Complaint: it’s cold!

Complaint: it’s going to rain this weekend and melt all the snow!

Uncomplaining: I finished my book! Onto the next book!

Uncomplaining: was nice to get a longer than normal run in yesterday!

Do you have your next book picked out?

So cold.. I want to run this morning but it says feels like 20. Ugh

I’d take 20, it was -5F here this morning

I have my next two books already picked out, I keep 4 books in my LFL book exchange rotation (used to be just two but my partner occasionally decides he wants to read one so I upped it so he doesn’t hold up the que and so I can often wait till I’m on a trip to change them out as I like to hunt them on vacation runs) so next is “all the light we cannot see” which will be followed by “welcome to the god damn ice cube”

I didn't read the book but thought the TV series of All the Light was pretty good! In case you want to watch after you read it.

Didn’t know there was a tv series from the book, what platform is it on? Maybe I’ll check it out after I finish the book if I like the book.
