Lucky enough to get an ARC of Fiona‘s new book - stunning!
My lunch times have been transported to another time & place. Late 1800‘s colonial Australia - Flinders Ranges in particular. Now I know where our next holiday will be…
When it‘s raining outside, this is as good as it gets!

Edith Campbell Berry will go down in history as one of the smartest, funniest, most idealistic creations in literature.
I wish I could remember who recommended this little gem to me so I could thank them profusely!!!
pickI haven‘t been here for so long, I‘ve almost forgotten what to do!
Reading a lot more poetry these days, especially First Nations voices. Powerful, angry, hopeful, truth telling.
On my blog this August #MobyDickReadalong
My plan is to read a chapter of the book then listen to the matching podcast episode from the Moby Dick Big Read.

You and the tree come from a common ancestor. A billion and a half years ago, the two of you parted ways. But even now, after an immense journey in separate directions, that tree and you share a quarter of your genes.
The Overstory travelling through the Daintree #themedholidayreading
Sun and water are questions endlessly worth answering.
Exercising my right as an independent woman to enjoy my day off work doing the things I love to do.
Broadening my horizons.
Getting my weekend groove on - coffee, interesting book & my walking shoes (not in photo 😂)
That day, I actually became a normal cog in society.
Louise Gluck writes, ‘A room with a chair, a window,/ A small window, filled with the patterns light makes...the world// was whole always.‘
‘The inner west is also the only area in Sydney that grows less culturally diverse each time the Bureau Of Statistics takes its measures.‘
A new year with one month nearly done. I‘m reading more, blogging less & photography is still in limbo. Hoping to get back on track with the photography starting today.
Love Hess‘ illustrations to bits - which is really saying something - as fashion is not my thing at all !!
@DeweysReadathon #frankenfest #anzreadathon my morning coffee break with banana bread - colour coordination gone mad!
The perfect weather to start my #ccdare book for #frankenfest!
“If only I were there and she were here,” she sighed.
A run of dark coloured covers reflecting my current mood....thankfully this story is a thing of joy so far. Just what I needed.
My happy place....
Loving Andrew Miller‘s latest offering so far. But it‘s historical fiction with a twist of mystery set in England, with a nod to Napoleon, sailing & ships - what‘s not to love!
Reading my #ccspin book in style this weekend 😁
Ahoy! Colour matching my coffee & book again😂
When your lunch time read matches the teapot #iamreading #iamiamiam 😁
When it‘s cold & wet outside it‘s so nice to have a book that warms the cockles 😍
Where else would you start reading this but Kyoto! #holidayreading #injapan🇯🇵
I love it when the book you‘re travelling with becomes very real. Our train this morning continued onto Takamatsu (across the water to Shikoku. We stayed on Honshu). I kept thinking, ‘I know that name!‘
Reading Kafka again tonight made me realise why. A lot of the action in this book occurs in and around Takamatsu #smallworld #inMurakamisfootsteps
I love it when the book I travel with is a perfect fit - for my mood, the place I‘m in & for having such a lovely cover!

After all, we all live in the future, even if it‘s a future where we aren‘t to be found anywhere upon the earth.

@nsenger Thank you for the #lesmisreadalong - as you know, I‘ve never read this before, or seen the movie or show...to be in the presence of such genuine goodness & humanity is humbling. Thank you 🙏🏽 #monseigneurbienvenu #iamreading #bookstagram #bronasbooks #slowreading #frenchclassic @penguinclassics
