Quotes by Lia Weston  (?)

“Ruby poked at her rice, her mind racing. Perhaps he'd mistaken her for someone who had done a massage course or was qualified to give spriritual advice. She could only give advice on spirits, and only then if they were alcoholic.”
Lia Weston, The Fortunes of Ruby White
tags: humour

“There was a lively moment when an octogenarian carrying a box marked 'quiche tins, loose base, 2/6' nearly garroted himself with an extension cord.”
Lia Weston, Those Pleasant Girls

Topics Mentioning This Author

“Another female household-hinter gave me a recipe for a big hearty main dish of elbow macaroni, mint jelly, lima beans, mayonnaise and cheese baked until 'hot and yummy.' Unless my taste buds are paralyzed, this dish could be baked until hell freezes over and it might get hot but never 'yummy.”
Betty MacDonald, Onions in the Stew

message 6: by Lia

Lia Weston Nice - congratulations! If you're in Waymouth Street, pop past our shop (www.bmcr.com.au) and say hi. It's not books, but bikes, so that's... not really close at all, I guess. :-)


aprille Oh good lol. Things are excellent in Victor, getting geared up for summer. I got accepted into university so I'll be moving to the city in January. It's all happening! :)


message 4: by Lia

Lia Weston I do indeed! It was great to chat to you afterwards. How are things going in Victor? Are there still plans afoot to move to Adelaide? :-)


aprille It's ok, I only sent it a few hours ago I think. Do you remember me? We met a few months ago at the Victor Harbor Library, when you were doing an author talk. My name is Renee (Aprille is just a pen name).

:)


message 2: by Lia

Lia Weston Hi Aprille! Sorry - I didn't even realise there was a request. (Still a bit of a Goodreads novice.) All is well, thanks - and you?

:-)


aprille Hi there :) Thanks for accepting my request. Hope is all well :)
