    I just wanted to say Lauren, I'm really happy you bought that skirt. When you were posting about it on Instagram I was thinking someone better buy that for her if she won't let herself get it. No buy pledges at great, but they shouldn't cause you to miss out on something that will make you genuinely happy.

    Hi Lauren I’d recommend persevering with Young Queens - it’s very good and I’m amazed it didn’t get on the shortlist

    58:37 Your Dad watching telly while speaking to you on the phone is exactly my Dad used to do when I called him. I did try to suggest he turned the TV off, while one of his beloved daughters was on the phone, but he said "but it's like having you in the room with us". Oh great, thanks Dad, being ignored so you can watch the telly is exactly what you would be doing if I was in room...

    Hi Lauren. Happy Easter 🐣 and Happy spring. Still chilly on my side of the Atlantic. But the BIG thing to say is today we had an earthquake! 4.7 was the size. Very unusual here in the northeastern corner of the US. I thought a truck had crashed into my office building. Scary 😱 to say the least. Just finished Before the Coffee Gets Cold. It was somewhat disappointing as was expecting to love it. 2.5 stars ⭐️ from me. Just added Meg Mason’s Sorrow and Bliss audio from my library as well as The Secret Book of Flora Lee by Patti Callahan Henry also on audio from my library. The library system in Connecticut allows you to borrow books and audio via Libbyapp via downloads, so only need to run to library if borrowed a hard copy that needs picking up and returning. I picked up hardcover copy of Enter Ghost and never had chance to read it. Hopefully, I’ll pick it up again soon. Have a great weekend ❤

    Great Easter reading vlog. It seemed like the ideal weekend: socialising with loved family and friends, whilst also reading loads! That new skirt seems like a very good amd prudent purchase to me ... 😉

    As an American, I'm always jealous of other countries four day holiday weekends. That's not a thing here.

    We have a red British short hair. We were told they weren't lap cats as their fur is so thick they get too hot. Ours will sit on our lap for about 30 secs max.

    Love the long weekend vlogs! Congrats on hitting your goal. I'm also trying to read some of the Womens Prize books, but am not getting too far. I dnf'd the Anne Enright, just did not get on with it at all.
