'More money than sense,' was one of the sayings my Aunt that brought me up often said! And the other night I heard her saying just that to me.
This is our present book club read, I decided to down load a sample onto my kindle to see if I liked it. I didn't read the previous month's book, called 'The Durrells in Corfu', I didn't take to the a TV series and I didn't like the book either, so for once didn't read book club choice.
So I thought I'd check this new book on my kindle ..it was reading nicely and decided I'd read the book in the morning and I settled down to sleep and was asleep in no time. However, at just after 3:00 am, I was in the wide awake club, so picked up my kindle to read and carried on reading the Sample... then I got to the end of it, and it was so easy to press 'buy this book' from my comfy warm bed. And yes that's when I heard my Aunty Glad's voice saying...more money than sense! I am enjoying the book!

I loved this book! Catriona
Yes, those wise words from our elders echo in our heads at times don't they. Sometimes it's good to override them, just to let them know who's boss ... I think the wee small hours of the morning are just one of those times. I hope you continue to enjoy your book. xx
I loved that book! And I've enjoyed other books by her. I often download a sample of a book to see if I'm going to want to read it.
I remember reading Gerald Durrell's My Family and Other Animals. I thought it was hilarious but I was a child. Perhaps that's the market he was aiming for.
