It’ll be happening right here in lovely Oxford on Saturday 25 September. I’m hoping I’ll be able to go, as I’ll [...]

The TV Book Club is back, and so is the Not the TV Book Group. Well, ish.

For Books’ Sake is teaming up with Ladyfest Ten! Books + Feminism = Very Happy Kirsty

The dust is beginning to settle, I’m beginning to get my reading mojo back, and that means I can begin to get back to some sort of regular blogging. Phew, it’s been an odd few weeks. So, where are we?
First up, bloody hell, I’m 8th in Wikio’s Top Culture Blogs! Now, this definitely isn’t an [...]
