But while I was in Melb I wasn't really "present", it was a weird time. I do remember seeing an Australian Idol float in St Kilda, near where I was living in Elwood, but I didn't watch it. Didn't really watch any television, actually. And while I was in Japan, it was like being gagged and blindfolded in terms of what's going on elsewhere in the world - you're in a black hole of news! Weird times. Can't wait to get back.Shannon (Giraffe Days)http://www.giraffedays.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18884029.post-11109055238985205252013-04-24T18:39:50.058+10:002013-04-24T18:39:50.058+10:00Just added an early post to this week and a late p...Just added an early post to this week and a late post to last week's loot!<br /><br />last week - http://www.anglersrest.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/library-loot-17th-23rd-april.html<br /><br />this week - http://www.anglersrest.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/library-loot-24th-april.htmlJulie Goucherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11368170005503879489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18884029.post-62731890644912705862013-04-21T11:14:54.899+10:002013-04-21T11:14:54.899+10:00I think my sister is going to have a word with the...I think my sister is going to have a word with the teacher to suggest that they can steer him towards another book next library day.Marghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13508430635744720721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18884029.post-86785383041111082482013-04-21T11:13:42.121+10:002013-04-21T11:13:42.121+10:00How long ago did you leave Australia Shannon?

I was upset because I loved it so much, but my mother made my year by taking me to the bookstore to buy it. She told me later that she got off easy: "Most parents get notes because their child is fighting in school or not paying attention. I got a note telling me something I already knew -- my daughter loved books."<br /><br />I've been wanting to read Will Grayson Will Grayson -- that may be one of my next picks. India Black is also on my radar screen. I love all things Victorian.Ruth @ Bookish Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01630605531271082813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18884029.post-16989389724999409212013-04-20T05:54:47.564+10:002013-04-20T05:54:47.564+10:00I don't think I've heard of the India Blac...I don't think I've heard of the India Black series - but I'm not going to try it until I read the Lady Grey books!
