When I said books, I meant one book. I don't know what happened but I can't seem to concentrate on reading so I only read one book. I'm not sure where the time went but it's gone and I can't get it back. But at least I can say I have read a book which I think is an accomplishment even if it's the greatest thing I ever done.
I think Myrtle is a great character and her governess Miss Judson is also someone quite likable. I had a somewhat good time reading this book. There were a lot of amusing moments but maybe I had too many children's mystery book but I find this somewhat boring but that might be because I wasn't in a good mood when I read this.
I'm not sure I like the footnotes. As I'm reading an ebook version, I have to click on the symbols and see the footnotes but it just became annoying so I ended up reading the footnotes at the end of the chapter instead. If I'm reading a paperback or a hardcover, I can just see the notes at the bottom of the page which I prefer. I suppose since this is a children's book, these footnotes useful in helping them learn new things but are they necessary to the story? Not really.
Have you read any good books in July?
Hey I like your new blog!
ReplyDeleteGreg: I'm glad you like it.

Not necessary for you, but like you said, this book is for children, so the footnotes are necessary to help them learn. If you find them annoying just ignore them. I've managed to read 27 ebooks from the first week in June until now, and a couple of real paper books as well. I won't give you titles because they won't interest you, being adult murder mysteries.
ReplyDeleteRiver: 27 books? I wish I had read at least half that amount. I do sometimes read adult murder mysteries but I guess I lean toward more cozy mysteries.

Nice to have a change to a new blog!
ReplyDeleteChristine: Yes, I think so as well. Thank you for dropping by. Have a lovely day.
DeleteLove your new setup 😍 I read about 3 whole books last month, which is the pits. Used to read that many books in a week! Like you, I don't know where the time went, but I hope to do better next year. Sending lots of hugs 🤗
ReplyDeleteRo: 3 is still better than 1. I also hope to read more books but I don't know.
DeleteThank you for dropping by. Have a lovely day.
I like your new blog! It's pretty and clean and I'm excited to see what you do with it.
ReplyDeleteI actually really enjoyed this book. I listened to it on audio, so maybe it's more enjoyable that way? At any rate, I found it entertaining.
Susan: I'm glad you like 'Premediated Myrtle.' I read the ebook version so maybe the audio version is more enjoyable. I think I was too restless to enjoy the book.
