It’s been a busy weekend for me this weekend, with a flying visit (literally and figuratively!) to Melbourne to see TWO of my favourite groups in concert together. If you’re a fan of a cappella vocal music and you’ve never heard of Australian vocal group The Idea of North, or Swedish vocal group The Real Group, then you need to fix that pronto!
But that’s probably not why you’re here, and there’s plenty of bookish news to share too, so let’s get down to business, eh?

If you have any bookish news you would like to see in future editions of the Weekend Book Buzz, I’d love to hear from you!
Oh cool! I grew up in an acapella tradition! Love to hear it!
There’s something special about it, isn’t there? 🙂
Love the weekend update! Once the the beginning of the school-year chaos settles (almost there…), I’ll be able to check in more often. In the meantime, I appreciate being able to catch up on everything in one sitting. Thank you!
Oh, yes. The beginning of the year chaos. We’re closer to the end of our school year now. Glad you enjoy the updates! 🙂
