The beds are taking on an autumnal look - picked the last runner beans today - but the courgettes are still going strong and pumpkins are doing well. I‘m a novice and have used lots of different books to try to learn the basics- do you have a fab gardening book that‘s inspired rather than instructed?? Looking for winter reads to improve for next year!

PurpleyPumpkin Your garden is gorgeous! Looks like it was very productive. Well done!🌻 2y
charl08 Looks wonderful to me. I like going to fancy gardens and the ngs open days and seeing what others do. 2y
Soubhiville It‘s so lush! Looks to me like you had great success this year. 😊 2y

Chrissyreadit #wishiwasthere It‘s so beautiful! You really know what to grow!! 2y
BookNAround I‘m not posting a picture of my shriveled and sad garden, especially compared to yours! I might have to work on it next year since I killed so very many things this year without getting any produce from those plants. 2y
quirkyreader As for books it all depends on your zone. Are you closer to the Cotswold‘s or the south? 2y
Mitch @PurpleyPumpkin thank you - we grew a little of lots of different things! 2y
Mitch @charl08 a friend does this - I‘ll have to be brave and nose around next years NGS gardens ✔️ 2y
Mitch @Soubhiville much better than I thought! And it‘s still feeding us ( and the neighbours!) 2y
Mitch @Chrissyreadit beginners luck! 2y
Mitch @BookNAround oh no! We did a little if everything all jumbled up. So it was never too obvious when something died! 😂 2y
Mitch @quirkyreader we‘re in Suffolk 2y
quirkyreader DK books does a lot of team ups with the Royal Horticultural Society which are usually found in High Street shops with older editions sometimes showing up at charity shops. 2y
quirkyreader And since you are somewhat south, because you get the mild warmth, as you know your plants go like crazy. Have you tired strawberries yet? (edited) 2y

There is a live feed with Darynda Jones, Molly Harper, Charlaine Harris and Maggie Mae Summers answering questions at a booklovers convention! Darynda just announced that there will be only 13 books for the Charley Davidson series ☹️ Charlaine is hilarious! 😅 #wishIwasthere

DebinHawaii What an awesome panel! 📚👍 8y
Erika13137 @DebinHawaii I've only read books by DJ and CH, would you recommend the other two authors? 8y
DebinHawaii @Erika13137 Out of the four, I have only not read Maggie May Summers. I love Molly Harper's Jane Jameson & Half Moon Hollow series. They are southern paranormal snarky fun.💜📚 8y

Of all the books I've read this year, this is one of the ones that has stayed with me and I #wishiwasthere residing in a hotel by the lake in Switzerland ... Intrigues, mountain air and Europe ... Tempting! #Booktober catch-up continues 😉

Libby1 Wow. I'm glad you liked this one. I could not get along with it at all. I can read sad books but it just felt very hopeless. I stayed with it to the end but then we broke up. 😉 8y

Delving into the illustrated Chamber of Secrets.

Diagon Alley ❤️ #booktober #wishiwasthere #day24

DuckOfDoom Are the illustrated versions worth their money? 8y
BookishMarginalia @DuckOfDoom I think so, but I'm a sucker for HP AND for illustrated editions, so... 😊 8y
Samwise_Gamgee @DuckOfDoom @BookishMarginalia same here. I think they're beautifully done. It's fun to read them again with a different perspective. Also, check Amazon for the best price 8y

A charming story set in my favourite city. #wishiwasthere #booktober

Hobbinol That's outside the Pompidou Centre, isn't it? Niki de Saint Phalle sculptures are so vibrant and distinctive. Great photo! 8y
Lindy @Hobbinol Yes, it's the Stravinsky fountain. I've taken many photos of it, but they aren't on this device, so I nabbed one from the Internet. 8y
