Some dogs are shy and anxious, and so are some children.

Can Boo and Phoebe turn their fears into a positive experience?

A book that celebrates the joy of reading is always a big hit with me. Being a cat lover myself, this book has made me wonder whether there is a story where a cat helps someone to discover the joy of reading?

mm- this sounds like an investigation to me..and don't forget, there is 20% discount on all my new books! 😊

A new arrival to my vintage book collection. Published by Handheld Press, Sylvia Thompson’s sweeping novel begins with Frenchwoman Blanche Lancret, waiting in England for her American lover during the early years of the Second World War. Recording their romance in her journal, along with memories of her childhood, she describes the intensity of their love, how they were kept apart and the thrill of unexpected reunion.

Dorothy Leigh Sayers (13 June 1893 –17 December 1957) was a renowned English crime writer, poet, playwright, essayist, translator, and Christian humanist. She was also a student of classical and modern languages.

She is best known for her mysteries, a series of novels and short stories set between the First and Second World Wars that feature English aristocrat and amateur sleuth Lord Peter Wimsey, which remain popular to this day.

I love reading her books, in particular Strong Poison. Written and published in 1930 it introduced Harriet Vane; a woman who shunned the traditional role of a woman and lived as she wanted to. The way she lived became the focus of a murder trial and was sensationalised in the media. Her antagonism towards Lord Peter Wimsey (Sayers Amateur Detective) who is trying to secure her release from prison and a possible death sentence, is written with great insight and wit.

This quote, from a later novel by Sayers, is a great pick me up! 😊
