#jinglebookrock rock today asked for white books! I love how white spines look together! My lovely son @tommadethis recently bought me a snow blanket as a prop (he knows me well!) and he was kind enough to help me with this photo! Future bookstragmmer in the making? #bookchallenge #whitebooks #winterscenes #whitespines #silenceofthegirls #beautysleep #stationeleven #thekiterunner #lincolninthebardo #murderattheoldvicarage #herculepoirotschristmas

All books should have Christmas hats! 🎅 I got to visit the Ironbridge bookshop today! I've been wanting to visit for a long time and we happened to be driving past and my lovely sister @mrsjaneyj took me! It was as lovely as I expected and I may have bought myself a couple of things! Swipe through for some more pics! #theironbridgebookshop #bookshoplover #independantbookshops #penguinbooks #orangepenguins #bookstacks #bookshopping #seabirdsaturday
On the blog today is Echo of a Scandal by Laura Madeleine. Set in Tangiers in 1928 we meet Ale, a young girl wrongly accused of murder who has to flee for her life. Disguising herself as a boy, she manages to get a job as a cook for the wealthy Arthur Langham. But we soon realise she is not the only one with secrets to hide. 50 years later, writer Sam Hackett comes across a writing case with initials A L and senses a mystery attached to it that he sets out to solve. I loved all the descriptions of food and drink in this book. Tangiers really came alive for me and I loved finding out what happened to Ale at the same time as Sam. Really enjoyable historical fiction! And Laura put together a special themed parcel to go with the book including a cocktail inspired by the book, some harissa spices and some scented candles. Thanks to @lauramadeleineauthor for gifting me these goodies! #anechoofscandal #lauramadeleine #historicalfiction #tangiers #bookblogger #booksandcocktails #gifted #bookreview #bookblogger
Day 4 of the @tandemcollectiveuk advent book challenge asks for 3 wise women of literature! I've chosen to interpret this as three female authors I've really enjoyed this year for the first time. These are the ladies I want to read more from! Luckily two have a back catalogue and one has a new book out in 2020! 🎄 @head_in_the_pages came up with today's tag! Check out @tandemcollectiveuk for their daily advent challenge! #tandemadvent #femaleauthors #bookandjumper #cozy #bookchallenge #andrealevy #taylorjenkinsreid #betholeary #theflatshare #thesevenhusbandsofevelynhugo #everylightinthehouseburnin
Day 2 of #jinglebookrock is a book I enjoyed last December. For book club we always do a Christmas murder mystery evening in December. One of our members reads the whole book and on the night the rest of us try and guess who the murderer is! I really enjoyed Hercule Poirot's Poirot's Christmas! I'm not very good at guessing though! Do you enjoy a Christmas murder mystery? #agathachristie #herculepoirotschristmas #christmasmurdermystery #christmasbooks #bookchallenge #bookclub #bookclubreads #bookblogger
