SQUEEEEE!


*cough*
Ehm. And I was planning on a Sharpe September, but looks like I might start a new job on the 1. so dunno if there will be any reading/viewing time for me.
Was planning on reading these:


... will let you know if I ever get around to that...

Thank you so much for sharing these two episodes. I missed those on TV.

In regards of reading, I find that I have been addicted to audio books or at least audio companions to kindle books lately. It makes reading easier and faster I find. And even if you don't have time to read you can always listen.

Oh that's really interesting! I always feel that I'm much faster reading than listening and lose patience with audiobooks. But a friend of mine keeps recommending audio as well... will have to look into that again!
*mutters* But I still think if I don't have time to read I don't have time to listen either...

Well, I thought so too at first and not every audio-reader, I mean the person who reads it out loud for you, works for me I find.

But I can do it whilst doing other things, for instance walking or you can do it in the car whilst driving.
I even find that I can do it during tedious work at work.
Sometimes it even helps me to concentrate more.
Drowning out the nuisance gossip of the colleagues for instance.
Why not give it a try and see if it works for you.
Just try it with one book at first.

I did that with the Outlander series and that got me hooked. Davina Porter, the reader of that series, is particularly good.
