Not much to say here-anyone familiar with the author D.H. Lawrence? If so, then you’ll probably like this short story. And sorry for the lack of cats in these videos, they are hard to wrangle now that the holidays are here, I guess they’re busy Christmas shopping or something…
Below is my third vlog marking December 3, which includes a few glimpses of some of my feline companions, so you have that to look forward to. Unfortunately I’m currently battling a head cold, so there’s lots of snuffles that make appearances as well. On a happier note, the short story for today was quite…
Below is my second vlog marking December 2, and a dark turn in the short story advent calendar. The chocolate was delicious as always though, so that’s nice. Unfortunately Pearl and Smokey don’t make any appearances in this video, and my background is a sad gray wall because I hid in my basement while my…
As promised, below is my first vlog marking December 1,and the beginning of my advent calendar unveilings. These are short and sweet videos so they won’t take long to watch every day-because yes, I’m doing this every day until December 25! I forgot to mention this in my video, but the lovely Laura from Reading…
It’s getting to be that time of year folks! December starts tomorrow, and I’ve got my advent calendars (yes, that’s plural) locked and loaded. To mark this special time of year, I’m going to be posting a video each day on my youtube channel until Dec. 25. They’ll be short and sweet, recording my unveiling…
I rarely do meme’s (or it is memes?) on this blog because my reading is typically dictated by the book events or author interviews I’m scheduled to do. However, this seemed like a really easy one to join in on, and it appears other book bloggers are having so much fun doing these together, so…
So I’ve got my second video post up now (see below), it’s a review of The Trophy Child by Paula Daly. I’m really hoping that the quality of this sophomore video attempt is better than my first one, I used a different piece of software to record it, and I paid a whole 25 bucks…
I’m on a roll with cat books lately, but I promise this one will the last for awhile (until another one comes across my desk, at least). The Inner Life of Cats by Thomas McNamee has a lot of similarities to The Lion in the Living Room by Abigail Tucker, but this book focuses on…
So you’ve probably noticed that I’ve been reading a lot of cat books lately. I wasn’t just doing this because I REALLY LOVE CATS-I was doing this in anticipation of my cats book segment for the CBC this past week. I feel like book lovers and cat lovers are many times (but not always!) one…
Why, another book about cats? Yes please I say! I can’t get enough of them, and that is why I’ve just recently read The Lion in the Living Room by Abigail Tucker, a non-fiction guide to the evolution of domestic cats. Tucker charts the rise of cats in our life, from their early beginnings before…
A fellow book blogger had reviewed a ‘Bob the Cat’ book a few weeks ago (sorry I can’t find the post again!), and it prompted me to track down The World According to Bob, The Further Adventures of One Man and His Street-Wise Cat by James Bowen. This memoir is the sequel to Bowen’s first…
So you can always tell when I’ve been travelling, because the pictures of my books don’t feature Pearl or Smokey. I went on a lovely road trip to the UK a few weeks ago with my husband, and while away, I read a few books about travelling, just to help me get in the exploring…
