Making time to read everyday


 I get through many books during the year from bookshops charity shops the local library and swapping with friends.  It is a bit of an obsession. - I have a tall pile of books waiting to be read - each dependant on what mood I am in.  This is my latest purchase from Oxfam.  HEBates is a favourite writer of countryside tales beautifully descriptive observations - but mainly I enjoy fiction



This is what I am reading at the moment - well I have almost finished it - written in, I think, 1939 but reprinted in 2014 - a sort of spy thriller about the Second World War - not really my kind of book but I am really enjoying it - which has surprised me and goes to prove that good writing will overcome prejudices - it was 10p in a library sale - a true bargain.

    Hi, I caught up with you last night but didn't comment. I have a lot of reading to do at the moment so things I want to read from choice are going by the wayside. I have never really stopped contact with you because of Instagram.

    I love the covers of good books too. They are making a comeback from the old days.

      This one really caught my eye - the liner one is from a poster I believe
