ReplyDeleteI love to read mysteries, so I would recommend anything written by Agatha Christie, or Dorothy Sayers. Thanks for the great giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI cannot reccomend Zakka Style more strongly. I have already made many projects from this book. Some multiple times.
ReplyDeleteMy go to sewing book is Heather Ross' Weekend Sewing. I just love her sewing style and her book has an easy and "breezy" feel to it...
ReplyDeleteI love a good Haruki Murakami book - totally confusing but completely engrossing

ReplyDeleteI recently devoured the Graceling series by Kristin Cashore. It's great world building, fantastic characters, and really well crafted relevant plots. Great for both adults and younger readers
ReplyDeleteThe last book I finished for fun was "The Age of Innocence" by Edith Wharton. It's actually highly depressing, though lovely, so if that's not your thing, then I recommend "Bossypants" by Tina Fey, which is what I'm reading now. I'm pretty sure I kept the occupants of the apartment above me awake last night because of laughing. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I am a follower! I love that blue flower print from "Bella" so much.
