I’m working my way through my college’s ebook platform. This title popped up as I was reading #GirlBoss.

Roald Dahl is another minefield. I’ve had to take a pencil to Revolting Rhymes.

1914-1918 by David Stevenson, She comes first by Ian Kerner and Chernobyl History of a tragedy by Serhii Plokhy. Makes a change from fishing books but I have all winter for that!

I never knew, when mine were small, if it was better to edit or read and explain. Some things can just be fun and kids work it all out in the end.
I always rather liked Princess Smartypants.

We’re fine with most of it, but there are a few bits that stand out. The Prince cried, “Who’s this dirty slut?” in Cinderalla, and Who is this silly foreign freak? from The Cow in Dirty Beasts are a couple that may get skipped over.

Modern Drummer Magazine anthology of all it’s Neil Peart interviews from 1980 to his final one. I don’t have many heroes, but he was top of my list.

Vincent’s Starry Night and Other Stories
A (children’s) history of art.
Really interesting introduction to over 50 artists through their imagined stories. In addition to the accompanying ‘works of art’ the book is beautifully illustrated by Kate Evans.
Supposedly aimed at children but fascinating for ‘grown ups’ too

Currently flying through “The Five: The Untold Lives of the Women Killed by Jack the Ripper” by
Hallie Rubenhold. Sooooo good - would thoroughly recommend!

Oh, I have a stack of worthy books to read for my book group.
We meet via Zoom at the moment and half the time no one has had the energy or wherewithal to finish that month’s book, but the organiser likes it if we all tune in regardless for the craic and social contact.
Probably a good plan - always goes down well.
But if anyone can give me a synopsis of ‘Beekeeper of Aleppo’ I could save face…

Still have 4 books on the go. One in the car before heading to the salt mines, one at lunch, one beside the bed and Chernobyl beside my seat on the sofa. Brilliant book, can’t put it down.

Did you watch the tv series? Very frightening for me as i lived though it, i can remember them advising us not to buy Welsh lamb, as fall out had settled on Welsh mountains!
