Welcome to Litsy!

Beautiful and completely unique book. Not at all what I was after or expected but moving and emotional. I feel like I know these women, each one remarkable in their own way. Couldn‘t recommend it enough! Review to come soon! 5/5 stars! #history #nonfiction #bookblogger #booklover #bookish #bookaddict #bibliophile #memoir #britishhistory

Do you ever look at your bookshelf of TBR books and think to yourself, “I am content. I have a wonderful collection here that I want to read. Nothing seems blasé or boring. I do not want anymore books, I just want to read these ones first.”? I ask because in my 25 (or rather 23) years of reading and collecting books I have never not wanted to buy more. Until now. I am finally content with what I have. How bizarre. #booklover #bookish #bookblogger

Oh my goodness. This book isn‘t quite what I was expecting but it‘s so wonderful and elicits so many emotions. These six women are actually superstars, from all walks of life and varying classes but all just as remarkable as each other. I want to invite them all over for tea and hear more stories of their lives. #booklover #bibliophile #bookish #bookblogger #history #nonfiction

I‘ve been super busy amusing my toddler this weekend and have only managed to read the introduction to The Century Girls, but I can already see that I am going to love this book and these six remarkable women. If you have even the slightest interest in British history then please please pick up this book. #history #nonfiction #Women #Womenshistory #britishhistory #thecenturygirls #bookblogger #booklover #bibliophile #bookish

This is my immediate TBR pile (owned books) which is slowly being added to but also slowly being gotten through. I‘ve marked off the ones I‘ve read recently or am reading now with a pink dash. I still have so many adventures to enjoy! (And a few more to arrive in the post!) See anything you‘ve read and enjoyed? #history #historicalfiction #warfiction #WWII #WWI #worldwar #toberead #currentlyreading #bookish #booklover

Picked my next read and I am super excited! This book cover gives me all the feels. It‘s so simple and beautiful and on the back cover are the faces of the lovely elderly ladies who have been interviewed in the book. Anyone have this one on their list? #history #nonfiction #britishhistory #bookblogger #booklover #bookish

The World War era book haul I made last week has arrived and although I‘m disgusted how Amazon thinks it can send “brand new” books dirty and banged up, I am over the moon with my haul! These books have all been on my radar for a while now except The Book Thief Which is one of my favourites and I needed a new copy! See anything awesome? #history #historicalfiction #WWII #worldwar #warfiction
