Lol. <br /><br />I read the book and loved it, and while the tv series deviates a bit, I think it is excellent. So scary!<br /><br />I really liked the Daughter of Smoke and Bone series - especially the short novella that went with it, Night of Cake and Puppets. :) It is not based on the Pippi Longstocking books, but the author references Lindgren a few times. I never knew she had written other books, other than the Pippi books.Erin @ Quixotic Magpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10528275471104279266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7525935409718931244.post-77324993101585437122017-05-16T17:40:20.468-07:002017-05-16T17:40:20.468-07:00Ooo it is so good!

It feels like a fallish read to me. Lol.<br /><br />I want to read the books! I am having a hard time finding them at the library, I think I will have to break down and buy them. I love love love the tv series. :)Erin @ Quixotic Magpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10528275471104279266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7525935409718931244.post-18228239339180277442017-05-16T14:29:15.976-07:002017-05-16T14:29:15.976-07:00Glad you had a good weekend and hubby is home a lo...Glad you had a good weekend and hubby is home a lot more now :)<br /><br />I haven't been watching very much tv at all, but am always open to new Netflix suggestions. I did read The Handmaid's Tale long, long ago, so maybe I'll start that one. <br /><br />My daughter suggested I try a Laini Taylor book so I was thinking of that new one, I don't know. Is the Ingrid Winter book based on the author of Pippi Longstocking (Lindgren)? Now you have me curious... my elder daughter loved the Pippi movie and the books when she was young.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7525935409718931244.post-75033117477347764052017-05-16T11:49:00.131-07:002017-05-16T11:49:00.131-07:00I'm glad you had a great Mama's Day.

I gave some cherries away yesterday and today; I was honestly surprised at what big smiles I got from the recipients! I'm glad my act of kindness brought some extra sunshine into their day.
