| It’s finally happened: A Louise Penny book that I did not immediately give five stars to, although after reading the whole book, I found that I liked it more than my initial impression. I’m going to try and avoid big spoilers but given how vague the ...more | |

It seems like I’m reading a book from the Midsomer Murders series once every two years, which probably tracks with all the other series that I want to continue reading but always forget to do so. A Ghost in the Machine follows the inhabitants of Forbe ...more |

| It’s another book from my book club!! I actually missed the previous book club pick (Atmosphere, I’m guessing most people will know the author since it’s a new release?) so I was determined to read this one. And even though I went into this book cold ...more | |

| This year seems to be a bit of a rediscovering children’s fiction year, since I finally read Winnie the Pooh, Moomin, and now Paddington Bear for the first time. And what I found was that I really enjoyed Paddington Bear. It’s a very fun and charming ...more | |

“And it is I, Raksha [The Demon], who answers. The man’s cub is mine, Lungri–mine to me! He shall not be killed. He shall live to run with the Pack and to hunt with the Pack; and in the end, look you, hunter of little naked cubs–frog-eater– fish-killer–he shall hunt thee!”

“The python dropped his head lightly for a moment on Mowgli's shoulders. "A brave heart and a courteous tongue," said he. "They shall carry thee far through the jungle, manling. But now go hence quickly with thy friends. Go and sleep, for the moon sets and what follows it is not well that thou shouldst see.”

“It is you who are unpoetical," replied the poet Syme. "If what you say of clerks is true, they can only be as prosaic as your poetry. The rare, strange thing is to hit the mark; the gross, obvious thing is to miss it. We feel it is epical when man with one wild arrow strikes a distant bird. Is it not also epical when man with one wild engine strikes a distant station? Chaos is dull; because in chaos the train might indeed go anywhere, to Baker Street or to Bagdad. But man is a magician, and his whole magic is in this, that he does say Victoria, and lo! it is Victoria. No, take your books of mere poetry and prose; let me read a time table, with tears of pride. Take your Byron, who commemorates the defeats of man; give me Bradshaw, who commemorates his victories. Give me Bradshaw, I say!”
