Been spending the week re-watching this old fave, and rediscovering my deep love for the Hot Priest. Wish we saw more evidence of his bookishness, but I'm gonna take his word for it. 😜 #CurrentlyWatching

Olivia Coleman is everything! She portrayed Phoebe Waller Bridge's stepmom/Godmother in the series Fleabag. Funny and cringeworthy, the kind of stepmom that makes you grind your teeth 😬 😬😬

pickJust unbelievably perfect. Funny, sharp, awkward, heartbreaking, gut wrenching. Anything that can make me laugh out loud, and ugly cry is a total winner for me. It‘s all the things, all the feels. Phoebe is a goddess. 💕
5 minutes in and I've laughed harder than I have in
.... I don't even know how long. I know I'm late to the party, but this is exactly what I needed 😂😂
pickOne of my favourite women at the moment is obviously #PhoebeWallerBridge 🥰 I think she‘s a genius and has created some of the most incredible female characters! I can‘t wait to see what she‘s done with James Bond when the new film finally comes out 😍 #InternationalWomensDay

@MrBook
I actually ended up reading 5 books in January with one word titles! Loved them all except Sourdough, which was just a so-so for me...
Hard to pick a favorite, but if I had to, I‘d have to pick Fleabag, because I think Phoebe is a bit of a genius!💕
#bookreport
A great start to the year!
- completed Lisa Jewell for B&N bookclub. Not groundbreaking but fun page-turner.
- read the original Fleabag play. Lots of great background stuff from Phoebe about how the character came about. Loved it!
- Backman novella for #authoramonth which hit very close to home. #infinitetissueread 😢
- Still working on my Gentleman in Moscow audio!
- Started The Lover in print, and Twenty-One truths on kindle.👍
pickKicked off the year with this little gem... This special edition features not only the original play, first performed in it‘s entirety at the Edinburgh festival, but also lots of extra content. This gives amazing insight into ‘Fleabag‘ the character, Phoebe‘s creative process, and her philosophy in writing for an audience, and the feelings and reactions she seeks. Snarky, filthy, funny and ultimately touching, I‘m genuinely in awe of her genius.

Patio reading on this gorgeous FL winter day....
Don‘t read plays very often, but I think Phoebe is kind of a genius 😍💕
My ambitious #JanuaryTBR 📚
- Circe, Gentleman in Moscow, Sour Dough and Stella Fortunata are all book club picks...
- And Every Morning.... is for #authoramonth

Happy New Year everyone! 💕🍾🎉

This little beauty was here when I got home after work! 😍
Thinking of using it as a #doubledip for #Pop2020 and #Booked2020 for next year....
This would work for Makes you LOL, #ThinkPink or Pink covers, Millenial authors and for Pop challenge for Set in an Olympic city (London)....... 🤓
I am so excited!!! Fleabag is one of my favourite things ever and I absolutely love Phoebe Waller-Bridge
When you go back to work full-time after 4 1/2 years and you‘re exhausted because you kinda know the industry you‘re in but you kinda don‘t so there‘s a learning curve - and on your first day, you find THIS waiting for you from your BFF - who also held my hand this entire year while I looked for job. I wish everyone could have a @MicheleinPhilly in their life. Friendship is also a love story. ❤️
The BFG is neglected now that I‘m gone all day! 😹
Thank you Waterstones! 🙌🏼
