Six Degrees of Separation – Send me a Postcard!

Greetings you guys! First of all, so sorry that we’ve missed Six Degrees last month. It slipped us by and July passed in the blink of an eye. But we are back and very excited to join our favorite monthly meme again! I’m sure by now you all know the rules of this monthly fun meme hosted by Books are my Favorite and Best: On the first Saturday of every month, a book is chosen as a starting point and linked to six other books to form a chain. Books can be linked in obvious ways, for example: same authors, same era or genre, or books with similar themes or settings. Or you might choose to link them in more personal ways: books you read in the same holiday, books given to you by a particular friend or books that remind you of a particular time in your life. The choices are endless here! Our starting point for this month is a book we once again didn’t read, but we did see the movie a couple of years ago. Can you believe the movie for Postcards from the Edge came out in 1990? That’s over 30 years ago! I think my Mommy is […]

Library Card August 2021

Greetings all you lovely humans! Can you believe it’s August already? Where does time fly to? And are you actually having fun? We all know the saying Time flies when you are having fun. Time’s just flying. Having fun doesn’t seem to be a requirement anymore. How was your month of July on the reading front? It appears as if our July Library Card was more of a guideline than an agenda to follow. Oh well, we did still read a couple of books. I’ve got no idea what the August winds will blow in with it, but it still won’t stop us to “visit” our virtual library and fill our library card. My Mommy is very slowly but surely busy sorting out our “library”. Her Kindle is mostly sorted out now and we still need to tackle the TBR list on Goodreads and then of course all the physical books that are currently in storage. So those will have to wait a couple of months. Thankfully we still have Book Club to get some physical books from. Here’s our Library Card picks for August: Book Club Update: We are still busy reading Midnight at the Bright Ideas […]

The Legend of Hobart by Heather Mullaly

The Legend of Hobart by Heather Mullaly Published by Favored Oak Press on July 26th 2021 Genres: Fantasy, Middle Grade Pages: 92 Format: ARC Source: Lola’s Blog Tours Buy on Amazon Goodreads Tired of being teased about his name and his stutter, twelve-year-old Hobart sets out to do a few heroic deeds and earn a place in Knight School.

Monday Bloopers #2 – Ysabel

Greetings Humans! Welcome back to our second edition of Monday Bloopers . We got the idea for Monday Bloopers from Melissa’s Mochas, Mysteries and Meows. You should really go and visit her, she has the most gorgeous feline blog ever! I think we can do a few more feline posts. I work my fluffy ass off helping my Mommy with all her bookish chat, I think I need a bit more post recognition too. *Where on earth do I get this cat?? Melissa hosts a fun monthly meme called Pet Photo Fail Blog Hop. I guess the idea is to post a photo that didn’t work as well as the shooter anticipated it would. *Camera shooter. Now seeing that there are only fur babies in this house, my Mommy’s photo inbox is cluttered with photos of all of us. Mainly of me of course. It’s quite the challenge to go through them all to find a photo blooper of me. No matter from what angle you observe me, it’s very close to perfection. But I guess if we have to use one, this one will have to do the trick this month: Even cats can fall from their high dog horse every […]
