Arrgh! A few photos from The Jamaica Inn. A lovely place for lunch and great little museum of Cornish piracy, and of course, Daphne du Maurier.

Thank you @bertsbooks.bsky.social for my latest delivery; Death's End by Cixin Liu, The Light Fantastic by Terry Pratchett, and for Bertday, Black Lake Manor by Guy Morpuss!

We bought this for my mum for Xmas after hearing Sally's review on the podcast. We won't be seeing her this year, so we did pressies last week.
She loved this book and its dark humour. She's now recommending it to everyone she meets! Thanks @bertsbooks.bsky.social!

Be warned, if you sit next to me on a flight and ask me about the book I am reading, apparently I'm the sort of person that will not only give you a synopsis of that book, but I'll also start recommending a whole host of other books to you too. I apologise to my fellow passengers!

I've just signed up for this years' Secret Santa at @bertsbooks.bsky.social. Even if I achieve nothing else on this gloomy looking Friday, I can at least be happy about that. Fingers crossed that someone loves the surprise book that I've picked!
