    I broke again and bought more books! 😂 I bought The Christmas Appeal by Janice Hallett, Christmas at Corgi Cove by Annie England Noble and The Christmas Love Letters by Sue Moorcroft. 

    I think I have a Christmas book for every day of December now!

    Hi everyone. I just got Richard Osman's latest out of the library (The last devil to die), really looking forward to reading it. Has anyone else read it?

    In the past couple if weeks I have purchased 5 books.....
    2 were from Amazon
    2 were from an independent book shop and 1 was from a great old style second hand bookshop in Cromer......
    They cover subjects like WWII in Italy (My Dad  fought there), The Gunpowder plot and a novel on alternative history. The second hand book was on East Anglia written in 1920..... (original)

    @Hannah_Scope I got two Linwood Barclay books Trust your eyes and Never saw it coming I'm kind of on a mission to get all his books and I'm nearly there. I like his writing style so much and yet I've always said I don't have a favourite author maybe I do lol

    @Hannah_Scope I find with books they help me with my anxiety kind of switch off for a while.

    It is exciting when you know you have a new book about to be delivered.
