My Life in Books - Tag

-

My life in books eh? Sounds interesting! Saw this somewhere and decided to do it.
I never know how to write an intro to a tag post so I hope that will do. *slowly walks away* :)


Find a book for each of your initials
H- Little House on the Prairie by Laura Ingalls
J- Jewel of the Thames by Angela Misri
S- Snug by Michael Morpurgo

Count you age along your bookshelf. What book is it?
Sadly not in this pretty edition!

 Pick a book set in your country
The main character is a New Zealander but the events of the book are set in other countries.
And this one now that I think of it....
These two are on my list of favourites. I should really re-read them.

Pick a book that represents a destination you'd love to travel to
Any book set in England. England and Ireland are places that I would love to go to.

Pick a book that is your favourite colour



Which book do you have the fondest memories of ?
I have a lot of good memories of my Mum reading us the books by Laura Ingalls Wilder.
I still need to read them for myself. I am trying to collect them in a certain edition.


Which book did you have the most difficulty reading ?
I did not finish this book. It wasn't bad, it just didn't hold my interest and seemed a bit boring.

Which book in your TBR pile will give you the biggest accomplishment when you finish it?
What a question!
Well, it would definitely be a classic. Maybe this one...


There, that was my life in books!

      Thanks! (I will probably do it sometime in the new year since I have a lot of drafts already.) Btw, forgot to mention, I absolute love that 'books' image with the Jane Austen quote. It's fabulous. Did you make it?

August Favourites

Wow, August has come to an end already! I am so excited that Spring is basically here now. The sunny weather and longer days have really done something to my creative juices, which seemed to be hibernating during winter and now there are awake and flowing again. Books The Beautiful Pretender by Melanie Dickerson My goodness, I enjoyed this book so much! I have a full review in the works but I definitely had to mention it in this post. It's like the second book its series(Medieval Fairytale series). I have just started the third and final book, The Noble Servant and it is equally as intriguing as The Beautiful Pretender. And the cover of TBP....so pretty! Sarah, Plain, and Tall by Patricia MacLachlan This book has become a new all-time favourite of mine! I found this on audiobook on my library's app and since I'd seen the movies a long time ago I decided to give it a go and get a boost on my Goodreads reading challenge. But I never would have known how much

What's on my Autumn Wardrobe Wishlist

  Summer is slowly coming to an end and I'm gearing up for the cooler weather by thinking about my autumn wardrobe. I'm planning a little thrifting trip in the next few weeks so I'm hoping I'll be able to find at least a few of these pieces while I'm there.  One of my wardrobe goals for the past couple of years has been to simplify & make it more minimal by slowly adding more basics and colours that easily mix & match with one another. So I kept this idea in mind while I'm putting together this list.  I've noticed that what's lacking in my autumn wardrobe is more tops rather than bottoms.  You can easily get away with only a few bottoms but it's usually the top you're wearing that people notice. So its good to have a little variety!  With all that being said, here are a few things I'm hoping to add to my autumn closet this season. Knit sweaters in neutral tones (white, beige, grey etc.) Source Lately, I've really been loving neutr

She is called Daughter

                                                                      She stood there. Watching. Waiting and dreaming.  Watching the wind toss the branches of the trees. Waiting in the stillness. And dreaming of things still to come. She adored the sweet solace she found on that quiet hill.  How the dainty flowers that grew there, bobbing back and forth in the breeze. For many years she had come here and always to escape the crowd. How they pushed and pulled her; it filled her head with fog. So she came to the quiet hill that felt closer to the sky, to have heavenly conversations with the Father of her heart.  Sometimes she would just sit and think.  Other times she might sing. Often she would pick armfuls of blossoms. But always she knew whose watchful eye was over her and she'd smile at the thought. It was while she was standing there dreaming, that when the breezes stilled, she heard the grasses rustling at her side. She saw a figure approaching,
