Are you a fan of fact or fiction? I’d say my reading pile was fairly evenly divided between the two but I definitely read more non-fiction now than I ever have before.⠀
⠀
One of my favourite non-fiction reads of late is My Friend Anna by @rdwilliams; what’ve you read recently that you’d recommend?

Marking my return to Instagram after an unplanned

Marking my return to Instagram after an unplanned hiatus with a pic from one of my favourite spots in Byron and one of my very favourite quotes from a childhood classic I loved as a young girl 💞⠀
⠀
“Look at that sea, all silver and shadow and vision of things not seen. We couldn’t enjoy its loveliness any more if we had millions of dollars and ropes of diamonds” - Anne of Green Gables⠀
⠀
What’s your most treasured childhood book? ⠀

Easing my way into the end of the week curled up and cosy with a copy of James Patterson’s 19th Christmas - the perfect thriller to get in the mood for all things festive. I love the unputdownable nature of the story and the way in which the author keeps the reader wanting more. The fusion of crime + Christmas makes it the perfect December read 🤓⠀
⠀
What’s your favourite festive read?

What are some of your fave reads of 2019?⠀
⠀
Three stand-outs for me have been:⠀
⠀
Three Women by @lisadtaddeo ⠀
Places I Stopped on the Way Home by @meg_fee (admittedly this was a re-read of a book that I read - and loved - last year)⠀
An American Marriage by @tayari ⠀
⠀
These are three books I’ve picked as part of an ongoing collaboration with @west_hotelsyd as their Culturalist, which has involved me curating a selection of my favourite books for their guests to be able to order during their stay at the hotel. 📷 @nicklovinadventure

Anyone else ever just bought a book because the cover goes with the background of your pic?! Asking for a friend here 🤪😂⠀
⠀
In other news, I’m making a list of authors who I’ve been meaning to read forever but never quite got around to and who I’m determined to tick off next year. Thus far I’ve got:⠀
⠀
* Virginia Woolf⠀
* Iris Murdoch (hence the purchase of this book)⠀
* Markus Zusak⠀
* Milan Kundera⠀
⠀
Are there any authors you’re hoping to tick off in 2020?

Tis a rather gloomy morning in Sydney today so I’m throwing it back to a sun-drenched stay at the stunning @deuxbelettes.
⠀
What are you reading this weekend?
