I've owned this book since the day it came out. Time to actually read it.

#newbooksmell #notsonewnow

Finished this book yesterfay and thoroughly enjoyed it. It took me a while to read but when i picked it up again a couple of days ago I got through it quickly

I had no idea about the history of that area so it was made me grateful to be living in this time and place. The strength of the characters was admirable and Lisa See is a great storyteller as always

New ebook read!!

It's new book time!! I've finished all the books I was reading/listening to so it's a clean slate

This is the #audiobook I am listening to. I've heard so many good things about it so I'm looking forward to it!!

Our last couple of hours in rainy Vanuatu and I am just starting this book by Michelle Montebello

#aussieauthors #awwc

Today is relaxation day on our honeymoon both because that was the plan and because of the weather. I'm ahead of schedule on my readaling book so taking the opportunity to read this one instead

Ran off to paradise (also known as Vanuatu) and got married a couple of days ago.....as you do.

Reading this for a Facebook readalong but really struggling to not read ahead of the schedule

#readalong

I was intending to read this while on my honeymoon but it was so good that I finished it on the plane!!

When your beloved picks you up from the hairdresser and presents you with the book you have been talking about buying

#lovehim #aussieauthors #awwc #soontobemyhusband

Started listening to the on the basis that a Facebook friend said it made her cry in public

Enjoying it so far although I find the short choppy chapters a bit distracting on audio

#currentlisten #audiobook

Now for something completely different I'm going to read a book book rather than an audiobook or a ebook. Been years since I read one of this author's books but not because I don't normally love them!! Just because I haven't

Early days yet but it is nice to be back in this world #audio

I started reading this because I wanted a change of pace and it is definitely that, but I'm not sure I'm enjoying it. Lots of reasons I should like it (pkus sized heroine is just one)and yet....

This is one of my favourite places to visit at the best of times but I do enjoy seeing what they do during White Night. They use the already spectacular space as a canvas. Amazing

I wouldn't mind visiting the village by the lake in Paradise.

I didn't think I was going to have a book for the train prompt for #letstravelaugust but as I walked past the little lending library at work this book caught my eye.

@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @OriginalCyn620

I was very happy to learn recently that there is going to be a new Black Jewels book next year

#fantasy #letstravelaugust @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @OriginalCyn620

Finding a book for the prompt of United kingdom was never going to be an issue given my love of historical fiction. The problem was always going to be which one to choose. In the end I picked this book because it us partially set in Sheffield which is where I lived in the late 90s for four years

#letstravelaugust @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @OriginalCyn620

I interrupt my baking to bring you my #letstravelaugust with a very non baking book

Earlier this week Paullina Simons was in town for an event with Heather Morris so it seems fitting to post their books so closely together even though I didn't go to the event. I don't recall reading many books set in Poland that aren't about WWII.

@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @OriginalCyn620

Back in the day I was a massive fan of Paullina Simons especially of these two books! The last couple of books I read were underwhelming but these will always have a place in my heart #letstravelaugust @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @OriginalCyn620

I was sure I had a copy of this book. I could find other books by her but not this one! I loved this book when I read it a few years ago.

@originalcyn620 #aussieauthors

I swore that I had returned this book to the library two years ago!! But maybe it's just that I needed to read it now considering that I am getting married soon #whoops #sorrylibrarian #willreturnitsoon #ipromise

I got a bit of a surprise when i started listening to the audio version of this book. It's got the same narrator as The Alice Network which i only finished recently
#currentlisten #audio

This is the last book I read that was partially set in a bookstore. In this case it was a store which specialised in rare editions of books. And the connection to the Lake District and other parts of the English countryside

I've been on a couple of cruises in the last few years. The first was to the south Pacific (On the ship pictured above on the morning we set sail) which was a similar cruise to the one in the tagged book. The second cruise was a few months ago in the Carribean #letstravelaugust #aussieauthors #awwc
@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @OriginalCyn620

Read this while we were on safari in South Africa. Technically we were not camping but rather stayed in a game lodge but still

@OriginalCyn620 @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks #letstravelaugust

Spending Saturday afternoon just taking any opportunity to listen to this book!!

#currentlisten #audio #awwc #obsessed

It's not a New York that I want to visit but a version of the city did feature in this book

#letstravelaugust @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @OriginalCyn620

Once upon a time I used to have unbreakable rules when it came to books. One of those was about always reading series in order. Looks like all the rules are being broken in the interests of just managing to read anything. #romance #unusualbehaviour

Revisiting one of my favourite Marchetta books in anticipation of reading her latest #audiobook #aussieauthors #awwc

Keeping me company at the theme patk

This morning's plane read #weekendescape #justgothome #aussieauthors #awwc

Many many years ago I joined an online forum for Sara Donati's books. I met a group of women that I am still good online friends with today. We live in different parts of the world but I see some of them every couple of years. This weekend we are in New Orleans. Yesterday we visited two of the houses that Sara Donati isited while she was researching for the books

This is my plane reading. Also might be the first book I read in a day for forever. And that's not just because I am on a plane. It's also because I am enjoying it a lot!!

I feel like I am very late to the party on this one!! #audiobook

My time as the bookpusher is coming to an end at this workplace. Hopefully there will be willing victims at the next one!!

I am very much looking forward to Melina Marchetta's new book but it has been a while since I spent time with the characters so I am going back to the beginning

When you have some time to kill so you have to buy a book to read.

Waiting for the free concert to start at the local pop up park.
