Hot coffee, beach hangs + Housekeeping by Marilynn Hot coffee, beach hangs + Housekeeping by Marilynne Robinson makes for my favourite kind of Saturday.⠀ ⠀ What are you reading this weekend? ☕️
Aspiring authors, would-be writers and everything Aspiring authors, would-be writers and everything in between, if there’s one book about writing you’d recommend to anyone, what would it be?
When you inadvertently match your bikini to your b When you inadvertently match your bikini to your beach read it’s time for a #bookselfie 🏝 ☀️ ⠀ ⠀ Do you have a favourite author or genre for lazy days in the sun? @janegreenauthor is my go-to but boy do her books make me wish I could hop on a plane to a small coastal town in New England with white picket fences and no talk of social-distancing ✈️
A slow Sunday spent curled up on the sofa with tea A slow Sunday spent curled up on the sofa with tea on tap is my favourite way to wind down the weekend ☕️⠀ ⠀ Any suggestions which book I should read next from my reading stack?
⭐️ Happy 5 year Aussie anniversary to me ⭐️ ⠀ ⠀ 2 broken hearts, 17 visas, 2 deportations, countless flights home, a sea of tears, 8 different apartments, a bank of life-long memories and lessons; an ocean of uncertainty + I wouldn’t change a thing for the world.⠀ ⠀ Sydney you have been my biggest teacher and my longest-standing love affair.⠀ ⠀ Here’s to many more happy memories together ❤️⠀ ⠀ 📷 @dwaroundtheworld
The first book I read of @therealjoycemaynard’s The first book I read of @therealjoycemaynard’s was Labour Day, way back when I first starting blogging. I went on to read Under the Influence and the utterly beautiful The Best of Us when I was living in LA, and then last year was lucky enough to join her memoir writing retreat in Lake Atitlan, which was one of the most memorable experiences of my life.⠀ ⠀ Eighteen months on, I’ve finally managed to source another of her books (thanks to @janeellenturner @gertrudeandalice) so tonight I plan on climbing into bed for a very early night with nothing but To Die For for company.⠀ ⠀ What are you reading this week?
Sunrise spring swims at my favourite spot are so g Sunrise spring swims at my favourite spot are so good for the soul 🤩🥰☀️⠀ ⠀ Happy hump day y’all ❤️
