A descriptive history of Poland's odd way of getting a leader. Basically they voted on a royal member of other European nations. This is why Russia and Germany and others were always trying to annex it. Very complicated and very sad.

After doing some research I found a last book (blacked out in picture) for #BasicWitchSwap . I just didn't have faith that if I ordered a book it would get here on time for me to ship on time. Just need to get a couple of goodies and I'm hoping to have it shipped next weekend.
Of course I also had to pick up some books for myself. Two are off my #TBR and the tagged book was just a random choice. Looks good though!

This week has some 500+ page books. With self-distancing/quarantine maybe I‘ll get to some of these sooner rather than later.
Have you read any of these? Which do you recommend?
Stay safe out there!
I haven‘t read this, but my mother is a huge Michener fan - we visited St. Michaels Maryland because he lived there - so she probably has. #poland #letstravelaugust @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @OriginalCyn620
Dear Carolina, @CaroPi
As you can see, even the kisses and peanut butter cups made it. Since the cats started playing with those instantly, I had to rescue them first.
Thank you for the Polish chocolates, haven't had those in years. My lovely Polish born friend, in Krakow even, moved away years ago and we lost contact, she used to spoil me with these chocolates. 😘😘😘

The Poland and Czech Republic section of Stanford‘s travel bookshop in London 💖💖 just as good as Daunt in my opinion but much less well known. I‘m getting ready for my Warsaw trip in January and got a gorgeous book for by bf‘s Christmas gift to get hyped beforehand. I‘m struggling to find a good Warsaw travel guide so will have to get on amazon unfortunately
Another #Augustisatrip prompt, another Michener book! This one I *do* remember reading. There‘s a particularly memorable section about a siege on a city in #Poland with a name I couldn‘t pronounce.
Many years since I read this book but did love it at the time, giving you the history of Poland over eight centuries through the story of 3 families. #SetInEasternEurope #uncannyOctober
My #aprilreads. It was a good month for lengthy novels, and really difficult to choose the best of April, as I read so many great ones this month.
pickWhat a book! I'm buying my dad a gift for recommending it to me. So beautiful, interesting, heartbreaking, thoughtprovoking and educational. I wanna read it again. Amazing. #greatread

Is there anything better than Sunday mornings? Wishing you all a great reading day 😀📖
