Wow! That’s quite diverse! I envy you the National Geographics. I used to have a slew of them when I was a teenager and I pulled out all the maps and covered every surface in my bedroom – including the ceiling.

Excellent! Another real variety of choices. Have you read C.S. Lewis’s “The Great Divorce”? It’s a favourite of mine.

I have not read that one. I’ll have to check it out. I do like Surprised by Joy, and The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is a longtime favorite.

I’ve got a kindle, so nothing stacked up. But I’m about halfway thru the Hercule Poirot series by Agatha Christie. I started that after getting thru book 10 in James Patterson’s Women’s Murder Club series…

With the occasional Thich Nhat Hahn thrown in for good measure. 😉

I love Poirot! We were thrilled recently to discover that Netflix just put every season and episode on their roster. Working our way through from the beginning.
I read many of the books in my youth. Gosh! I sound and old as Miss Marple!

We’ve been debating getting rid of Amazon prime – not much movie selection – and getting Netflix… This may seal the deal. Poirot isn’t available for free on Amazon… And you don’t sound old. It sounds like you have really good taste in books and TV shows. 😉

Yeah. I’m not THAT old. ha ha. Just 54, but I feel much less most days. Mentally, I’m still in my 30s.
Netflix Canada can be a pain, and I hate the way it displays stuff you’re not interested in and you can’t get rid of it, but even so, we manage to find enough to keep us satisfied.

That blasted auto- correct is at it again! Who is Thich Nhat Han, by the way? (A-C didn’t like that!)

P.S. Got loads stacked on my Kindle too.
