Bookwitch

Didn’t read all the books I’d hoped for. For a pessimist I’m rather optimistic when it comes to planning reading. I’d hoped for some crime, but that’s sitting next in line.

Son gave the Resident IT Consultant a copy of The Hogfather and proceeded to read it himself, first. R IT C has only just laid hands on his own book to read. On the other hand, he in turn attempted to claim ownership of the old atlas he found lying around, which had been Son’s present.

I don’t know why we steal so much here.

The Visiting Grandmother was found dipping into Trigonometric Delights, and I don’t even want to think about that. She also read last year’s Costa winner, Linda Newbery’s Set in Stone.

Daughter has done what she does best; re-read old favourites.
