We have a lovely festive read lined up here today, by Nicola May . As an added extra, there is a great giveaway . Details on how to enter are at the foot of this post.

Jane Austen   Pride and Prejudice

 Hello! I thought I'd begin with those words from Jane Austen, as she knew a thing or two about books - and life and everything. I may as well come out and admit it. I like Jane Austen rather a lot.

I am partial to the classics as they are known, but I do intend to broaden out  the books that I read and go for a varied mix. I am going to start with a book I recently reread for the book club I go to : George Eliot's Silas Marner.

 Anyway, welcome to this blog which you have stumbled across. Stay awhile and see what you think.
