What a ride! Definitely a pick but it‘s so good on audio! Both Sam and Graham narrate the book and have banter throughout the book for extra laughs and excellent history! #clanlands #scottish #scottishhistory #roadtrip #meninkilts

Booknerd222 I listens to the sample and it sounds so good! I could listen to Sams voice all day! 4y
451Degrees @Booknerd222 same!! It was quite the treat😍 4y

You guyyyyssssss!! I forgot this came out today and I‘m so so so excited😱 any Outlander fans should check this out it‘s gonna be great! It‘s even narrated by them too! Also I don‘t know if everyone knows this but Graham McTavish is a huge lover of books! He does his own “book club” on Instagram every now and again recommending his favorite books! Eeeeeek! #clanlands #outlander #scottish #samheughan #grahammctavish

erinreads I can never get into audiobooks, but I might try this one! I think having Sam Heughan read to me might be the trick. 💕 4y
451Degrees @erinreads it‘s great so far! Almost structured like a podcast ☺️ 4y

This was a fun little book. It‘s not hard to read. It could easily be a series of bedtime stories for children. None of them are long, but they all have magical elements. I wasn‘t very excited for the romance section at the end, but it actually wasn‘t bad. I quite enjoyed every part of this book. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys less common fairytales or Celtic culture.

GingerAntics It was a fun, quick read for an adult. The illustrations were wonderful. For the art alone, I would highly recommend this book. #CelticTales #FairyTales #Celtic #Irish #Scottish #Welsh #Britannic #Ireland #Scotland #Wales #Brittany 5y
TiredLibrarian I love the cover art! 5y
GingerAntics @TiredLibrarian the art throughout this book was amazing. The cover art is the perfect sampling of the art inside. 5y
Weaponxgirl Ahh, I love these kind of books 5y
GingerAntics @Weaponxgirl right? They‘re a fun romp of a read. This one has wonderful art in it, as well. Some of the stories had a little more Christian influence then I would have like, but I suppose they couldn‘t help themselves putting in their own elements to these old stories when they wrote them down. 🙄 sigh. It almost seems like they were trying too hard sometimes. (edited) 5y

“But I‘m not a white person. I‘m f***king pale blue. It takes me a week of sunbathing to turn white! And the Irish tend to be pink, I find. They run to the pinkish. We‘re more your powder blue.” Never a more accurate description of my skin tone 🤣 #scottish #scottishproblems #billyconnolly #funny

We looked out the window at work this morning to find an "Oor Wullie" statue. Turns out it's part of an art project and there is 201 to find in the city. Summer sorted!! #OorWullie #Scottish #Scotland #SummerChallenge

Lunch time reading with a coffee and the biggest yum-yum I have ever see! Scottish Harry Potter is slow-going even for a Scottish lass - but I‘m loving it so far and there‘s very few words I don‘t understand.

Time for #UnpopularOpinion. This book tries to be at once a witty survey of little #Scottish town life from bookseller perspective, humorous collection of strange visitors and essay on bookselling industry. But it is sketchy, non-original and full of unnecessary details of daily routine. I was bored reading it, though I felt kind of nostalgic when the book was finished. I can't say it's bad, but I'm totally not into this kind of #diary. #bookclub

Crazeedi Thanks for opinion, I have this on my tbr . 6y
Violetta @Crazeedi It seems most readers and my bookclub members love the book, so I'd recommend it even if I'm not so impressed 6y
Crazeedi @Violetta 👍😊 6y

Quirkybookworm It wasn't just a poem, it was sung also. 6y
jb72 @Quirkybookworm that‘s cool. It seems like the Scotts like to sing a lot of poems and tales. 6y
