It was good, a tiny bit saccharine......but well written and rather fascinating for those who love words.

Precious Bane by Mary Webb for the millionth time. Definitely my favorite book, along with James Herriot’s series.

it sounds more delicious than it is. it is about the food crisis (technology and food production) how we got to were we are at and where we are headed.

Anyone got any recommendations for a nice lighthearted or even silly book? It feels like every book I’ve read lately is pretty heavy in one way or another and I’m starting to feel burned out.

Look at the Ladybug Farm series.
Haven't read them in years, don't really care for that type,
but it's what I think of as insubstantial fluff.
