Any other thoughts, comments or questions on the third section?

Today is the two year anniversary of losing Oliver. I found it comforting to be involved in the discussion group since he was right next to me all those years. He really enjoyed sitting in my lap as I read. I'm currently in my back yard where I can see his little memory stone. His ashes are buried beneath it so in the future someone won't think we buried any dead bodies back here......... Yet.

Stanley is making strides in being a reading dog but at 1 and 1/2 is still too interested in chasing birds right now.

I am totally enjoying this group discussion. Its really more fun doing a book this. I am glad my usually packed schedule allow me to be able to do this. And as always Andrew your questions bring the material alive. Bravo my friend. Bravo!!

>2 Olivermagnus: How time flies, how can it possibly be two years. I think we should all head to the boat to commemorate his memory. ❤️ Thinking of you and Oliver.

Hint to Stanley, books are so much more interesting than birds.

Thanks >3 ColinMichaelFelix: I agree totally, it really brings books more alive, and makes you think more in-depth about plots, suspects, etc…

>2 Olivermagnus: Two years, how can that be? It’s gone so quickly, Lynda.

Fond memories of the little guy… Woof, woof, my little chum.

>2 Olivermagnus: oh my! It doesn’t seem that long! I never met him in person, but feel his loss. Thinking of you both.

>3 ColinMichaelFelix:. Nice to have you with us. I completely agree with your sentiments. These add so much to my enjoyment of the book and Andrew is an awesome Question Master.

Oh, Lynda! Poor Oliver, and thank you for bringing the remembrance to this group.

And agreeing on >7 bluebird_: Andrew being an awesome Question Master! Reading a book in a group and going back to answer questions is a great way to understand it. And see what others have to say about difference characters, plotlines, etc.
