    Lol I know what you mean.. I read one page but put it down until I have a chunk of time.. I also put myself on waiting list for library for digital copy as I read while I ride my exercise bike.. I am 10 on list so hopefully that will come through soon :)

    Oh my gosh! I was **JUST** thinking about you the other day and wondering where you were. I'm so glad to see your face!!!! How have you been?

    Did you read the newest one? I'm really trying to slow down my reading, but I can't help it and keeping pressing next page too quickly. I want to savor all the new plots/characters, but at the same time I'm like, give me all the stuff now!

    You're so sweet! I see your lovely face in my IG feed. I've been well. I took the past year off from scrapping so I could focus on my watercolor art, but I'm ready to dust off Photoshop and get geared up for MOC 2022! I regret not doing it this year. Can't let that happen again!

    I haven't read the latest Outlander, but I did buy the audio book. It's almost 50 hours!! I'll be digging into it when I wrap up what I'm currently reading. Can't wait! @gonewiththewind

    I'm soooooo glad you'll be scrapping with us again. Sometimes you just need a break, but I have to admit that I missed your smile and sweet disposition here!

    I finished book 9 Bees on Saturday the 18th.. I was like “what?!” At the end.. I expected to turn the page and I was starring at a cliff hanger!! Lol. Loved it but need to re read!


    Ps the LJG books and other side books are definitely well worth reading!!

    I haven't read the books. I tried watching the series but Claire drove me insane. She goes from "I am woman, hear me roar" to simpering and sole-less in the matter of moments. I got halfway through the first season and stopped. I'm wondering if I'm the only person who doesn't like it?

    Claire is a strong character with moments of weakness, sadness, depression, stress, like any of us. The books have much more depth IMO. But I love the series as well. You have to give any show/book series time to understand it. :)

    Even in the first two books she drove me a bit insane. It helps a lot when you get further into the books because there are soooo many characters and stories going on.

    I'm on chapter 14. I'm reading it as slowly as I can knowing there will be years before book 10. Lol. I'm just enjoying the story and the characters. It's like going home to visit old friends!

    who has finished? Anyone? I am reading it sloooooowly. I don't really want it to end, so I'm only reading a portion of a chapter each day. I have it in hardcover and audible. I read a bit, then listen to that portion. LOL. I just know that when I'm done with it I'll have to re-read things to keep my Outlander addiction going through the time with no new book.

    I'm also enjoying season 6 on Starz and trying to keep things straight. lol
