I’ll be settling down with a little non fiction this evening!
Noise Pollution for Dummies ![]()
I’m sure my son has one of those “dummies” music books, I don’t remember off hand which one.
Enjoy Chili. ![]()

I’ll make sure you’re on the guest list for my sell out gig in Italy!

Terry Pratchett Equal Rites for the probably 10th time, new copy though, old one fell apart. LOL
Reading Agnes Grey by Anne Bronte. A very different style from the other Bronte sisters
My new copy of Wuthering Heights, front book cover is fancy velvet and rough,
with very small print, and over 300 pages…will be my reading today and tomorrow.
I never read it before so…now is the time.
Ooh that’s exciting. Will be interested in your impressions
After reading the review of the story, I was looking forward to much doom and gloom. But after a few chapters, I closed the book. Nothing uplifting about the entire tale. Book will go to donations at my library.
I thought the two main characters very irritating.
Jane Eyre by her sister is much better.
If Woolf’s “the waves” are a metaphoric literary representation of the sea, wuthering heights is like an endless stormy night. Probably best enjoyed as a teenager sailing through the storms of adolescence.
All Charlotte’s books are fabulous
I can understand your way of thinking…Not enough of life’s experiences to hang on every word and deed yet.
Gone back to my childhood & pony books. Reading No Mistaking Corker by Monica Edwards at present. Finished reading Wish For A Pony & Fire In The Punchbowl, Got The Summer Of The Great Secret to read too, but haven’t bought any more from Amazon, sellers want too much for them. I love Monica Edwards books & she wrote a lot too.
Swallows and Amazons? I loved those books.
This one
Interesting, a little bit of social history. I picked it up from a kind of ’ honesty’ bookcase in the waiting room at Arundel station a few weeks back, popped a bit of coinage into the well anchored money box.
Hence the handy train ticket bookmark!
That’s a lovely book cover. This is one of my favourite novels, I have a paperback copy at home which I’ve read twice. I bought it over here and it’s luckily an original English version.
I grew to really love this story while studying it at secondary school, it was amongst the list of books on our A level syllabus - English Literature.
Some good film versions available too.
Happy reading. ![]()
