#Japan I recently enjoyed this video on Youtube by Japan with Nao. Didn't know about these tea rooms, and the details were nice to learn. Some things I knew, and some I didn't. youtu.be/AnyJipX-mhU?...

Oh, now that's a great idea!

πŸ“šπŸ’™πŸ“šπŸŒΆοΈπŸ“šβ³This week's reading includes The Thorns Remain, by JJA Harwood. Set in 1919 in Scotland, I'm not far in yet. It's getting easier, but this book is outside my normal range. Moira Jean swings between being flippant and snarky, to mourning her fiance, so sharply I get whiplash.

πŸ“šπŸ’™πŸ“šπŸŽ§Attica, by Garry Kilworth. It's an adventure story of three children who go into an attic to search for a long-lost watch, only to find they've left the world they've always known. Their cat, Nelson, follows them there. It's a journey. I'm halfway through and excited to find out what happens!

I saw the trailer. He's great in it! The wait is long!

πŸ“šπŸ’™πŸ“šπŸͺFinished The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook. We learn much more, and about the thoughts of the NPCs. So many things happen in this story. I feel the looming future situations with certain characters. To even say who would be to spoil! Really excited to continue reading.

You are cool. And Kamen Rider Knight is a thing of beauty and a joy forever!

I understand completely!

Thank you! I will have a look from my computer. My handheld’s screen is too small.

πŸ“šπŸ’™πŸ“šπŸ©Έ The Birds & Other Stories, Daphne du Maurier. Foreword by David Thomson. The foreword is mostly about Daphne du Maurier and Alfred Hitchcock, so gives excellent biographical details about each of them. I love Hitchcock's movie, and find it stayed quite true to the story values of the book.

Sweet song!

Oh hahaha I know this art!

#booksky πŸ’™πŸ“š πŸ“šπŸ’™ I took a look at my Libby and checked some tags. Things I want that will take work to get to. John Laurens and the American Revolution, by Gregory D.

#booksky πŸ’™πŸ“š πŸ“šπŸ’™ πŸ“šπŸͺ The series is consistently good. I've only just started this one, The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook. Carl, Princess Donut, Mongo, and now Katia face new challenges in an underground subway system!

I'd like to read that article. Was it you who'd posted a Japanese man's comment on this very thing?

Oh, that's nice! I don't think I can access it where I am.
