Weekend Book Buzz – 15/16 December 2018

Welcome to the Weekend Book Buzz! It’s been a busy week here, including a significant birthday for yours truly! Hence you may have noticed slightly less activity around here this week.

And I’m busy working on something that I hope will be ready for you by 1 January 2019. How’s that for a teaser?! What’s keeping you busy as Christmas draws closer?

Weekend Book Buzz – 8/9 December 2018

Welcome to the Weekend Book Buzz! You know it’s nearly the end of the year when the ballet concert is all over for another year. And guess what? Our ballet concert was yesterday.

Three ballet girls, seven costumes, five hours rehearsing… I think we all know who’s going to sleep well tonight! Perhaps your weekend was a little more relaxing!

Weekend Book Buzz – 17/18 November 2018

Welcome to the Weekend Book Buzz! The end of the year seems to be closing in very quickly, doesn’t it? It does to me, anyway! It doesn’t help that the days where we are just north of Sydney, Australia, are becoming warm and sunny and it’s beginning to feel like summer holidays. The kids are itching to go outside and play rather than do their school work, and there’s a part of me that doesn’t blame them! But we have a few weeks of school left yet, and plenty more bookish news to come for the year, so let’s get
