Did not plan to, but I got a bit of #reading done this weekend.

1) "Whan sehu's ready, A'll tak her oot, an we'll walk the path again."
#Scotland

2) "Pritschers Kiefer spannte sich. Jetzt begann das eigentliche Spiel."
[Pritscher's jaw clenched. Now the real game began.]
#ScienceFiction

3) Sophie new he was just playing for sympathy.
#Fantasy

#Leughadh #Läsa

Not for me* for #Januread, but I just finished the "Witcher of Salem" heptalogy (Wolfgang Hohlbein, abridged, read by Jürgen Hoppe). #Lesen

And my favourite ones are probably the readings of #Murakami 's
Dance, Dance, Dance (Rupert Degas) and
#Hardboiled Wonderland und das Ende der Welt (David Nathan).

"The hissing of the oxygen was putting him off to sleep..."

"'Aa showed him how tae catch snowflakes in yur haun and watch them melt.'"

Preparing for #Januread, reading every day in January:
https://www.scottishbooktrust.com/reading-and-stories/januread

Thought of some rules:

1) Read (or read to someone) for 15min uninterrupted.

2) Since I read a lot for work: It has to be leisure reading or purely curiosity driven.

3) Since I read a lot on screens: It needs to be a physical book.

Anything to add?

A' leughadh leabhar Beurla suidhichte ann an Gretna, Alba. Chleachd an sgrìobhadair faclan "bhon chànan Ceilteach, no Gàidhlig mar a thuirt iad na làithean seo" ach 's e faclan Gàidhlig na h-Èireann a th' annta.

Tha e gam fhàgail mì-thoilichte.

Tha an ùghdair i fhèin a' fuireach an an Gretna (às Manchester). Direach... dèan nas fheàrr!

#Leughadh #Gàidhlig

Chan eil mi air leughadh anns a Gàidhlig airson grèis. Tha feum agam air faclair fhathast agus tha sin ceart gu leòr. Tha e beagan a' sàrachadh airson tha e a' toirt cho fada a crìoch a chuir air.
