I didn't know you could take 30 books out at a time. Up until recently I had a book I took out of Farnworth library in 1974 and forgot to take back. Can't find it now, but I do remember it was a selection of Sherlock Holmes short stories, although not written by Conan Doyle, but his son, in collaboration with someone else.Natasha Whittam wrote:On the last day before the lockdown I took 30 books from my local library.
Even though I was the only one in the library, I felt under pressure to get my 30 books quickly as the librarian was watching me - as though I was going to start licking the books.
There was no method to my madness so I somehow came away with "The Madonna of Bolton" by Matt Cain, a story about a gay bloke from Bolton whose life was heavily influenced by Madonna and her lyrics. Sounds shit, but actually pretty good, if only for the references to 80's and 90's Bolton.
Sounds like the title of Eric's autobiography.okocha wrote:Highly recommended: This Is Going To Hurt, by Adam kay.
Hilarious but also heart-breaking and definite food for thought in the current climate. Been in the best-seller lists for ages, and I can see why....Brilliantly written.

I joined Audible a few years ago, and I usually listen on one of my walks. Not a big fan of Librivox due to some of their narrators being less than adequate. However, it's free, and that can't be bad.sunlight wrote:I dont take drugs, nor do I wish to. I do enjoy reading from people of the past. As I have housework to do, I have been listening to audio books.
Today I have been listening to `Confessions of an English Opium Eater ` by Thomas de Quincey. I am a huge fan of Wordsworth and Coleridge and saw this book by one of their group. It is a delight so far, I am on new ground and dont know much about him, so far so good with this book. `A wind so strong you can put your back against it and use it as a post `. He describes sitting in a Cottage by the fire and his reasons for liking Winter, which are quite agreeable. I have an affinity with this.
Only one chapter in, a random one, I will start at the beginning soon.
There are lots of audio books in the public domain, like this one.

The best things in life are free.
I only hope I dont find some horror about him at some point in the future to ruin this. I am ignorant of the man other than a brief reading through his wiki.
