Does anyone have a recommendation for a good book tracker app for Mac –– I don't use my iPhone or iPad much so I want something easy to use on Mac #booksky #books #reading

I bought China and New York at the same time I bought London so I have some nice epic books to get through this winter

Good morning - I'm about 800 pages (of about 1300) through London by Edward Rutherfurd and can't put it down

What ya reading today?
I'm about halfway through London (by Edward Rutherfurd) and loving it. I recently re-read his book Sarum, which I'd first read 20+ years ago, and not sure why I never read any of his other books until now #books #booknerd

I’m really excited to share that I’ve just opened Declutter Club – a space where we tackle decluttering together with monthly challenges and some great community support. It’s all about making decluttering simple and doable, without the stress!

When I was about 5 my older sister (16) read The Hobbit to me. I was immediately obsessed with it. It's the first novel I ever read for myself and I've re-read it a zillion times. Of course I then got into The Lord of the Rings, The Silmarillion etc but Bilbo Baggins will always have my heart.

As you can see I'm going down an Edward Rutherford rabbit hole right now. I first read Sarum maybe 20 years ago (or close) and it's stuck with me that long. I hadn't read any of his other books so just re-read Sarum (1079 pages!) and on to London now (only 773 pages haha)

Meet My Giants 🐢
I’m the proud owner of 2 giant (very scruffy, usually dirty from outside) dogs who think they’re lap-sized. They don’t just take up space in my house; they take up space in my heart (and my sofa). Anyone else share their home with a couple of four-legged giants? πŸ˜… #DogLife #GiantDog
