Latest (but not the last) September #bookhaul 📚
Mostly fantastic (Morgan, Adams and Priest), but I finally got Dino Buzzati and one of those beautiful Eco's books I've been collecting for a few years 💙
Two bottom left creepy books by Robert Irwin have great covers too😍
Coffee, camera, film, and Umberto Eco. In 2006 I moved from Korea to Australia. I gave away my copy of this book, unfinished. Two years ago my young cousin, Elizabeth, died of bowel cancer. Last week her mother delivered this book to me. It had been Elizabeth‘s. Now I read it again, with feeling. Liz loved her books. I only wish she‘d written in it. Her name at least. She was a librarian and averse to marking books. I scrawl all over mine!
1️⃣ My father reading this very second.
2️⃣ Chocolate. All. The. Time.
3️⃣ Wedding ring.
4️⃣ I wear black every day. But I only wear capris or cargo pants when not working. I wear blasers for conferences and public speaking.
5️⃣ Nope. We have until April up here.

#TBRtemptation post 3! The South Pacific in 1643, Roberto della Griva finds himself shipwrecked on a beautiful island. The ship's fully provisioned but the crew's gone. While getting himself composed and acclimated to his situation, the young dreamer will recollect his imaginary evil brother, the siege in the Thirty Years' War when he lost his father, his fencing lessons, his love letters, and much, much more. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎
Our former colleague who has since gone on to be the Library Director of another one in the county made these recommendations for August. A time-travel theme. What do you think? 😊👍🏻 #LitsyLovesLibraries
With a little imagination this cover could be a nautical map 😊

Here is but a small sample of my #translatedbooks. I have to admit that I don't usually pay attention to whether a book is a translation. As long as I can read it, I'm happy! #somethingforsept #septphotochallenge
