Thanks Mareli for the kind words. I try to stay up to date, but I fall by the wayside often, LoL. I scramble. I just finished Jeannette Walls’s new novel – it’s pretty good (a bit of a crazy bootlegger novel) but not as good as her memoir.
I’m still on Season 1 of Ted Lasso. I need to pick it up again. I hope your school is doing well. Enjoy the week!

I so love all the updates you always give us. I just don’t have time to stay up to date and it’s lovely to have you around! One stop check in! Oooh, I think I want to read just about all your new book releases… Especially the new Jeanette Walls.

Still haven’t watched Ted Lasso, think I need to catch up a bit!

Hope you are doing well otherwise Susan!

Yeah Lark: Lone Women does look good. I’m usually not a horror genre reader but this one could be an exception. Hope you have a great weekend. Happy reading.

Hi Stargazer, I didn’t realize in the UK clocks are set forward at a different time. Hmm that would make meetings hard to coordinate, argh. It takes me about a week to get used to the change.
I remember that you just read Great Expectations. Yeah I think it’s my favorite of Dickens’s novels. Sometimes adaptations can really kill a good book – so it’s probably fine to skip the new TV version. Hulu is not something we get here, alas. Enjoy your weekend.

Yeah that’s great. Your daughter has good taste. I need to check out more of Lana del Rey’s songs — I don’t know too many yet.

I recently read Great Expectations. I’ve had mixed experiences with Dickens, but I really loved this novel. Don’t know if I will watch the tv adaptation.

Lana del Rey does have a wonderful voice. I had heard of her but didn’t really know her music until my daughter played some of her songs for me.

Hi Greg, Since you’re a big music person – I wonder what you would think of the Elvis film. The actor did a pretty great job in the role but somehow he didn’t win the Oscar. Go figure.
We might try the Perry Mason too. And what do you think of Lana del Rey’s voice? Pretty great right? She’s got quite the voice. I like quite a few of her songs. Enjoy. Happy listening.

Yeah we might try the Perry Mason show sometime. But there’s so many shows right now, ha. I think the cast will keep you going on Defending Jacob – though it’s a bit grim subject matter. Is it believable? Reminds me a bit of the book & film: We Need to Talk About Kevin, which gives me a chill.
I hope the sunshine continues!
