Rose in Three Quarter Time – Interview + Giveaway with Rachel McMillan

Oh, book-loving friends. I have such a treat for you today. And by treat for you, I really mean a treat for me that I’m sharing with all of you! 😉 If there is one thing in life I enjoy as much as books, it’s music. Especially the classical variety. So you can imagine how much a story featuring a conductor and a violinist in Vienna might appeal to me. As soon as I began reading this book, I knew I had to ask Rachel McMillan to share a little bit about these characters and the music that becomes part of

Top Ten Tuesday – Favourite Book Quotes

Happy Tuesday to you all! This week’s topic from That Artsy Reader Girl has result in several hours of getting lost in some of my favourite reads, because we’re discussing favourite book quotes. And if I wasn’t in the habit of highlighting things on my Kindle as I read, I probably wouldn’t even be writing this right now; I’d STILL be lost reliving some of my favourite bookish moments on the quest for quotes to share.

Weekend Book Buzz – 10/11 February 2018

Welcome to the Weekend Book Buzz! I hope your week treated you well. We’re getting back into the swing of school term around here.

And all the more reason to have a good book or three to take with me to all these extra-curricular activities!
