I love Julia Stuart. She writes such lovely, quiet books. There is always just a bit of magic, and I can't help loving the quirky characters. An interesting look at pearl fishing as well, which I didn't even know had existed in Scotland.

I have three books 📚 in my bag. I gave you the first one. Any guesses on the other two? Here‘s a hint about one: it involves 🐝 bees and a wedding. 😝🤪 I‘ll come back later for the reveal.
