Looking for something vaguely festive to dip into during lunch and Trebizon never lets me down - apparently this will tell me tales of Ingrid, the Swedish Ice Queen (of course) who'll join the girls for, no doubt, hijinks... 💙📚
The cover of Into the Fourth at Trebizon, by Anne Digby, which features collaged drawings of what seems to be a young man with curly hair and too many teeth, a prancing ice dancer leaping into the air, and one of the Trebizon girls wearing a festive red and white jumper and also ice skates. I'm holding the paperback up next to some Christmas lights for fun.

In one of the Trebizon books (I think Boy Trouble), one of the characters introduces the concept of "la ronde": Person A loves Person B, B loves C, C loves D, THEREFORE D must love A.

Far more satisfying than a love chevron, especially bcoz person D is all "what? No, I don't!" BUT SHE TOTALLY DOES

Mange bøker lest, en større andel enn normalt gjenlest (rundt 50 % i 2024, jeg pleier å ligge på rundt 30 %). Det har vært et rart leseår, satser på mer energi til å lese nye-for-meg bøker i 2025.
Stats-oppsummering fra The Storygraph som viser at jeg har lest 171 bøker og 39 469 sider i 2024. Første bok var Second Term at Trebizon, siste var Rangikura av Tayi Tibble, lengste var Ron Chernows biografi om Alexander Hamilton, kortest var Serafin og Plym på nye eventyr.

I grew up reading the Chalet School, St Clare's, Malory Towers and Trebizon, and really the only notable difference is they didn't allow boys or pets. And The Worst Witch, of course, which did allow pets.

This is absolutely a book I'm extremely grateful to have read when I was 9, before the internet existed and I could be unbearable about it! I just quietly revelled in it for YEARS, and it probably has a lot to do with my winding up doing my BA in Philosophy. I still love it.

💙📚
My dry pale hand holding up the 1976 Corgi edition of Robert M. Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, with the iconic "lotus flower turning into a spanner" illustration on the cover, and the presumptuous (if, in my case, accurate), unattributed statement "THIS BOOK WILL CHANGE THE WAY YOU THINK AND FEEL ABOUT YOUR LIFE" in the bottom right hand corner. (I'm holding it up in front of a bookshelf which also contains its shelfmates, the Trebizon series by Anne Digby, some very beautiful old Agatha Christie books I should post sometime and a 2007 postcard by artist Rachel Ortas featuring a cute but alarmed blue rabbit-like creature surrounded by the words Ai! Ai! Ai! Ai!
