Welcome to my weekly newsletter where I do a little summary of what’s been making me smile this week, and a quick catch up of what I’ve been working on.
Oh I so feel you when it comes to reading these days. I miss the time when I managed to get through two or three books a week. Granted, that was way back in school but still. I've been trying to get back into reading, this week, by taking some time before bed. It's not a lot but I get through at least a few pages so I'll count that as a success!
If I wasn't already working on a blanket, I might have joined the KAL this year. There is always next year, though, so maybe then I'll manage it. And have enough scarp sock yarn for it. Might be worth frogging the other sock yarn square I have. Ah well, it's still time to decide.
Totally agree, like you I try to read before bed but depending on how tired I am, I don't always get very far. Or I end up rereading the same few pages 😂
That happenes sometimes, too. I usually get so sucked into the book that I forget to sleep. There have been many nights with little sleep because the book was too good to put away.
My reading has slowed a lot since I started crafting. I still read first thing in the morning and before bed but I tend to go for audio books during the day to get my literature fix whilst crocheting. I miss the days of getting through a couple of books a week but the call of yarn is just too strong 😂
It was so absorbing - and couldn't believe the singing voices. I really thought they were using music from years ago from a known band. The fact that it was all created for the show was just amazing
Love Daisy Jones and the Six. I was a bit nervous about watching as I love the book but it is the best book to screen adaptation I have ever seen. I did get a bit distracted by all the crochet though, I have a long list of ideas for 70s Daisy Jones inspired summer makes 😀
Hope you find your reading fiction groove soon. I've written about my April reading this week - there might be something that takes your fancy! https://junegirvin.substack.com
I’m reading a lot at the moment as I’m on holiday. I am so enjoying the fictional novels, I must keep it up once home. I’ve also got an audio book on the go as I enjoy knitting and listening.

Such a lovely round up! I also loved DJ & the 6. :) x

I haven't read the book but it's definitely on my list.
