G’day, booklovers! This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic from That Artsy Reader Girl is technically Books to Pull You Out of a Reading Slump. To be honest, I don’t have a lot of experience with reading slumps. 😊 Bookhangovers? Yes. But that’s not quite the same thing…
Happy Wednesday, word nerds! A few months ago, I did a Word Nerd post about irony. As I explained then, I’m fascinated by different types of humour—partly because I like to be able to describe humour accurately in my reviews, but also just because it’s a fun subject! Well, last week I discovered a new book that had me giggling out loud. Frequently. In fact, my eldest daughter kept asking me to explain what was going on because she wanted to share in the fun. I’ll be reviewing it as part of a Fast Five Review Roundup tomorrow, but once again
Fellow book lovers, I am very excited to have my ‘frind across the dutch’ with me today (that’s my best Kiwi-ese approximation of ‘friend across the ditch’ 😂). Kara Isaac is practically my neighbour, with only a small stretch of water between me on the east coast of Australia and her in New Zealand, and since I totally gushed all over her latest release (if you missed that, you can read it here), I thought it would be fun to have a chat.
