Roxanne (13 KP) rated The Grandparent's Book in Books
Nov 14, 2018
I borrowed this book from the library for my mum and dad to read but i thought I would read it too so we could all talk about it. I was very pleasantly surprised by this book, it is packed full of information for not just grandparents but parents as well. It has sections which answer some probing questions you might have (questions that real people in real situations have asked the author)which I found very helpful. The book covers pretty much everything you would need to know about the child-parent-grandparent relationship, I can't actually think of anything that it might have missed...very thorough. It covers everything from emotions, relationships, financial aid, education, health issues and many other useful topics. I highly recommend this book to all grandparents.

Intelligent conversation
Fantastic Research
Mysteries and the paranormal from around the world, from Dyatlov Pass and the Bloop to the Money Pit and the Black Monk of Pontefract. Scott and Forrest discuss the whole case, with excellent research support from the Astonishing Research Corps, and all of the possible explanations, from the very sensible to the utterly outlandish, without being judgemental, but with a healthy dose of scepticism. It can feel a bit like listening in on a conversation between two old friends, talking about the weird and wonderful backed up by a library of esoteric knowledge. With the research corps including astrophysicists and professional researchers, you can be confident that any topic has been thoroughly investigated from all angles.
A fascinating podcast, great to listen to for sceptics and believers alike.

I wouldn't be without this
As an avid reader, I never like to be without a book. With the Kindle and Kindle app, I never have to worry.
Now don't get me wrong, I also love the sensation of holding an actual book, and smelling the pages (yes, I am a book sniffer), but sometimes it is easier to read from my phone.
As I don't drive, public transport is my friend, and sometimes trying to read a book when in the middle or the rush hour commute, with your face squashed into a stranger's armpit, and an elbow digging into your back, reading on my phone is so much easier!!

Sophia (Bookwyrming Thoughts) (530 KP) rated Geekerella (Once Upon a Con #1) in Books
Mar 26, 2020
Geekerella is such an adorable and cute read featuring everything fandom related. It’s a retelling of Cinderella with a happily ever after and set at a convention, which really makes the inner fangirl in me sigh happily. The first novel in Ashley Posten’s Once Upon a Con series is a quick and light read for those who enjoy cute romances with fandom.
Side note: my local library removed this from the Hoopla catalog when I tried renewing it back in June and I may or may not have cried a little inside. I had to put this on my TBR again and start it over, rude much??? I still appreciate all they’ve done, though. (Other than the fact I more than likely lost my soul during my childhood within the shelves.)

Sophia (Bookwyrming Thoughts) (530 KP) rated Jade City (The Green Bone Saga #1) in Books
Mar 27, 2020
Jade City caused SO. MUCH. DISTRESS. In a good way, thankfully. Fonda Lee creates characters that will make you want to be invested in and care about them, but then rip out your heart while you’re crying. The story was a little hard to get into at first only because I spend 98% of my reading with YA, but once I got used to it, I really enjoyed Jade City! I loved being immersed in the world of Kekon and jade with the growing tensions between the No Peak and Mountain clans. It keeps you on the edge of your seat, wanting to know when and if something will explode between the clans, and I’m on the hunt for Jade War as soon as my library pile dwindles down.
