June TBR




In June, I will be participating in June Eyre where I will be reading books inspired by Jane Eyre.  This is being ran by Laurenandthebooks.  The Patreon book club choice is Wide Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys



This is a prequel to Jane Eyre and relates to Rochester and his first wife.

Also, I will be reading Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier which although DDM never said was based on Jane Eyre, it certainly has similar themes



I am also planning to read The Skylarks War by Hilary McKay which won the Children's Award category for the Costa Book Prize in 2018.  Not Jane Eyre related but on TBR for the month



I haven't decided what other books I may read this month, but I want to read dependant on my mood, but as long as I read these three books I will be happy.  I am still enjoying my reading this year so far.

Quick Catch Up

 Hi All I've been absence from this blog for a while as unfortunately my beloved hubby has been diagnosed with cancer.  We have caught it early and the prognosis is very good and positive.  It has been a strange year all round and the last couple of months have been more stressful and worrying to say the least. Things are now on the up and thus I feel it is time I get back into updating this little blog of mine, and this little catch up is to say I am coming back.  I am planning more regular content, showcasing my crafty endeavours, what I'm reading and life in general I am also pondering a better and more productive blog schedule for 2021. Watch this space. With love and wishing you a good week Lesley xx

What a Year!!!!

What a year 2020 has been.   Coronavirus has virtually dominated the whole world and the way we live our lives have altered for all.  We haven't been able to do all the things we would normally enjoy do,  due  to the national and local tiered restrictions imposed on us.  We haven't been able to visit friends and family, enjoys holidays and breaks away, do so called normal things like shopping and visits to cafes and restaurants and for some people haven't even been able to work.  To say the very least, this year has been tough for all. On a personal level, I've been lucky in the fact that I only experienced a very tiny period off on furlough and I am currently still working.  My husband also has been able to work throughout the pandemic, although he has been working from home. I haven't felt much like shopping so have only been shopping in the supermarkets if I can't get an online delivery.  Anything else I am afraid have come from Amazon....
