Books, bits, bobs and the occasional cat…
Oh, hello bookworm, I didn’t hear you come in! I was just having a quiet moment with my cats and a steaming hot cup of coffee. Do hear that? No sound other than the occasional rustle of pages from the bookshelves. All is blissfully calm here, for a change so I’m making the most of […]
Read MoreGood morning, bookworm, do come in. Just be careful crossing the floor; I had to clean up the mess left by an altercation between some of the police procedurals and crime mystery books last night about which were superior (after careful negotiation, we have all agreed that they are each superior in their own special […]
Read MoreGood morning, bookworm, do come in. Don’t worry about the fallen leaves blowing in, they’ll keep the baby dragons amused for a while. Have a seat and pop your feet up while I make you a cup of tea. Do you want a biscuit to dunk? I’ve had to stop dunking biscuits when I’m reading […]
Read MoreWelcome, bookworm, do come in. Can you believe we’re almost halfway through October? It’s my favourite season, full of snuggly blankets, hot chocolate and cosiness. Speaking of cosiness, I want to tell you about a book I’ve just read: It’s called Boomerville at Ballymegille and is written by Caroline James. Before I get to my […]
Read MoreWelcome, bookworm – don’t trip over the piles of books! I’m doing a little reorganisation of the bookshelves here following some anti-social behaviour amongst the bookshelves. Last night, the feel-good fiction books were most upset when the psychological thrillers started loudly telling them how nobody can be trusted, spouting statistics about men killing their wives, […]
Read MoreGood afternoon, bookworm, do come in from the rain. Here’s a towel to dry yourself off with. I’ll make you a cup of tea to warm up with and you can snuggle in the comfy chair next to the fire with a cake and a cat if you like. Since it’s October, there’s one thing […]
Read MoreGood morning, bookworm! Come in and snuggle under one of these thick, cosy blankets. I’ve only just managed to get the heating on; the dragons normally warm the pipes for me if I just need to take the chill off a room but this morning they stubbornly refused. I know why they’re sulking: I forbade […]
Read MoreWelcome, bookworm and a happy Sunday to you! I hope your plans today involve some resting and reading before we start the week again tomorrow. I have a pot of coffee this morning, as I need something to wake me up. Do help yourself, and have a pain au chocolat too. Shoo! I’m sorry, not […]
Read MoreGood morning, bookworm, let me take your coat and scarf. Goodness me, it’s chilly this morning as autumn wraps us in it’s embrace of change. I feel like I turned a little poetic there; it must be from dusting the poetry bookshelf this morning. They don’t get as much attention as the other books, so […]
Read MoreWelcome, bookworm! Come in from the mist and have a look at what I’ve got here. Don’t worry about your shoes, it’s only around the Classics shelves that you need to take them off, or they’ll be demanding someone clean the carpet… I haven’t even had time to brew a pot of tea for you […]
