Really enjoying the photos, I think Strasbourg has entered my 'want to visit' list. Looks lovely!

I've finished the book I was reading, and am going to switch to one a friend wrote. It's romance, so definitely not something I normally read, but always happy to support a friend when it comes to books.

I hope you have a wonderful trip, sorry to hear about your brother. I look forward to seeing all the photos :D

Does anyone else buy a favourite book of theirs in other languages when they visit other countries? I do that with Harry Potter books. :)

I think if I were reading that, it would make me hungry. Haha. I haven't been reading too much lately, still on the same book I mentioned in my last post.

Due to leave CBR-MEL on QF1525 at 1735, delayed now to 1830. Here's hoping no further delays

I finished my crime thriller and am picking back up a book I had to put aside for my book award panel reading thing I did last year. It's in a series called The Others by Anne Bishop. Urban fantasy set in alternate Earth - werewolves, vampires, etc. Bit of fun.

I am currently listening to an audio book - Chemical Hearts - but not through Audible. I use BorrowBox through my local library so it's free. I don't listen to audio books a lot, my mind wanders if I'm not actively listening, so I save them for car rides, bus trips, that kind of thing. But as...

I recently read Schapelle Corby's book. It was interesting - I vaguely recall all the news about it back in the 2000s. Currently reading a book I remember liking a lot as a kid called Pagan's Crusade, a medieval historical fiction, but struggling to get into it. Maybe because I'm not a kid...

I use Goodreads to track what I own. It is very helpful to consult my collection via the app when I am in a bookstore or at a book fair.

I attended the Lifeline Bookfair yesterday and picked up some more books (even though as you can see from my shelves, I don't really need more books) and it was glorious. I had finished my John Grisham book and am now reading a book by a different John - John Green, An Abundance of Katherines. I...

Lock us in, Eddy!

My favourite genre is fantasy - I like the Dresden Files! :D

Oh that would have been a nice sighting. He's a great actor. Instead who I saw the other day was Christopher Pyne on my flight to ADL.

Seems there's a theme for reading before bed - I too do this, and I usually put an audiobook on to fall asleep to. I need to be careful as to what book I select - sometimes I've picked something that's really interesting and I stay up listening far too long! On a recent trip to Adelaide I...

I'd been asked by a few AFFers for an update on house things, and I just haven't had the energy to keep that thread up to date. Sorry. But, you're also keen on news of the library which you knew I wanted. Well please feast your eyes on this beauty! The wheels for the ladder come in February, but...

We should be able to make it. Pencil me in and I'll try and confirm closer to the date :)

But how was the NLA? ;) Missed you by a day it seemed, I was there on Thursday doing some stuff on my day off from other work. I hope you had a good visit research wise.

Yep, my flight got affected. Was due to leave CBR 0750, now leaving 0930. Won't make that meeting in time after all...

We're not landing til 9pm at best... gonna be a long day!
