Beautiful temps of 27-28℃ are predicted so hopefully a lot of my reading time will be outside in the fresh air and sunshine.
My family have been rewatching all the Game of Thrones episodes in the lead up to the final season start on the 14th April (although it will be lunch time the 15th April in Australia so no social media spoilers until our Monday night when we all get home from work to watch it together okay!)
The one flaw in our plan is that we still have 12 episodes to go!!
Saturday evening/night we plan to binge watch 3-4 episodes.
There will then be a lot of pressure on me to abandon my readathon on Sunday night to do another 1 or 2 before bed.
Finished off the final episode of season 6 of GoT

Discussed GoT theories with Mr Books.
Who is Tyrion’s dad? Which Targaryen is Jon’s dad?
Can you turn white walkers (esp a white dragon) back like Uncle Benji was returned by the Children of the Forest? But who would want Benjen’s undead, inbetween kind of life anyway?
What role has Gendry still to play in all of this?
Lots of queens now seem to be on the throne or leading armies (Daenerys, Cersei, Sansa, Yara Greyjoy, Olenna Tyrell, Ellaria Sand…but still no peace and harmony in sight).

Morning walk, coffee stop and pokemon raids (finally caught my first absol and new forme giratina!)

I'm happy to see you here today/tonight, Bron. I'm hoping to make a dent in some books I've started but haven't finished. I'm especially interested in hearing what you think about the Michelle Obama book.

Glad to see you are playing along this time! I have been finishing up books that have been part-way-read as well. Seems like a good read-a-thon plan.
