Velvetfur Ooohhh lots of fab Kate goodies! I've always loved her image and the way she presents herself, I must listen to more of her music, I only know the famous songs from over the years... Thanks for the inspiration! Very pretty book covers btw 😊 6y

Cathythoughts She is amazing 👍🏻 6y

Cinfhen So, I just stalked your TBR on Litsy...is it up to date!??I know somebody has a birthday soon & im happy to share some books I own.... (edited) 6y

TrishB @matthieumcintosh true enough 😁 6y

TrishB @Velvetfur start with Hounds of Love.....the second side (obviously I was brought up with vinyl) is the best side of her songs (and up there with any of the best) ever... 6y

TrishB @Cathythoughts she is ❤️ 6y

TrishB @Cinfhen it actually is! I updated due to the poetry swap I‘m in. ❤️ 6y

Velvetfur @TrishB I was brought up with vinyl too, I know what you mean! I remember that album title, it's one of her most famous ones I presume, thanks for the recommendation! 😀 6y

Cinfhen Excellent 😘 6y

batsy Who doesn't, to be honest? 😁💜 Love this selection! 6y

How to Raise Monarch Butterflies: A Step-by-step Guide for Kids | Carol Pasternak

So this summer I had a #fascination(obsession ?) with raising Monarch Butterflies. This book was a great resource and I highly recommend it if you are interested in this project. I successfully raised and released 17 butterflies from eggs I found in my garden. The last 7 were tagged and hopefully heading to Mexico!

Year of Living Danishly: Uncovering the Secrets of the World's Happiest Country | Helen Russell

pick

When her husband gets a job with Lego, journalist Helen leaves her London job to accompany him to Jutland and freelance while investigating what it is that makes Denmark the happiest country in the world. This book is basically a series of lifestyle pieces on life in Denmark tied together with the story of the couple's first year in their new country. #Fascination would describe how I've felt about reading it while in Denmark. #SeptemberDanes

Cinfhen, Kalalalatja

Kalalalatja I have thought about picking this up, mostly to see what a Denmark looks like from an outside perspective 👍 6y

Cinfhen Fun!! 6y

Cathythoughts You lucky duck ! I can‘t wait to go there 😍 6y
