Hello everyone! Last week we had a crazy busy week but I *think* that this week should be a more relaxed one. Here’s to hoping! I am falling behind on my extracurricular activities, like blogging and reading and sewing! Lol.
Read Last Week:


I read Emily of New Moon for Middle Grade March and I absolutely loved her. Dare I say it? But I think I liked Emily more than Anne. Review coming this week!!
I also read The Sad Ghost Club 2. These books are just so well done. The blurb on the back cover says “This is a story about what happens after you find your kindred spirits. Because people are great but also…complicated.” The review on this one will be up this week as well.
Reading This Week:


I am so excited to start these this week! I am reading Greenwild as part of Middle Grade March, and I anticipate finishing it pretty quickly. Then I will start The Spellshop, a book that has been on my TBR for a while now!
Posted Last Week:


Coffee Catch Up: The Birthday Boy
Springtime in Paris: A Film Event
Watching:
We have been watching a lot of the same. Murdoch, Ghosts, The Great Pottery Throw Down, and Dickinson. I really want a new season of Beyond Paradise or Brokenwood. When will those happen?
I do however have a some fun movies to look forward to! Lisa at Boondock Ramblings and I are hosting another film watching event for springtime. It is six weeks, six movies, and very easy going! If you want to watch one or all or a few, we would love to have you join in. Just watch along and comment on our posts or post your own thoughts and link up!
If you are interested, this is the schedule of movies!

And that is it from around here today! Whatever you do today, I hope you do something that makes you smile!
I get falling behind on the hobbies. I’m significantly behind. I need to see if any of the movies are on my streaming services. We don’t have many so I’m not sure if I’ll be able to watch. Good luck on that relaxing week!

We have not started the new Death in Paradise season yet – it always takes me a minute after we lose a DI.

I am hoping my copy of Emily of New Moon comes this week. I’m looking forward to it.
I need to finish the last Brokenwood series and get back to Murdoch. That would be good to do for this week.

I just commented on your blog about Emily so I won’t here. Lol.
Murdoch has so many episodes and it just sort of silly so I love it for that. Lol.

I really liked Emily. I am not usually a sequels reader but I think I am going to actually read the next in the series!

I am hopeful this week goes fast as I have something going on every day and two on some. I’m sitting at a swim meet right now, but my grandson doesn’t swim for another hour. It’s not as much fun when you’re just a spectator instead of actually involved in the meet. I finished a book, but I can’t think of the name. It would probably get a ghost pepper for spiciness according to your rating scale, but it was good. I have no idea what I’m reading next…maybe a reread of something. I could also do my readings for my docent training, but what’s the fun in that!
Hope you have a fabulous week!

There is an L.M. Montgomery character for everyone. Lolol. Anne is definitely nicer, in my opinion. Lol.

Ghosts is so funny! I’m enjoying it very much! I love LM Montgomery but I haven’t read Emily of the New Moon. I keep meaning to, but the TBR pile grows ever bigger and there are so many books I can’t keep up with!
