Just finished reading Mordew by Alex Pheby. Wow. I love it when you stumble on a great read. Its eerie black and white cover caught my eye but the blurb on the back sold it!
Loved this book, can't wait to read the next in the trilogy.

Any good reading challenges that I can do in 2025? I've set my Goodreads but I would like to try something a little different. #bookworm #readingchallenge

Here’s a New Year’s Resolution:
Be on the side that reads books — not the side that bans them.

For Saturday / #Caturday: early Irish legal texts discuss the role of cats in the household, giving high status to those who guard the barn & purr....Suggested cat names include 'Méone' (little meow) & 'Cruibne' (little paws)

Flicking through the channels not seeing anything I really want to watch, just about to give up and go to bed when I spotted Return of the King! That's me sorted 😁
