I have to finish reading this book today

In time for a discussion this evening. 90 pages to go. It's going to be tight. Between now and then I also have to make some plum and almond cupcakes for dessert (goes with the book discussion), pick up the kids from school, deal with a few toddler toilet trips and feed the baby at least twice.

It is an excellent book though. I'm very keen to get to the end to see what happens.

I talked to my friend, Jonathan's Mum, this morning. His funeral is tomorrow morning. She is doing as well as can be expected, considering what she has been through this week. Still praying for strength for their whole family.

Off to keep reading over lunch while both kids are still asleep...
