Well done, Diana!

I'm in the process of adding books to my Christmas wishlist. It's such a hard list to write! There are blockbusters that I'd love, like The Testaments by Margaret Atwood, but then I want to support other authors too. So I'm tweaking the list every day or so!

Oh lucky you. Love her books and I had even pre ordered this on Kindle but for some reason its been cancelled. Not sure why because its not unusual for publication times to be pushed out.

[Em__Jay]

An unexpected surprise! Today, the postman brought to me The Siberian Dilemma by Martin Cruz Smith.

And me! You have to wonder, though, about their postage costs. I got an A&U book yesterday as well, could have gone in the same parcel.
Also from Bloomsbury Australia, Such a Fun Age

Same Marianne. Two separate in two days. Not exactly cost efficient. But long as. We get them we shouldn’t complain.
