  6. Lovely photos Margaret. I need to read more books. I haven't read in quite a while because it seems the time just isn't there. I am going to have to make that a priority.
    Blessings~

  8. This is my first time on your blog and I love it. Of course, I also love that you included my Paperback Book Cover! Thank you very much!

    I love to read and the theme of reading is a great one. I especially like the "diary" of books that have been read.

    Keep up the great blog. I'll be back. Gail at QuiltSewCover

  11. Lovely things around the concept of books.. I think everyone loves books, but actually finishing them might be difficult. I would love to read more than I currently do, but easier said than done.

    I recommend this site, Goodreads, to anyone who's out of book ideas.
