Books, bits, bobs and the occasional cat…
Good evening, bookworm, do come in. Would you mind flicking the Christmas lights around the door, please? They’re a little temperamental, especially since the cats try and bat the lower bulbs. Ah, perfect! I love the different shadows and glow they cast upon the walls of my book nook; it looks rather artistic in a […]
Read MoreHello bookworm, come in, come in. Hang your coat and scarf up and warm yourself up by the fire. Just step over the books there – I recently rescued some vintage books from the 1940’s and 50’s so have been giving them a little TLC before I tuck them in safely on the bookshelves. Some […]
Read MoreWelcome bookworm, it’s lovely to see you. It may be gloomy outside today but inside my warm little book nook, all is cosy and snug. I love how books allow you to escape from the darkest of days to all corners of this world or others. And not just via the Travel books, although they’ll […]
Read MoreGood morning, bookworm, do come in. Would you like some tea? Or if you prefer something with a little more oomph, I have a fresh pot of strong coffee here.

Read MoreHello, bookworm, it’s lovely to see you again. Do come in, but be careful of the wet floor; the Art and Craft books invited several genres to a Christmas crafting hour early this morning and it was rather messy, so it’s taken ages to tidy up. The True Crime genre got a little carried away, […]
Read MoreGood morning, bookworm, do come in from the rain. Goodness, you’re drenched! Let me take your coat and fix you a hot drink while you get settled by the fire. There are some little chocolates to nibble on too, if you like. I had to buy them after reading The Chocolate Box by Isabella May […]
Read MoreHello bookworm, have you been waiting long? I’m sorry I didn’t hear you knocking; I was in a world of my own there while I was dusting the bookshelves and trying to ignore the squabbling. It’s always the same: The classics genre seem to think a bit of dust adds a degree of gravitas to […]
Read MoreHello bookworm, come in, come in. I feel like one of the dragons today, seeing clouds of steam on the cold air as I breathe. I have a hot cup of tea and some freshly toasted crumpets all ready for you to help you warm up. Here come the cats to snuggle on our laps […]
