Goodreads

Since joining Goodreads I have reread some of my favourite books and have just bought myself a new copy of "How To Read A Book". If you think you know how to read, check this book out, It may change your mind. Actually I was surprised how much I had forgotten about reading until I reread this book.

Goodreads

Have been quiet on this blog, but nothing much happens around here, honestly.

Nothing I want to talk about anyway!

Have joined a new site called Goodreads. It's a bookreaders social networking site.
Apparently I can invite friends to join by giving them this link.

Books

Added blogspot blogs to my yahoo page. Easiest way to keep up with my favourite blogs. Then discovered Creation On The Web has a rss feed, so added it too. Bad move! They had a couple of articles on C.S.Lewis, so everything stopped while I read them. Don't like his novels, but find his non-fiction interesting. Same with Dorothy L. Sayers. Strangely, books I enjoy I usually don't like as films or on T.V. but books I don't like I sometimes find make good viewing.

Rain

Rain, rain and more rain. His lordship and I are sick of rain. He has a litterbox, but I try to discourage its use, except in emergencies,as I hate cleaning it out. I am the only one with a strong enough stomach to do it. Unfortunately, He had to go use it, so I have to clean it before Mum sees it, or I might have another mess to cleanup. lol

Ganeida(see link) came over to pick up the book I got for her.

The power was out in our street for two hours. No coffee for 4 whole hours! Guess I'm an addict. I was on the Internet and about to boil the jug when the power died. Rang Energex(electric company). It was apparently confined to just our street. They said it would probably take 4 hours to fix, but it actually only took two. Rang friends other end of island. Yep, they had power. Could have read by torchlight, but decided to just go take a nap until the power came back on.
