’m genuinely floored! You pretty much nailed it: I do have a PhD (children’s literature-adjacent, technically), I do knit (though definitely not fast enough to meet my holiday needs), and my channel is still in its baby stages. Support like this means a lot! I’m so glad the algorithm worked its magic to bring us together, and I really appreciate you spreading the word. Tagging me? Absolutely-I’ll add it to my ever-growing list of chaotic filming ideas. This totally made my day-thank you again!
My new year resolution this year was to only read books already on my shelf, I’m ashamed to tell you how that went, I bought more new books than ever, just warning you🤣 Safe travels and a happy holiday!
I am feeling sad for those rejected books cast off your shelf. What did they do wrong to be treated so cruelly? Hope you have a good trip. Making 2025 a year of Austen should be wonderful. I hope to join Endless Drama too.
Hi. I can't remember which Shields novel it was! :) Some favorites are The Stone Diaries, Unless, and Larry's Party. I imagine you've already read those so I'm stumped. I was kind of disappointed by Swann on a reread so that wasn't it and I've never read Happenstance, though (surprise!) I do have a kindle version. I have some ambitious plans for 2025, as well. So we'll have to hang in there and keep reading. Maybe a buddy read at some point? Happy travels to you.
For the last couple of years I've been reading the winners of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. I'm not reading them exclusively, it's just a personal challenge, so I'm reading other novels in-between. I like the Pulitzer's better than others like the Bookers, the Women's Prize, etc.
Do any of us REALLY have it all together?😁I’m tempted to delete all the holds at my library just to start the year with a clean slate. Madness or sensible plan? 🤪We’re here for you whether you go off the rails or not. Happy holidays and bon voyage.
Hope your holiday trip back to the U.S. is wonderful!
(Persuasion to s my favorite Austen)
I really enjoy your videos so much. They always leave me grinning from ear to ear. Happy holidays to you and your family, Priscilla!
