Talkie Tuesday: Coronation Weekend 2023

 

"God save the King!"

 
 
I'm kinda-sorta cheating this week, but truth be told I wasn't paying attention to much else (besides family) while the coronation weekend was happening in the United Kingdom.
 
So I leave you with a collection of images from these last couple of days!

Tome Thursday: Red, White & Royal Blue


Hello everyone!

One more week, one more book blog, and this week it's one that just might turn into a favourite of mine.

Of course I say this about every third book, give or take, but that's beside the point.

I stumbled upon it by complete accident, I can't even remember how or why, maybe it was a suggestion on Facebook, or on Goodreads? Anyway, once I DID see it, I was intrigued enough to want to read what the story was about in a few sentences, to decide whether or not it would be worth my time.

I think it took me a grand total of five seconds to get a copy of the book.

That's how it happens sometimes, however, and no one and nothing can change that.

I can also honestly say I was not disappointed.

Tome Thursday: Daughter of Time


Hello everyone!

It's Thursday and time for another book review.

This week, I went back in time - no, not literally, of course. Although wouldn't it be neat if someone did in fact figure it out? I'd probably totally go and visit, but staying there would be a bit of a catch. Unless, of course, someone invented some sort of machine that not only went back in time, but went into an alternate reality, because then you can bet all you own that I'd be off to Middle Earth before you could say Frodo Baggins.

Ahem.

My time-travelling episode came from picking up book one in a series I didn't realize I would end up liking, but it sounded like something to will away the time, so I thought to myself, why not.

See, I'm kind of wary of time travelling books, mostly because I've read Outlander, and nothing so far has been able to quite compare.

Daughter of Time by Sarah Woodbury, though, comes quite close.
