I am reading about a palliative care Doctors, it's today's daily deal. Relevant and moving, bit of a sore point at the minute. I've also been reading Flower Hunters: Adventurous Botanists and the Lasting Impact of Their Discoveries by Mary Gribbin and John Gribbin. And Erebus: The Story of a Ship by Michael Palin.
I'm obviously not settling into one book but I've read a few pages of each today
I've an animated film to recommend, it's good for children but the Husband and I both enjoyed it to the point of neglecting housework. We've just got it and I'd put it on to keep everyone out from underfoot to get some laundry folded. But I watched it instead so the laundry pile is still there. It was stop motion so you got to see one of the monsters being built and trying to get one of the sculptors.
