So we are at the last Monday in April can you believe! We are well into Autumn now here in NZ. Got that feel to it, but very little rain really so far.
I have given totally up on Bloglovin’ now to follow blogs, I have remembered WordPress Reader and because I can use it for Blogger blogs as well I think it will work out. I am in process of putting in the blogs I follow but haven’t done them all. This Monday link up will help me sort some more.
I viewed all of Season 1 of All Creatures Great and Small set in Yorkshire and now I discover Season 2 is not here yet. So sad about that because I was right into it!
What I read last week:
What I am reading now:
And still a way to go on my audiobook The Wedding Veil.
Up next:
A backlist book from the library.

Many bloggers have been dissatisfied with Blogger. I use Feedly which has been fine. I thought I’ve read Eloisa James but I guess not after checking. Maybe it was some other author whose name is close to hers in spelling.

I’ve given up on Bloglovin too. I check it periodically when it’s up to see if there are any blogs I follow that I forgot to move over but I’ve essentially switched over to Feedly which I’m actually liking better. I loved the first book in the Ellery Adams series and am looking forward to reading more from it. I’m curious about the Eloisa James series. It’s been years since I’ve read her books but right now I’m listening to a Lisa Kleypas and am realizing how much I’ve missed historical romance.

Yes goodbye to Bloglovin’ forever! I find the WordPress reader good so will stick with it for now. I liked the Eloisa James novel but didn’t really love it. Lisa Kleypas historicals have engaged me a lot more,

I remember enjoying Sweet Salt Air and keep meaning to read more Delinsky. Will have to do that as I have a couple on my kindle picked up on sale over the years. I hope you get some rain. We seem to be getting the right amount these days which is good for plants and trees.

Every one who has commented on Sweet Salt Air has said how good it its. My library copy is a bit grotty – probably needs to be put out to pasture, but have made my self read past the stained pages! So far liking it.

Watched a movie last night made in New Zealand — What We Do in the Shadows! Thought of you, but only because you’re the only person I know who lives in NZ, not that you reminded me of vampires or reality TV. Have you seen the movie? It’s comedy horror, which for some reason I love. I laughed uproariously the whole way through, but my husband kind of just sat through it, bemused. There’s a TV show based on the same premise, but I’m sure I won’t get him to watch that with me!
Funny to think of autumn approaching as we’re just heading into spring here, but both are seasons for getting organized! I use WP Reader, email, and these link-ups to try and keep up with bloggers, but mostly I just don’t keep up and really need a better system, plus I need to retire!

No, haven’t watched What We Do in the Shadows because not a vampire person for movies (will read them in books!) Hmm comedy / horror. Will have to look it up to see who directed it.

I’m a big fan of Barbara Delinsky and remember reading and enjoying that book awhile ago. The cover for Summer Cottage is so inviting! I have been having trouble with Bloglovin all year and thought it was just me. I’ll leave it up on my blog and see what happens. I use “Follow.It” besides Blogger Followers. It allows people to subscribe by email. I don’t know if that helps you.
