Response: Hello, as Czech translation it's long ^โ _โ ^
Response: I usually unhaul book when I don't feel interested in the characters and their stories. I picked up a lot of books for various challenges, bookclubs and so on and realized I don't feel like continuing reading it anymore, so I unhaul. Most of the unhauling this time was YA series I started in 2022 or 2023.
Response: Hello Cindi! I didn't want to spoil things if you had not read the Lost Hero (and other books in the series) - I still have hope now when I know Percy is just away in the other camp :) I think I will read more books from Dresden Files. Sometimes I am so full of female main protagonists, so it's refreshing to follow a man. With his males issues (written by a male author, no less! Because let's be honest, some of the male characters written by female authors can be so unrealistic). / Happy reading!
Response: Thank you for rating! Yes, I have enjoyed my trip to Egypt. Although I sun-burned myself, haha!
Response: Thank you for rating! My trip in Egypt was amazing! Although I sun-burned. I loved the catacombs Kom el-ล okafa, it was an interesting place. Fortress Qaitbay could be my number one if it was not just bare walls - all the interior items were moved to citadel in Cairo, because the turists were stealing it :(
Response: Hello, I have not watched the TV show, so I can't say.
Response: Thank you for the โค๏ธ --- yes, I enjoyed Princess Bride. Mind you, I was a bit confused who the author is (with all the notes and so). Although it's not the best of my read, it's a good story.
Response: It would be my pleasure!
Response: Is there a TV show? --- I quite like the first book. It's the typical male hero story: there is danger, a few setbacks, hero almost dies (once, twice... many times) and at the end he win. Half-dead. --- I will see what other books will bring.
Response: Hello, some of them are really good, some enjoyable and some are a bit bland. I didn't like the #7 about Francesca too much.
Response: Yes and in spite of my goal of not adding, I am happily adding even this month (face-palm)!
Response: Hello Cindi, right now I am reading book 4 of Percy Jackson, so I would say I will finish the series soon (I am so proud! Because I am reaaaaly slow on finishing series :)
Soon I will send your way email with some Czech authors :)
Response: Yes! I got inspired by your writing about it and bought it when I saw it in a bookshop :) Thanks for the tip!
Response: Hello Betty, thank you for letting me know. I guess strikes of postal workers are everywhere :) Happy swapping.
Response: Thank you for โค๏ธ I wanted the book titles to be readable, but didn't want to print the whole letter, so... the stamps were the best option.
Response: Hello Allison, I am glad you like it - it's my first attempt and I was a bit apprehensive, if I made it "right". Anyway, there is no way, you would ruin it! I look forward to see your art, when it return to me (one day - hopefully!)
Response: Yeeess! They made it! Thank you for letting me know and for hosting this swap!
Response: Thank you for the heart and nice words! I plan to participate in August, too. I will have to start early, to finish in time and have some time to ponder the craft part ^_^
Response: Hello Monty! I am glad the letter arrived safely. You are welcome to write back anytime ^_^
Response: Thank you for rating. I totally get it, I am nervous from washi, too. Glad you like it!
Response: Thank you for a recommendation. I read a review of the book and it seems promising!
Response: I am glad you like it. It was my first time making zine, too, so I wasn't sure how to approach it :)
Response: You can view the czech series here: https://www.goodreads.com/series/253070-kouzeln-atlas-putov-n-asem
Thanks for the tip, I will start with The Girl Who Fell, then :)
Response: Yes, I have Shogun as a Czech translation from 2009 - it's one thick book of around 1.000 pages. I re-read it recently, because I watched the series from 1980 and needed to compare with the original ^_^
Response: So glad it made it! Stay healthy and well, too!
