Currently reading: Sound Within Sound by Kate Molleson 📚🎵
I haven’t been able to concentrate on any reading over the last few weeks due to the major stuff going on in my life but I seem to be settling down a bit now. I have a pile of music-related books to get through.
Finished reading: The Sound of Being Human by Jude Rogers 📚
Trying to make the best of the first decent summer day here. A heatwave is heading for the UK according to the forecasts but, as the old joke goes, “that’s except for viewers of BBC Scotland”.
