Three walls of books, floor to ceiling, all English language fiction (the rest of the house is full of other books). The fourth wall has a window with a good couch in front. The little ladder is the finishing touch. We&#39;re really happy with it.<br/><br/>The piano is in the middle, because we couldn&#39;t afford a separate music room, haha. <br/><br/>And yourself, Bob on Books?<br/><br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1q60zc05dx303nj349e2sdeys2yegx5cpv9ghn46vwg935z5wgwss93kp90" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Bookstodon Group</span> (<span class="italic">npub1q60…kp90</span>)</a></span><br/> <img src="https://mastodon.nl/system/media_attachments/files/116/569/009/615/744/511/original/0b55b3c2db9a80d5.jpg"> <br/> 2026-05-13T19:55:12Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqswerdsyltfdxynll5vcna980u5pch8h0plk5kg6grrur07dec8cfczypg8lu6jwpr3zc8znej9kf025e5ra8ruy8nnxjnpfaakrpx7qrqkqs0e9mn #SilentSunday<br/> <img src="https://mastodon.nl/system/media_attachments/files/116/469/390/763/335/541/original/d4de00272b3cc5af.jpg"> <br/> 2026-04-26T05:41:13Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsve0maejruakc5l2enpa8r3u38083p94hm650mc3x5w4a6nm7c8dczypg8lu6jwpr3zc8znej9kf025e5ra8ruy8nnxjnpfaakrpx7qrqkq85d4nv In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs2fmd3ht4zvl9pmpmfgguw625nqzfmqj4erzw2884uucyaqs37dmcfamctp'>nevent1q…mctp</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Yes!

This book is about a group of people in a neighbourhood where all of them suffer from the consequences of gang violence. Some of them are involved, others stay away from it. But like all everyday people, each of them has their own dreams. The art of graffiti plays an important role.<br/><br/>O&#39;Nan creates a whole world from their different perspectives, unique voices and stories. He is such a good writer! 2026-04-10T08:07:19Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsp5ah60k8r0l4zmlhfnlexteguypzfm23kkdywyzk8xan3jq0uwagzypg8lu6jwpr3zc8znej9kf025e5ra8ruy8nnxjnpfaakrpx7qrqkqduj3cr <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1q60zc05dx303nj349e2sdeys2yegx5cpv9ghn46vwg935z5wgwss93kp90" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Bookstodon Group</span> (<span class="italic">npub1q60…kp90</span>)</a></span> <br/><br/>R.C. Sherriff - The Fortnight in September (1931)<br/><br/>As every year, a family spends their holiday at the seaside. Nothing spectacular happens, but they enjoy themselves and each of them has their own insecurities. <br/><br/>I loved the ordinariness and innocence of this book and found their small worries funny.<br/><br/>I kept wondering if the author meant it to be slightly ironic. Were people really more innocent 100 years ago? Or have I become too cynical to believe such innocence to be real? 2026-04-06T13:08:11Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqspu0mq3ya8amu82vy5fj672yt2z79x003khk0wq0883q0ltzh50sszypg8lu6jwpr3zc8znej9kf025e5ra8ruy8nnxjnpfaakrpx7qrqkqngm6w4 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsydeg4d683ayxx0fwvstg3ppd4dnh94rtp84tn22j0x0w9xzz4hpctwsf47'>nevent1q…sf47</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Jammer!

He learns the workings of his society with all the diverse population. It&#39;s a world on the verge of disappearing by the arrival of the Europeans<br/><br/>I loved the atmosphere of this book.

She is in her sixties now and it&#39;s the covid lockdown. Her eldest daughter comes to stay with her. Slowly and uncomfortably they start to face their issues. Family is who you love, hate and are stuck with.<br/><br/>Doyle is very good at writing about ordinary people and their problems without getting overly dramatic. I love his dialogues: jumpy, funny and very real life. 2026-03-21T10:10:12Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs9np5lh0fnrwy8qsjmtye4rj456fpqfwk6nwjksa50kn0ttzk7gygzypg8lu6jwpr3zc8znej9kf025e5ra8ruy8nnxjnpfaakrpx7qrqkqycpalp #MonochromeMarch #Monochrome<br/> <img src="https://mastodon.nl/system/media_attachments/files/116/265/905/720/215/491/original/2cdeebce2de4dcf2.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-03-21T07:09:59Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs0dq5jzf2y9j5faztmece8ry0snw9389wa064xjre5ehyes7fchvgzypg8lu6jwpr3zc8znej9kf025e5ra8ruy8nnxjnpfaakrpx7qrqkqxhxgfu #MonochromeMarch #Monochrome<br/> <img src="https://mastodon.nl/system/media_attachments/files/116/243/295/752/596/470/original/ccac2b4b2a6a08a1.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-03-17T07:20:48Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs9v2c5pl099flt9udjhwqa8kx0a9hlte5q4mg63k9w4th8pf3yrnczypg8lu6jwpr3zc8znej9kf025e5ra8ruy8nnxjnpfaakrpx7qrqkqqnaqyj Did these women know that it is #MonochromeMarch ? 😀<br/> <img src="https://mastodon.nl/system/media_attachments/files/116/237/336/445/325/203/original/1f9ed9c0206453c2.jpg"> <br/> 2026-03-16T06:06:47Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsgl05am3r57s5hk472wmwxe43890mku2w22fn8935rnafgac35vvgzypg8lu6jwpr3zc8znej9kf025e5ra8ruy8nnxjnpfaakrpx7qrqkq6q4pmc <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1q60zc05dx303nj349e2sdeys2yegx5cpv9ghn46vwg935z5wgwss93kp90" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Bookstodon Group</span> (<span class="italic">npub1q60…kp90</span>)</a></span> <br/><br/>Silent Bones - Val McDermid<br/><br/>This crime novel has everything you want. It starts with a buried body that is uncovered after a landslide. Police officer Karen Pirie and her team unravel a complicated plot, which I almost lost sometimes, but that is part of the fun of the genre. <br/><br/>Above all it offers terrific writing, good dialogues, a set of wonderful characters, with many personal touches of their personal lives. As a bonus it features a book club. 2026-03-15T15:05:22Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsvkc9lxp7jurms68y732lqlfpflrtkzmcjgrslmezulws7gdnc92szypg8lu6jwpr3zc8znej9kf025e5ra8ruy8nnxjnpfaakrpx7qrqkqrrzm80 #SilentSunday #MonochromeMarch #Monochrome<br/> <img src="https://mastodon.nl/system/media_attachments/files/116/231/882/730/784/471/original/ccf52d6b7a2107f4.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-03-15T06:58:19Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsdmqlu2xtyvmpt4p4uaycmpvw4cqjac8rw6thnc0eph8ehy85nxzgzypg8lu6jwpr3zc8znej9kf025e5ra8ruy8nnxjnpfaakrpx7qrqkq2cu7kt #MonochromeMarch #Monochrome<br/> <img src="https://mastodon.nl/system/media_attachments/files/116/226/185/909/034/051/original/a7268f2d1e4961d1.jpg"> <br/> 2026-03-14T06:48:46Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsqq6yp7tgxz8d0rqaef9j0dkwy6edjx7zv90tsfvq25ln6ztz46vqzypg8lu6jwpr3zc8znej9kf025e5ra8ruy8nnxjnpfaakrpx7qrqkqxm695p #MonochromeMarch #Monochrome<br/> <img src="https://mastodon.nl/system/media_attachments/files/116/220/617/466/213/226/original/15476d4ee08436f5.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-03-13T07:13:00Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsrrlzhp8h5xja34dgfn2htvsehs6la86hd6f5qz7jf2dwfkruw7nczypg8lu6jwpr3zc8znej9kf025e5ra8ruy8nnxjnpfaakrpx7qrqkqquwyjx <img src="https://mastodon.nl/system/media_attachments/files/116/214/976/056/488/949/original/4826a486cce9fbc3.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-03-12T07:18:48Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsxv9f6e8a09taw2l0536aegt76cd38vtpqasa2fy50fplm83dvwyqzypg8lu6jwpr3zc8znej9kf025e5ra8ruy8nnxjnpfaakrpx7qrqkqf2jkcc In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsx2umy8mpx9yyyn5pegjv9jve3sy6erqfsylp2nfx5pg8ypvq40zs5vlsxu'>nevent1q…lsxu</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Lovely video about going slower and not frantically chasing pictures.

But also attempts to maintain order and the lines of command. Amazingly, they wrote official documents justifying their behavior in case they would make it back to England and end up in court.

Ze bezochten o.a. Wall Street, Harvard, een groep atoomgeleerden, de Ford-fabrieken, Capitol Hill en de Walt Disney Studio&#39;s. Zij schreven er ieder een serie krantenartikelen over.<br/><br/>Hun artikelen geven een prachtig inkijkje in het Amerika van 1946. In de verzuilde pers van die tijd gaven ze ieder een heel eigen beeld van het land.<br/><br/>1/2 2024-08-13T14:39:44Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsfm535mftqhmkm03dvfumezr6l8kf7tjfr4kaczaew668627h9qnczypg8lu6jwpr3zc8znej9kf025e5ra8ruy8nnxjnpfaakrpx7qrqkqg0lpky In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs2nudhwwx376lvvk9pgnsuwucsqt3dhflza3nf0wltnf3lyfhqurs50exyg'>nevent1q…exyg</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Once again a beautiful collection, Steven.

This week it was Arrows, as proposed by <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1y23sqegkq09mzw25s2tpa5w26w7swg007qssawluqhm0etgeq65qmduw32" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Harald H. Foto</span> (<span class="italic">npub1y23…uw32</span>)</a></span> <br/><br/>Phew, arrows were much harder than circles to find. And even harder to make interesting pictures of. But I really started to have fun when I realised that arrows can have so many different shapes. Even triangles can be arrows sometimes: see the remote control. This makes arrows different from circles or squares, which are always the same shape.<br/><br/>Next weekend we&#39;ll have Squares.
