Books, bits, bobs and the occasional cat…
Good morning, bookworm, it’s lovely to see you on a Monday morning – nothing sets my week up better than talking books over a steaming mug of coffee with a fellow literature lover. Wait… did you hear that? It sounded like something creaking but I don’t see anything. The cats are snoozing, the dragons are […]
Read MoreGood morning, bookworm, it’s so lovely to see you again! Do come in, I’ve just made a stack of pancakes to help mend the broken heart of one of the romance books (I’m trying to wean it off cookie dough ice cream) and you’re welcome to tuck in too. Here you go, would you like […]
Read MoreWell hello, bookworm, how lovely it is to see you on this rainy January day! Come in and get dry by the fire. I’d say happy new year since this is the first visit of 2021 but that may be stretching the acceptable social conventions of that one a little too far since we’re almost […]
Read MoreGood 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 MoreGood afternoon, bookworm, it’s lovely to see you again. Now, you may need to duck a little as you come through to the library; I was digging around in the old attic just out of curiosity, and came across some old, foil Christmas decorations like the ones I remember my mum hanging up when I […]
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 MoreOh, 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 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, […]
