Comment: I loved the photos you sent for this swap. The one of the rapids is beautiful. I thought of taking pics in a cemetery also, but did not get to visit one. The noise coming from the drummer is easy to imagine. I have been to Millenium Park several times. I fine the faces sculpture to be interesting, but my favorite there is the "egg". I know your beetle is small, but your photo would be great to use in a collage with some little images of people or buildings. LOL

Comment: First off, thank you so much for the beautiful picture on canvas! I'm going to frame it and hang it on the wall. Second, I couldn't agree with you more about this book. In fact, my last paragraph about it to Renee was almost identical to yours -- I read that same interview with the author. For me, the author not reading the source material for this book reflects not only on her, but also on the series as a whole. How am I suppose to trust a series that claims it's remixing classics if they aren't even reading the classics to begin with?

I just read a piece about the Appalachian Trail and thought it'd be cool to do. I don't think I'm up to the whole journey, but maybe a bit of it at a time. I'd love to see that part of the country. I lived in Tennessee when I was little, but haven't been along the trail there.

I felt like it was an assignment -- "Write a novel in the gothic style and include at least 3 atrocities." You articulated what I was feeling when you said the problem was that we were looking in from the outside. Yes! I just couldn't get attached to any of the characters or feel immersed in the story. Also, thank you soooooo much for the beautiful postcard and little jackdaw drawing! I'm really excited to add the postcard to my collection.

Comment: 'Wifedom: Mrs. Orwell's Invisible Life" is now on my list because it sounds super interesting, much like books written about Charles Dickens's wife. Have you read 'The Invisible Woman' by Claire Tomalin? I also read 'Convenience Store Woman' but I wasn't too sure about it. It was the audiobook version also so maybe a reread is in order. The rest of your books sounded intriguing! Thanks for the great reviews. xxMuggleMom

I've read all the books but when they switched narrators on books # 21&22, I about lost my mind but I see they have the original narrator back for #23!! More of Mr J.L.B. Matekoni please! I've also added a few books from your list, even the work-related books. The Invention of Murder: how the Victorians revelled in Death and Detection and created Modern Crime by Judith Flanders sounds great. Have you read any of Kate Summerscales Victorian murder research books. I think I've read 3 of her books and I hope she writes more!. xxMuggleMom
Response: Thanks! I had a feeling that some of the work-related books would interest you, and I suspect the ones I'm going to be reading over the next few months will be the same. That's why I like doing this swap with you and Carol -- we're all willing to consider books from right across the genre spectrum! I think you'd like the Flanders and her other books as well if you've not read them. I haven't read any of the Kate Summerscales yet but they're on my list!

Comment: I absolutely LOVED these postcards, they're right up my alley! Thank you so much for trading! And were you near Horner Park? I used to have a PO Box right off the Kimball Brown Line. What a fun coincidence!
Response: We were about a mile from Horner Park -- I used to ride my bike there in the summer and sled down the hill in the winter! Always followed by ice cream at the Tastee Freeze across the road. I went to Bateman School. I agree -- a fun coincidence!

Response: Mystery solved -- the Post Office returned my original envelope today (13 April) with a sticker saying 'Non-compliant postal item identifier'. Not quite sure what that means (maybe it should have had a customs sticker) but at least we now know where the first send went. Sorry about all the complications!

The info about training in 6 months will be GREAT since I have changed the plan around and won't be going to Nashville in April and now have until Oct! Also, the travel anxiety - super helpful, and I will keep it handy for when I do need to travel out of state! A lovely letter and I really appreciate the encouragement!

I feel like mine was slacking this month...hmm, may add a bit more...The Angels of Venice sounded interesting and definitely I'm a Richard Osman fan (eagerly awaiting #4 supposedly winter 2023?) so thanks for the heads up about the Marlow Murder Club - I'll pass. The new Lucy Worsley book is on my TBR list so I'll have to push it up to read soon. Worsley always does a great job showing her research I find. Still slowly ticking away at all the Agatha series. Team Marple or Team Poirot - undecided... I hope you remain upbeat about the pending hospital stay and of course, I wish you a speedy recovery. xxMuggleMom

Sounds like a book I would have picked up myself for sure. I had the same response to The Midnight Library as you did. I think I gave it 3 stars mainly because Carey Mulligan was the narrator. I might give Haven by Emma Donaghue a chance because I have liked 2 out of the 4 books I've read of hers, kinda hit or miss. I think I bought the audio.com Father Brown series (love Mark Williams in the TV series - but he'll always be Arthur Weasley in my eyes) and I'll have to check into the rest of the books you mention as well as the link to the program. Thanks for always giving such great reviews that make me rush to my laptop to start downloading new books!! xxMuggleMom

I loved the movie so I'm putting that down next because it works for my book club's November genre also! I'm very interested in how you like Haven by Emma Donoghue as I love love her novel "The Pull of the Stars" but didn't like her "Room" story. Can't win them all I guess. Added "Bad Day at the Vulture Club" on the tbr list. Last but not least I started "Girl, Woman, Other" and Anna-Maria Nabirye's narration is fantastic! It feels like she's my friend and we are having a long heart to heart chat so far. Its an easy 5 star for me already! xxMuggleMom
Response: I've not seen the movie but a lot of reviewers reckon the book of 'Miss Pettigrew' is even better. I look forward to seeing what you think. And so far I'm loving 'Haven'.

I hope you and your wife enjoyed the festivities in Birmingham! Having a queer hiking group sounds awesome! I'd love to be a part of one in my area--I'll have to check! Thanks so much!!
Response: And if there isn't a queer hiking group in your area, maybe you could start one! The Pride stamps are great. The Royal Mail actually issued a group of 8 Pride stamps -- 4 first class and 4 for international letters.

Comment: I had the same views about Life of Pi. I just could not relate to the main character. Your review just reminded me of that. It is also interesting to note how many of the novels from this decade won the Man Booker Prize. It also makes me question what are the aspects based on which they are selected. Interesting indeed!

I'm interested in Paradise by Abdulrazak Gurnah so maybe when I'm in the right mind space I will pick it up - based on your review. xxMuggleMom

I absolutely love the 'Cold' photo and the transformational art. The tropical butterfly is lovely and reminds me of a nearby Butterly Conservatory in Cambridge Ontario. And the leathery large purple leaves of the plant look lovely in the sunshine. Well deserving of a Coordinator Star for this swap. 🤗

I rated it 3 stars myself because tho I appreciated it and saw how the book influenced other authors/books/stories, the original didn't have the same "shiny" newness as you stated. I love your response about listening to the original - waiting for the story's next installment must have been key to your fond memories.

Comment: Comment: The lensball is so cool. I think I need to buy one of those and experiment. Looks like a lot of fun. I too have a forsythia in my backyard garden. The yellow blossoms are a welcome sign of spring each year. Beautiful work on the photo notecards. Apple blossoms are another one of my favourite springtime blossoms. I love the close-up poppy photo. Great package BH. Thank you!
Response: I've just bought a good book, The Lensball Photography Handbook by Marvin Lei which is helping me understand better what I can do with it. (There are various other lensball books on Amazon -- mostly useless and worth avoiding!) But the main thing is, as you suggest, just playing and experimenting. One warning -- avoid using it in direct sunlight -- it focuses the sun's rays like a magnifying glass (remember setting fire to paper when we were kids?) and you can get burnt. I say that from experience!

Comment: Great email as we both chose the same book. I, too, knew of the book & movie but hadn't read/seen either - still haven't seen the movie yet. I was impressed but I would have liked the author to go into more detail about the harsh racism that people of color experienced on a daily basis in that timeframe. Racism is an element in the book but it is not gritty and seems "glossed over". I get that the story is about succeeding when everyone else had failed or given up but I think the "teacher" deserves more credit for showing up every day to teach and inspire when his own world was as difficult as the students. In the book, Mr. Braithwaite basically goes home and comes back to teach and we never really hear about his life, his fears, his dreams, all the obstacles he overcomes to put on a suit and show up to work, etc... I hope your surgery is easy and you are back to rights as soon as possible. Thanks for hosting these swaps, #2 is already read & done. I've got my book for #3 too- I wonder if we will pick the same book again?! xxMuggleMom

The Graham Law, Serializing Fiction in the Victorian Press sounds like a fantastic read. I'll be requesting it as an ILL next time I have a book pickup. Also, I didn't know about the BBC radio books. I listen to the BBC World Book Club, but wasn't aware of the free audio book. I mostly use Hoopla (supported by your local library) or YouTube (just learned today the entire Disc World series is on there.
Response: Have a look to see if you can download BBC Sounds, which is the portal to on-demand BBC radio. I've Googled 'BBC Sounds and USA' and it looks possible -- see https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/help/questions/listening-outside-the-uk/listen-outside-uk#:~:text=You%20can%20listen%20to%20most,from%20anywhere%20in%20the%20world. (sorry that's such a long URL!). BBC Radio 4 does a Book of the Week (usualy non-fiction) and a Book at Bedtime (fiction) as well as a fun programme called A Good Read where they get two prominent people on to recommend and discuss a favourtie book. Good luck and thanks for the rating.

I found one by/about David Tennent (love him!) and was so excited, but then it sounded more like someone recorded a conversation with him from their cell phone - in their pocket! It made no sense and was just disappointing. So I do understand that feeling. But with 2 'bad' ones out of the way, the rest of the year will be better, right? :) Here's hoping!

Comment: Betty, your tree postcard came in today's mail! You did some intricate cutting on it. I loved the little rabbit by the base of the tree! And thanks for using some unique (to me) stamps on the back - I have never heard of Postman Pat, but I'm guessing he's a mascot like our Mr. Zip. Thank you so much for a nice swap! I hope we get partnered again in the future! Happy 2019!!
Response: Thanks for the rating and for being my partner. Postman Pat is a character from children's TV -- probably anyone who was a pre-schooler or the mother of a pre-schooler in England during the 1980s and 1990s will have the Postman Pat song permanently in their memory! He's a rural postman and in each episode, he and his black and white cat not only deliver the mail but also get involved in other problems -- stopping a runaway train, rescuing , a cat up a tree, fixing the broken ice-cream machine and so on. Interestingly the Royal Mail did use Postman Pat as a mascot for a while as well.

Comment: Oh, your chain is so elegant! My daughter wanted a "normal" tree this year, so she declared that only red, green, and white ornaments would be allowed on the Norfolk Island "pine" tree in the main room of the house ... needless to say, the gorgeously red, white and green decoration, so neatly knitted, was perfect! (In rebellion, the remaining family members have created a unicorn, dragon, dinosaur and sparkly rainbow pastel tree in the opposite window of the room, but that's another matter :)

Response: It was sold as 200 gram colour copy paper. It's made by a company called Mondi and comes in A4 sheets -- I bought a ream of it. You're right -- it's beautifully smooth and takes colour well. It's actually too thick to go smoothly through the printer where I work so I just use it for hand crafting. I bought it from Amazon UK back in 2014 and still have loads left -- I mostly do inchies and postcards and ATCs so a sheet generally makes several items. It cost just under £8 for 250 sheets.

Comment: Thanks so much for the Hogmanay cards! I am so excited by the black bun idea -- I had heard of it but didn't know what it was, exactly. I love dried fruit puddings, cakes and pies so .. yum! I would probably fall asleep early on the night, but first footing would be fun. Not that I would be the lucky one! I am short, fair and female :)

Comment: Hello! Thank you for the beautiful card and Robert Burns mini-zine! The little illustrations are great. I found myself in the same boat in that some of my favorite Burns poems were long, so I had to settle for using a few excerpts in my own effort. Your mini-zine arrived with my first mail since Thursday--our snow has pushed everything off schedule. Thanks again!

Response: Wrong, I'm afraid -- I was born in the USA but have lived in England for over 20 years. My grandfather was Norwegian, hence my Norwegian name, but I've never been there. The true statement was that I went on holiday to Bulgaria last year - we spent a few days in Sofia and then a week in Veliko Tarnova in central Bulgaria. Lovely countryside and fabulous churches, but still quite a poor country.

They would put a safety pin through an outer skin layer on their bellies and pin them to your shirt. After the circus our dad swung by the store and bought us a terrarium for them. So Un-PC today.

I also LOVE the postcards (I hardly have any UK ones, and am thrilled you sent so many and that many of them are maps!) and the CD of Scandinavian music!! The table runner is really pretty, the bracelets are fun. And while I'm normally not a fan of receiving food or drink items, the tea you included was nicely packaged (and smells really nice!) and doesn't look like it's been sitting around in a cupboard. ;-) So I just might have to try some, and if not, will find it a good home!

There's only 3 genres I really don't like: horror, chicklit and some romance. So don't worry for the other genres, poetry is great. It really seems like a special book. An entire story written in poetryform, I never read something like that before. I'm looking forward to read it. Love the extras too, the cookies are my favorites O:-) Thank you.

Comment: Betty, I love my dragons! The puppet (not sure what else to call it) is terrific, and it didn't get squished! The necklace and the charm are really lovely. But the absolute best thing is the wall hanging - it is soooooo nice, and I have the perfect place for it. Thank you again for another absolutely fabulous swap.
Response: I am SOOO glad that the puppet (I think it's a puppet!) survived his flight from Birmingham to Derbyshire. And I'm glad you liked the wall hanging -- I found it in one of the Chinese shops in Birmingham city centre and really likedit.

I absolutely adored the miniatures for my doll house. I have not seen these particular ones here. I am really impressed with your card, the picture is gorgeous. The craft items will surely be used and I love receiving candies from other places. The pad of paper is just what I would have chosen for myself. Thanks again and I hope we swap again sometime where I can be your partner. Pat
