70/100 ‘waiting for the tide’ #100daysnewthings

A hot, humid day. I’m looking at cooling photos like this one from a visit to Wells-next-the Sea, North Norfolk.

There’s always a cooling breeze there. I can almost feel it. A sort of teleportation…

that’s not waiting for me—

Book Cover 3 61/100 #100daysnewthings

I accepted the challenge from Shrikaanth Krishnamurthy to post covers of 7 books that I have read! No explanation, no reviews, just the covers (just my own photo arrangement!). This is book cover for day 3 of the challenge.

Each time I post a cover I’m expected to ask 3 of my friends to take up the challenge as well. I know that this is a difficult request, as not every friend likes challenges, and even those who do, find it difficult to finish all challenges…so to make it easier for everyone, I’m suggesting here if a friend likes the idea to take it up, and tag me, so that I follow their book covers…

Book Cover 1 53/100 #100daysnewthings

I accepted the challenge from Shrikaanth K. Murthy to post covers of 7 books that I have read on Facebook! No explanation, no reviews, just the covers. Each time I post a cover I’ll ask 3 of my friends to take up the challenge as well.
This is my book cover for day 1.
I invited Angie Werren, Pat Nelson and Marion Clarke to take up the challenge.
Thank you for nominating me Shrikaanth! I’ll be posting over the next few weeks.
And as I am still reading this book, it is also something ‘new’ to me, so: 53/100 #100daysnewthings and #the100dayproject.
