6. My reading mojo has deserted me
Sun Aug 8, 2021, 12:17 PM
Aug 2021

Been reading "Murder on the Clifftops" by Betty Rowlands for over a week. Not halfway through it yet. It's not gripping.

Still have the book buying mojo. Visited Sedbergh which markets itself as "England's Book Town". Got quite a haul. Then, the weather being awful, went to Carlisle where there is one of the North's best bookshops. Another haul.

Even went to a gig. "The Drifters". Fantastic.

Stay healthy!
