Small pleasures on a windy Sunday afternoon - faded blooms, the last slice of birthday cake and starting this whimsical book for the #elizabethgoudgebookclub. I‘m only a few chapters in, but promises of verdant gardens, old houses with character, lost diaries, romance and intrigue, make my Sunday afternoon look quite exciting.

MsMelissa What a beautiful edition. 5y
catebutler @Book_Fiend_Melissa This author has been quite hard to find in the past (being out of print for some time). I‘m so happy this publisher recently started to bring her books back into print. They‘re some of my favourites!! 😊 5y
