Midsummer round here: tits in the birdbox, first ever cherries and a massive moth...which, it turns out, is called a Cockchafer 😳. AKA a MayBug. It's all kicking off round here.

Guys, I've just started the latest hot novel, Fingersmith! Have you heard of it? Ha. Sooooo stupidly late to this one.

Plus side of being ill = reading all day in bed. God this is good. And a series. What joy.

Some recent reads. All good. The Sakekeep and Old God's Time especially.

Tree! Show me yours!

Seem to have a lot of follows but little interaction (less than old Twitter anyway) on here. Wondering why...

Some wintry books I found on the shelves. Recently read The Land in Winter which is utterly brilliant, saving The Party for closer to Christmas and apologies, but I had to include my own. Includes snow, dark marshes and ghosts. ❄️❄️❄️

One of the books I'm reading at the moment is this and bloody hell, it's good. The sort of writing where you think I wish I'd written it.
