  1. I read Nineteen minutes a while ago and liked it, but i haven't read much else by her.
  2. Hello, nice to meet you!
  3. Finished "Wuthering heights". Delicious, that's all I can say.
  4. Hello and welcome!
  5. This was what we had yesterday. I just HAD to share it with you. Fillet of pork, root vegetables an onions baked in the oven, and chanterelle and cream sauce. This is just about the best that I can cook. And the chanterelles I had picked myself.
  6. Yes, Arra by Maria Turtschaninoff was my kind of book. A fairytale about a very different girl who can talk to the earth, the fire, the wind and the water- only it takes a long time for the girl to understand that she can. She really doesn't fit in her family, but she finds her place at last. I'm now re-reading "Wuthering Heights". Delicious.
  7. :party:

     

    Have a lovely birthday!

  8. Hello! Welcome to the forum!
  9. Hello and welcome!
  10. Yes, Mac, I'm as well as can be expected I suppose. I read "Written on the wind" by Judith Pella. It was a book that remained indifferent to me. A WW2 story of three sisters, and the beginning of a series I'm quite sure I can live without reading. And then I threw myself into "Norwegian Wood" by Haruki Murakami, and finished it just now. It was more or less the emotional rollercoaster I expected. And I'm not so sure about the ending. I wasn't convinced it was those two that should have ended up together. He's an excellent writer just the same, and I'll go back to hunting down more of his books- which has turned out to be surprisingly difficult here in Finland. This was the only book of his that the library had. Now I'll start reading a fantasy written by a Swedish-speaking Finn (like I am if someone didn't know..). Arra by Maria Turtschaninoff. It's YA- but what am I if not young at heart.. I may be expecting too much of this book, but it does look like my kind of book.
  11. Hello Laura! Welcome to the forum!
  12. Hello and welcome!
  13. My TBR pile is also a physical pile of books I own but haven't read yet. I don't have too many books in my TBR- they may be 6 or 7, plus a few I more or less know I won't read. My WISHLIST again, is huge, and also ever changing/growing.
  14. Hello! Welcome! and all that..
  15. Inver, you have an eye for kilts!
  16. I like to buy new authors. I like it even better if they come recommended to me by someone, but it happens that I read someone I've never heard of too.
  17. Hello and welcome!
  18. I've read "The War of the Worlds" by H G Wells. Nobody is mentioned by name- not a single name mentioned in the whole book. I wonder why. Very good to be a classic. I only have to read three more classic books this year, and I'll have read enough for my Librarything challenge.
  19. Hello and welcome!
  20. New potatoes, grilled corn, grilled pork and salad.
  21. Hope you are well too!

    I won't start reading "Norwegian Wood" for a while, I have a feeling there's no happy ending? I'll read some "happily ever after"s before just in case.

  22. Mac, like I told you, all you need to do is learn Swedish.
  23. Hello! I do hope your weekend plans work out, it would be a nice thing to do!
