I’ve moved from my Bridgerton hype to Little Women with a stack of retellings… (so do we count retellings of classic novels as a genre? Because if so, it’s one of my favourites!)
Back home from home (don’t know if that will ever not be confusing!) and enjoying tea and planning with this essential purchase from @nt_lymepark ☕️ welcome to Savannah Mr Darcy!
It’s book review time and today I’m super excited to be sharing my review as part of the blog tour of @authornataliejenner’s new novel “Bloomsbury Girls”!
A lot of spring pink 🌸🌷💐🌺🪷
A lovely day on the tail of Inspector Barnaby (yes, we love Midsomer Murders) in Oxfordshire with the even lovelier @theramblingbachelor. Peak wisteria, cake and antiques browsing, and book buying, also included for good measure. 🌸☕️ (I’m sure Inspector Barnaby loves Bryan Adams too…)
Hi I’m admiring the lake that Colin Firth jumped in but didn’t actually jump in 27 years ago. Key historical landmark.
