Just started to read this lovely little number sent to me by @LeeRHarry for our #aussiesecretsanta. I thought Lee had miraculously picked an #unknowntomeauthor and Australian at that! Then I scroll back through the Litsy posts on it and see that I have had numerous encounters with this book & had added it to my stack 🤪. Now I‘m even more excited to read it 😁. #currentlyreading

Jeg I looked at the profile and see I read it 5 years ago. I have no memory of it. But seems I liked it. 🙃 3mo
MrsMalaprop @jeg 😂 3mo
LeeRHarry Yes I had a little help from your stack! 😊 Hope you enjoy it! 3mo

Dear Sharni these gifts are so thoughtful! @thegirlwiththelibrarybag
I‘m late posting because I worked Christmas and then my Litsy app wouldn‘t load!
These books look fantastic…I love art, and discovering new authors, and of course historical fiction!! The print and brass blooms are lovely ❤️ I hope everyone had a lovely day!!

thegirlwiththelibrarybag @LeeRHarry, it‘s so underrated, I‘m taking any opportunity to get other people to read it 😂 4mo
thegirlwiththelibrarybag Merry Christmas Sally! Glad you like the print - I love how whimsical her work is and I thought combined with your interest in gardening - perfect! Happy reading! Hope you have a bit of downtime before your next work day. 4mo

My post office (my grandpa) neglected to tell me that I‘d received a pre Christmas package 🤭 so this was a lovely Christmas Day surprise.

Thank you so much @Rissreads - you are too generous! Your card made me 🤣 it‘s pure book lover maths to say that that you can‘t send a book bag without a book!

Rissreads I only posted it Thursday! Well done Australia post. Well done! 👏🏻 4mo
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @Rissreads, that‘s pretty good - from one side of the country to the other. 4mo

Thank you to my #aussiesecretsanta Whoever you are! I only know you‘re from Victoria. I‘ve been meaning to read the Stevenson but I‘ve never heard of the other. Everything else looks really nice too. Merry Xmas to you & yours♥️💚♥️💚♥️

thegirlwiththelibrarybag Oops, @kathy88 was too good at being secret! 4mo
thegirlwiththelibrarybag I loved Crown Duel - I‘ve got an old paperback version on my shelf somewhere, due for a reread, I think ☺️ (edited) 4mo
kathy88 lol yeah well I do take the secret in secret Santa seriously. 🤣 I‘m glad they are books you were interested in. Crown duel is such a good book. Was one I found ages ago and Sharni and I have read it a few times. Got a good story line and some interesting characters. Merry Christmas. 4mo

My first #aussiesecretsanta experience has been amazing. Thank you for including me in the #Aussiesecetsanta 2023. Looking forward to reading these books but will need to be when I am back from my lovely travels. Can‘t believe it‘s Christmas tomorrow. Thank you @thegirlwiththelibrarybag for including me in this.

thegirlwiththelibrarybag You are so welcome! I couldn‘t resist those flat pens… Merry Christmas and Happy Travels! 4mo
Rissreads Have a fantastic holiday! ❤️💚 4mo
Jhullie Let me know what you think of Icebreaker, I‘ve been considering buying it for ages. 4mo
kathy88 @Rissreads thank you. I can‘t wait. Get to spend time with family and then I‘m off. @Jhullie I will let you know what the book is like. 4mo

Well, I‘ve really got no excuse to put off reading Wolfsong now that I‘ve got Ravensong as well 😍

I absolutely love the patchwork pouch with the double zipper!! With matching bookmark! Did you make them Sally? My Mum is an amazing quilter - so I look forward to showing these off to her tomorrow.

Thanks for the other goodies 🥰🥰🥰

Hope you like yours too! #aussiesecretsanta

thegirlwiththelibrarybag You might just be able to make out the miniature sticky tape dispenser from the bonbon - too cute! And useable! 4mo
Gissy Pretty pouch😍 4mo
Freespirit Sharni so pleased you hadn‘t read the book! Yes I made the book bag and bookmark. I like to take a book everywhere I go and I find they get damaged in my bag so now I take them in a book pouch…especially if it‘s a borrowed book!! I hope you had a lovely day ❤️ 4mo
