Thank you for a lovely season of Harmony Reads, I will miss it! I have Kim to thank for bringing Agatha Christie back into my life (hadn't read her books in at least 15 yrs) but I can't fault you for needing a break. My reading tends to slow down in the warmer months too and a hobby should never feel like a chore. Perhaps harmony reads can return in the cooler months as a small segment of the knitting podcast where only one book is discussed a week rotating who picks it between the 3 of you so it's not too much of a burden, or something to the like to keep it simple.

I get it. Summer is outside Time, for me, gardening and knitting outside. It is when the cooling comes and hibernating season approaches, that I turn to reading again. This has been enlightening and fun. You are all 3 such great company!!!❤

I certainly understand you ladies needing some time to take care of busy lives. I just want to say how much I enjoy Harmony Reads. Many vlogs include a section about what they are reading. Mostly I end when that starts. Mostly because the genre of books and movies are just not my cup of tea. But you have been right up my alley. I have watched every episode. Have a good summer and I do hope you can find time to return. In the meantime I will continue to enjoy the regular Fleece and Harmony episodes.

My comment connects to your remarks around 17:00. Hubs and I have been watching clips from The Best of Groucho on KZfaq. He had a tv show (mid '50s) called You Bet Your Life. PLEASE look it up if you want a shock. He actually asks the ladies their ages, comments on their figures if they are sexy looking, AND makes fun of them if they are heavy. He also asked a muscular looking guy to take his shirt off. He also blows his stinky cigar smoke straight into the contestants' faces throughout the show. Aaah, the good ole days...?? Very often I catch myself thinking in blocks of 30 years. How in the heck am I old enough to do that?!

I absolutely loved reading the Birth House. I was on bed rest with my first child learning to knit and immersing myself in stories. I will miss your reading podcasts because you have shared so many interesting books that I would not have tried. Your recommendations were great and I am so thankful for the suggestions and introduction to new Canadian writers:

It’s good to heed your energy, and to take a break! Would you consider having Harmony Reads be shorter, and be a chapter in the knitting podcast? Since you already do chapters, people could skip if they aren’t interested in books. I have really enjoyed your book talks, and have read or added books to my TBR based upon your discussions. Happy summer reading!

I'm so like Simone with the romance part. I'm watching a FBI TV series at the moment, which would be good if the school kid "getting together" wasn't in it. I'm the same with books, skim through it.

Yes - the "getting together" in those shows is superfluous in this shows. Just give us the suspense and solve the crime!
