Hello!
I hope everyone is having a good weekend so far. I have had a lovely day of reading today which is just what I needed.
I received another book as a birthday present this week and it is quite intriguing as it is by an author I have never come across before.
One Day by David Nicholls
This isn’t my usual choice of book but I am looking forward to reading it and discovering a new author.

Hello!
I hope everyone is having a good weekend so far. I’ve managed some reading today which has been lovely. I had two books arrive this week that I had preordered ages ago.
Medusa by Rosie Hewlett – I’m really excited to read this version of Medusa’s story. I always find the story of Medusa a hard story to read because she was a very wronged woman.
The Stolen Crown by Tracy Borman – I am a huge fan of Tracy Borman and can’t wait to read her latest book.

Hello!
This week has involved a lot of book shopping and a preordered book arriving. I can’t wait to get stuck into reading them all. I went to my favourite bookshops in Bath this week and had one delivery from Waterstones.
Persephone Books
I’m not going to do pictures of these books because they all have the same cover and are never very clear in the pictures. My dream is to own the complete set of Persephone Books and one day read them all.
Mariana by Monica Dickens
Someone at a Distance by Dorothy Whipple
Fidelity by Susan Glaspell
Mr B’s Emporium
I’ve seen some interesting reviews of the Great Eastern Hotel by Ruchir Joshi so I thought I would purchase it and give it a read. The book is huge so it will take me a while.
Unfortunately She Was A Nymphomaniac by Joan Smith looks like a very different history of Rome’s Imperial women.
Toppings and Company Booksellers of Bath
I always try and add another Alison Weir book to my collection and I am thoroughly looking forward to reading Elizabeth The Queen because Elizabeth is my favourite monarch.
Phoenicia Rogerson is a new author for me but I am looking forward to reading her version of Aphrodite.
She Played and Sang by Gillian Dooley looks like a fascinating read about Jane Austen. As a musician myself I am looking forward to reading about Austen’s love of music.
Waterstones
This was my preordered book. R. F. Kuang is a bit of an auto buy author for me so I am very excited to read her new book.

Happy Weekend Everyone!
This week I went to visit Ironbridge so that obviously meant a visit to Ironbridge Bookshop. The bookshop has recently extended and I was very excited to see how they had changed the shop. I absolutely loved the new layout and loved the extra space in the shop. I obviously bought myself a few books whilst there.
New Books
A Brief Guide to the Greek Myths by Stephen Kershaw
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum
Tender is the Night by F. Scott Fitzgerald
I’m very excited to read these books. I have only read The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald so I’m looking forward to reading more of his work.

Hello!
I hope everyone is having a good weekend so far. I have been looking at Kindle offers to stock up my Kindle ready for my holiday next month. I haven’t found many that appeal to me yet but I will keep looking. Here is what I have gone for so far.
I have always been a fan of Dan Jones so I am looking forward to reading his book on the Plantagenets. I haven’t done much historical reading this year so I am looking forward to getting back into it.

I am just over half way through the first book of this series and I can’t put it down so I really wanted the next book ready to read.
