Following on from last week, Esther has challenged everyone to write a poem, limerick, story etc about books. I read that while up a Volcano .. and this came about as we were coming down from Mount Teide on the tour bus! I’m now back at the hotel with honey rum and those hairpin bends are a figment of my imagination. Tomorrow I’m off to see whales and dolphins!
If asked for my favourite book
I’ll give you a dark, dirty look
I’m truly contrary
I’ll take the library
I’m badass and don’t give a Nook.
A kindles a much better deal
The books are really a steal
I hide stories I buy on it
‘im indoors can’t go apesh*t
It’s my version of ‘keeping it real’
It started off as a poem, but the ending sounded like a rap.
A fun read.

I think it was fear on those hairpin bends! It was rhyming or praying!

Awesome! 👏 which kindle do you have? I’m thinking of upgrading for my birthday this year….currently I have the paper white.

I still have a paperwhite for my Amazon.co.uk books and I also have a Samsung tablet with the Kindle app for my US account. I had a kindle fire and found it very inferior to a tablet so this is best for me.

I’m glad you made it round the mountain. How was the Loro parque? I love it, especially the penguin enclosure which is fascinating.
