Hi all!
It’s been forever! I’ve been super busy with school, and of course, reading. I’ve recently finished Six of Crows. I got this beautiful Collector’s Edition, from the biggest Waterstones in the UK (London!). I was so excited to read it, and dutifully carried it to school, back and forth. It’s a hardcover book, so very heavy :( Anyway, I struggled to get into it, if I’m honest. Has anyone else read it, and what did you think?
What are you all reading at the moment? I’d love to know!
Happy Reading!

Hi guys.
I’ve just received the “read 75 books” badge!
What’s your favourite book?

A little poem/song for Remembrance Day

My heart is aching, yearning for each man,
They let go of our hands, and walk slowly away.
Leave us this day, come back so soon.
Promise you’ll be back? I shall count down the days.

Wrap your arms around me, you have to let go,
I wish this would stop, crash goes the bomb.
Run to the shelter, no time to wave goodbye.
This war is so wrong. The men are gone.

Seconds feel like days, days like years,
Years really do pass, goodbye, goodbye.
People leaving and coming, life has change.
Can’t remember the look of your face, oh why, oh why.

Very little food, I’m used to it now.
You’re a distant memory, like a long-gone dream.
Mother looked after me, her mind is longing, I look after Mother.
Father come back, hard work for you me.

A high pitched whistle; run fast out the gate.
A bustle of injured men, not everyone’s there.
“What’s going on?” our mouths drop open.
Familiar short dark hair.

A wheelchair, some bandages,
But it’s really you!
I literally can’t stop crying, Father.
So much emotion, it’s true.

My tears go into this poem.
My feelings, so now you know,
What it truly felt like.
At our age, all those years ago.

Also! I’m challenging to read at least one of these books!:
