Africa24 - 2021/2024 - Reading Challenge

Znając siebie i własne możliwości postanowiłam około miesiąc temu zacząć moje małe wyzwanie. W 2021 roku przeczytam 24 książki napisane przez pisarzy pochodzących z najróżniejszych krajów na kontynecie Afrykańskim. Do wyboru jest wiele, choć czasem ciężko znaleźć pozycje, które mogą mnie zainteresować.

Niestety wiele z tych książek porusza ciężkie tematy - życie w Afryce nigdy nie było najłatwiejsze - od czasu do czasu zrobię sobie przerwę. To, co przeczytam pomiędzy, również wpiszę na tą listę zaznaczając, że to przerywniki. Dzięki temu pod koniec roku łatwiej zobaczę, ile udało mi się przeczytać podczas panoszącego się C-19. Pozycje czytam po angielsku, włosku i polsku - pozostawię tytuły w języku oryginalnym lub takim, w którym przebrnęłam przez powieść. W nawiasie podam kraj pochodzenia autora.

OUAT 1.05 Rewatch

Getting a little behind, so let’s go...

Punch and Judy. How wholesome. Baby Jiminy, the pickpocket. Not so wholesome. How that guy with the bag didn’t feel him cutting his bag open, I’ll never know. He wasn’t exactly very gentle about it.

Helena Bonham Carter, is that you?

Good is weak. Love is weakness. I’m sensing a theme...

Are there crickets in Maine? Now I’m gonna have to look that up. *looks it up* There are apparently 15 species of katydid/cricket/grasshopper found in Maine. So there you go, kids, your entomological fact of the day!

The deputy uniform. Well, Emma does have a point, seeing as how Graham doesn’t wear a normal sheriff’s uniform. It’s clearly not a town standard operating procedure for them to wear them.

I feel the earth...move...under my feet

If there’s one thing Emma's good at, it’s rolling her eyes.

Oops, Regina, you’re forgetting how to people again.

“We steal from them, and they steal from someone else. It’s called an economy.” Ah yes, Trump’s America, in a nutshell.

Poor Archie

MM, stop flirting with the married dude.

Yum, s’mores.

So...I wonder how many married guys Emma has gotten involved with.

Baby Jared trying to do mad. So cute.

Creak. Creak. Creak. That’s not creepy at all.

“What will become of them?” Oh, they’ll just sit around at Rumple’s place forever and the camera will pan across them now and again.

No, Pongo! Don’t eat the chocolate!

Oh look. A piece of glass.

It doesn’t look like you really need that match, Archie.

Hello, “Young person” who looks a bit like Rufus Sewell.

In what world does an actual honest man go around calling himself an honest man?

Bam, creepy dolls.

How does the kid automatically know it was Jiminy who dollified his parents?

“There’s something shiny down there.” Henry is apparently a magpie...or a dragon.

Putting Ruby in charge of Pongo. A little on the nose.

That face. The lip wiggle. Goddamn it Lana.

Geppetto suggests explosives. Because that’s safe.

Boom. Impressive.....but ineffectual. Good job.

MM seems so very concerned about “that thing that happened at the mine.” *snort*

I just met you and this sounds crazy...but here’s my number. Call me, maybe?

Kathryn was so nice.

“Mary Margaret!” The smile doesn’t reach her eyes.

Bad editing.

“It’s Archie's dog! He’s found something! What is it?” Timmy fell down the damn well again, obvs.

Archie, that’s a really fake looking head wound.

This is a really good talk though. I love that the truest believer helped Jiminy Cricket believe.

Vintage eye sex. Yes, good.

Poor worried Mayor.

Really bad CGI.

Thank God that’s a really sturdy umbrella. But...how do you hang onto an umbrella like that?

Jiminy/Geppetto bromance. Here for it.

His threat is kinda bullshit though.

Aww, pinto horsies. They’re pretty.

Hi, Shady Blue. “I cannot bring back the boy’s parents.” What CAN you do, Blue? Doesn't seem like much....except manipulation. And turning people into insects.

A wild Gold appears. Just so we can see that he has the creepy dolls.

Everyone’s standing around drinking liquor While Regina is off being shady with a piece of glass. Because that doesn’t seem contrived at all.

Dun dun dunnnnn. Gotta make sure all the pieces of the coffin are there, don’tcha know?
