Loved Miss Cordelia's Accomodation!

Only four hours on audio so why not? Trying to put myself in a good spot for finishing Trollope’s novels by the end of 2026.

Aww Charles!

In an attempt to meet my nonfiction goal this year, I thought I’d round out 2025 with a third WWII diary! It’s been a great way to mark 80 years since the end of the war this year.

And yourself, without overreaching,
And your friend, through nature’s teaching,
And your foe, vengeance rejecting.
