December TBR



So it is December and it's the time of year for reading Christmas themed books.

This year I am participating in Lauren and the books Patreon Bookclub and Decembers book is Last Christmas curated by Greg Wise and Emma Thompson.  It is a collection of short essays about Christmas by celebrities such as Meryl Streep, Emma Watson, Bill Bailey,  and also normal people who may have been involved in homelessness, organ transplants, refugee etc.  It ties in with the new movie Last Christmas starring Emilia Clarke (of GOT fame).

I have also bought A Literary Christmas which is an anthology of Christmas stories and excerpts from classic books by people such as Charles Dicken, Louisa May Alcott and C S Lewis.

I will also be reading a few Christmas Chick Lit/Cozy romances that I have accumulated on my kindle.  I will list them in my December wrap up.

I will be continuing in my reading of Nigel Slaters Christmas Chronicles, which so far has been delightful to read  and is just comfort and joy.

I am also very much just reading on a whim and if I find other books with A Christmas/Seasonal theme, they may be added to my reading list.

I am looking forward to festive reading and I hope you too with partake in Christmas reads.

Seasons Greetings

Love Lesley xx

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....
