One of Madeline Cullen’s happiest childhood memories is of working with her Aunt Maddie in the quaint and cozy Printed Letter Bookshop. But by the time Madeline inherits the shop nearly twenty years later, family troubles and her own bitter losses have hardened…
Happy Friday, book lovers, and welcome to First Line Friday hosted by Hoarding Books. This week I’m sharing the first line of the books that’s up next on my TBR: The Printed Letter Bookshop by Katherine Reay. It’s releasing this coming Tuesday and I can’t wait to dive in. But for now, the first line is going to have to satisfy me…
Happy Tuesday! This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic made me laugh: Books that Take Place in Another Country. Since I live in Australia, almost every book I read takes place in another country. 😄 So I’ve decided to tweak the topic a little and share ten different countries I have visited in books.

Today’s Top Ten Tuesday post should come with some kind of a health warning, because once you start, you may find yourself craving all kinds of foods, and I can’t promise all of them will be kind to your figures! Yes, the girls at The Broke and the Bookish have set a food theme for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday post, so don’t say you haven’t been warned!
I’m back to Top Ten Tuesday after a two-week hiatus! And this week’s topic from the girls at The Broke and the Bookish is one of those topics that I don’t even pretend to limit myself to a mere ten books! However, I have managed to be somewhat restrained. Limiting this list to books that are actually releasing between September and November went a long way towards that restraint! And obviously, this is actually my Spring TBR, because here in the antipodes, spring is in the air! September Read my reviews for Crown of Souls, A New Shade of Summer,
Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy! I just love looking at all the fantastic books in my future. I’ve tried to be conservative with this list, but I’ve still gone a little over ten. 😊 And it’s entirely conceivable I’ve left some out completely by accident! Click on the covers for more information!
