29 When you were a child what did you fantasise about doing when you grew up?
I was going to be a famous singer a la Loretta Lynn. "Lynn" was even going to be my famous last name! Probably a good thing I didn't go that way! Heh!

It's been a bit, but I'm still reading!

27. The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer
I finished this (on my tablet) and it was every bit as satisfying as the movie was. I highly recommend both!

28. A Clash of Kings by George R R Martin
2nd book in the "Song of Fire and Ice" series that we just call Game of Thrones. I'm very curious now (but no spoilers please!!) about the show. I have the first 5 seasons on DVD (borrowed from a friend) and we'll start watching them soon. His Lordship kinda, sorta watched them at his friend's house, but he missed the first season or so. This will be fun!

29. Wonder by R J Palacio
Another tablet book to read before bed. I was a little off-put (don't ask why as I don't know) about the movie trailer, but the book was solid. It is told from the kids (all of them) point of view and doesn't skimp on what it's like to be the "normal" looking child in the family. Very interesting and thought provoking. I may have to watch the movie now.

30. A Storm of Swords by George R R Martin
I'm almost done with book 3!

31. The Good Neighbor by Maxwell King
I also just started this on my tablet. I know about Mr. Rogers, but look forward to this book as well.
