Always happy to see a comment from you Kathleen Ann
Good to see you Curtis - these long gaps make me worry you are leaving us again! Looks like you are reading some fascinating - and hefty- books. As a kid of the seventies I loved Paddington and when I saw clips of the movies was a bit freaked out, Paddington isn’t supposed to look that real!

Which is exactly what has put me off watching them! Thanks Jo.
Always great to see you back, Curtis! I am currently very busy, but don't worry, I haven't forgotten about our buddy read. Maybe a bit later in the year if that works for you still?

How's War and Peace? I haven't forgotten either! Just say the word when you're ready. I was a bit naughty and did read Shyness and Dignity by Solstad but that wasn't the book we'd agreed on so I figured I could get away with it ;)

@@CurtisBooksandFilms Haha, there's nothing wrong with being a bit naughty. And I'm sure we would always find something to read together, even if you had read the one we agreed on. War and Peace was fab!
There should be a Booktube Medal for Perseverance for that moment when the tech has just failed to record your full-length video and..... you turn round and perform it all over again. You get the gold version, with ribbon. Glad you re-recorded. Fair warning: I just tagged you for the Tell me the Truth Tag - but it's brief and won't take you 10 mins to record.
