    Best wishes with what you choose to read. When I watch other book tubers my tbr ends up bigger! Currently reading the Count of Monte Critso and on page 963. Still got some way to go. Happy reading.

      Ha ha! Yes booktubers are hard on the TBR! I enjoyed the Count despite its size.

    Lovely scenery! I liked The Salt Path, so I bet I will like Landlines as well. I hope to read it and The Wild Silence at some point.

      I think it is a safe bet that you will like Landlines. I am going to go back and read The Wild Silence too.

    Happy Springathon! It's actually starting to feel springlike here, so maybe I'll find something springy too 🌞🌱 Bert

      It was a long haul but finally things are greening up! It hasn’t warmed up much though.

    My Springathon is going slowly, but it's going. Haven't got to any of my planned books, but I read Moon of the Crusted Snow and it had some very vivid descriptions of winter, snow and wind in the far north of Canada. Good story too.

      I have had Moon of the Crusted Snow on my wishlist for ages and ages. Glad you liked it!

    Just back from Scotland. I did some hiking but nothing like you describe in this book. I did start the Salt Path but put it down and did not pick it up--for the same reasons you described. This book sounds like it would be something I would like. thanks so much for the video and review. Spring starting to arrive here on the Cape. Love seeing the spring around you too,

    • @myreadinglife8816

      Oh nice! I would love to visit Scotland one day! I think Landlines is a much better book than The Salt Path.

    Happy Springathon! I have started The Sakura Obsession this week, in German, because I couldn't get an English copy. 😀

      This book has been surprisingly difficult logistically between the different titles and lack of general availability. It’s the first time this has happened to the book club.

    I really enjoyed Landlines too 😊

    Lovely vlog! I have Raynor Winn's other book (which wasn't a complete hit for you) on my shelf. I'll get to it...eventually!

    What was the little brownish red critter in your hand?

      That was an Eastern newt in the juvenile stage. So cute!
