Husband is out, child is at his grand parents. I came home to the cat yelling at me.
I can do anything I want this evening but all I'm going to do is snuggle up on the sofa and read my book.
Uninterrupted. (Except for the cat's yelling)
Bliss.

Off to #MCMComicCon today. First time going and I'm excited and anxious (crowds).
I get to see James McAvoy in the flesh. I might melt.

My 10yo has showered, picked a shirt and chino combo (very smart), sprayed body spray "I gotta smell good" and insisted I put hair spray on his hair after he styled it to keep it looking "really good".
Christmas school discos are serious business.

I had a break for a few (2) days because I couldn't choose which new book to start.
But my husband chose this one for me so it's only right I give it a read.
It better be good or I'm divorcing him.

So... book 3.5 didn't take long. It was a lovely pallet cleanser after the heaviness of book 3.
Now onto book 4... I'm not sure I'm ready for the series to end (for now).

I'm honestly so happy with my Night Court edition versions of these books too. Aesthetically pleasing to my eye 😂

I didn't discover him until later on when I had my son (except for We're Going on a Bear Hunt).
However, his poems are a staple in my classroom :)

The author who caught my attention - and that I remember vividly is Michelle Paver.
I remember picking up Wolf Brother when I was 12, based on the cover (I know, I know) and was hooked. Her stories stuck with me. I'm thinking I'll have to dig the books out again for my son...

Tough one because there are so many.
The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. A teacher told me at 7/8, "you shouldn't be reading that book. It's too hard for you." So naturally I read it out of spite. I loved the thought that an ordinary person could become part of the extraordinary.

Hello, I am Fran.
I fell in love with reading when I was a small child. My dad introduced me to the magic of Narnia, The Hobbit and then the late, great, Terry Pratchett.
I find it preferable to live in a fantasy world than the real one.

Me and Misty have just finished reading this book (I covered her eyes at certain parts 👀)
It was delightful. Full of twists and turns and beautiful imagery. I look forward to reading the next one.

When I read, I hear my own voice reading the words in my head.
I've just found out that not everybody does this.
Then I went down a rabbit hole of trying to find studies about internal monologues.
Now I have even more questions and no answers.
My inner Fran is not satisfied.
