I really enjoyed this satirical look at a rural community at a time when social mores were changing significantly.

*Squeee!* 🫖 Look what got pulled for #Bookspin (tagged) - I‘m very excited! 🫖 And No Friend But the Mountain for #DoubleSpin - which is that much more difficult, but has been on my tbr for a few years, I think.

My bingo board may not be the prettiest, but I still enjoyed making it. And am looking forward to colouring it in almost as much as I‘m looking forward to reading the books! 😁

TheAromaofBooks Yay!!! Looks great!!! 3y

...and isn‘t this fabulous? I ended up having a tea-themed birthday. The book just has the best title ever - thank you Helen @squirrelbrain - and it‘s gorgeous!

Anyone would think I drank a lot of the stuff - these came from 3 different people 🫖

Book Mail!

Here are my three latest purchases from the #BritishLibraryWomenWriters series. I quite probably would‘ve purchased the tagged book for the title alone. 😆

valeriegeary These covers! 😍😍 4y
KVanRead Oooh, my pretties! And yes, that‘s a perfect title. 4y
rubyslippersreads These covers are quite intoxicating! 😂 4y

TNbookworm Cover love❤ 4y
Mtroiano 😍 4y
MsMelissa I love these covers! Where do you buy the books from? 4y
MsMelissa Never mind! I found them on Book Depository. It‘s so your fault that I ordered Tea is So Intoxicating and Tree of Heaven 😬 Oh, and a British Library Crime Classic - Death of a Busybody. 4y
readordierachel That title! It *is* so intoxicating 😆 4y
Ruthiella Ooh! I have Dangerous Ages in another paperback edition...not read it yet, however. 😬 4y
LeahBergen @valeriegeary @KVanRead @rubyslippersreads @TNbookworm @Mtroiano I can‘t get over how well thought-out these covers and design are (mind you, the British Library Crime Classics series is beautiful, too, so why am I surprised? 😆). (edited) 4y
LeahBergen @Book_Fiend_Melissa Correct! It‘s Book Depository! 😆 I think you‘d also really like O, the Brave Music; it‘s a charming story of a girl growing up in Yorkshire. I‘m a fan of the British Library Crime Classics series, too (but haven‘t read Death of a Busybody). 4y
LeahBergen @readordierachel Isn‘t it, though? 😂 4y
LeahBergen @Ruthiella I have a few other (unread) Rose Macaulays, too. 😆 4y
Megabooks You are bad influence!! 🤪😘 4y
Tanisha_A Woweeeee 4y
erzascarletbookgasm I saw these and put them in my BD wish list, waiting and hoping for the price to go lower. You are no help 😜 4y
Cathythoughts These are lovely.. I have 2 ( not these ones ) from when they were on sale in Waterstones.... ❤️ 4y
batsy Oooh you're such a good (bad) influence! Or is that a bad (good) influence? 😂 😍 4y
CarolynM Hard to go past that title😂 4y
Reviewsbylola Stop tempting me!!! 🤣🤣🤣 4y
