Caught at the Old Gang meetup, thank you. These wee Book Trust ones are usually worth a read.

The first story in this, Squeak by Linda McLeod, was great. It made me laugh out loud as the mother interrupted her prayers with various bits of gossip.

Sadly the rest of the collection was a bit of a disappointment. It felt heavy-handed and very same-y at times. Frankly, I got sick and tired of reading the word 'blether' again and again! I craved a bit more subtlety and variety with the theme. Reading again and again how nice it is to have a blether (there we go - I've started it too now!) was just too predictable in a collection like this. Where were the blethers the missed the mark? The blethers that encouraged discrimination and prejudice? The blethers that never happened at all? Etc, etc.

Released 2 yrs ago (4/14/2021 UTC) at Little Free Library - Dalry Place in Edinburgh, Scotland United Kingdom

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

Had a lovely walk in the sunshine up to Dalry. Surprised to see so much room on the shelves this time. The Little Library was pretty packed a few days ago. I wonder where the missing books have travelled to since?

If you are new to bookcrossing - welcome and congratulations for finding a book! Please leave a journal entry to let me and any other readers know where it has gone and what you thought of it.
