Gone with the Book discussion

I will be reading All quiet on the Western Front from Remarque published in 29

I’ll be reading Marjory Fleming by Oriel Malet.

I have my copy coming from Amazon. Looking forward to reading a new author.

I just happened to have recently ordered this one from Persephone. So I’m going to read it. I live those editions and am slowly trying to collect them. So many interesting suggestions!

I’m reading the World my Wilderness

I am just about to start House Bound

I will be reading The Enchanted April by Elizabeth von Arnim.

I’m going to read Housebound as well

I just bought The Heat of the Day by Elizabeth Bowen (1948) to read in October. But might pick up Housebound as well...

Just started House -Bound this morning.

Just had a peek at Christina Stead's The Beauties And Furies. There's a lot of light energy in the writing, which might be a great foil for some other contemporary library books I'm trying to finish reading before they are due back to the library. So hope to read that one through to the end of the book, fingers crossed :D

Ooh, never even heard of her :) I shall put that on my TBR

Talking a bit about Home-Bound in today's video.... https://youtu.be/p_fpoUtDDpE

I've finished my first book by Elizabeth von Arnim, Enchanted April, and it was sometimes quite charming, but overall too sweet and cheesy for my taste.

Finished House-Bound yesterday morning. I enjoyed it. I LOVE those Persephone editions. Part of the enjoyment was the physical book itself.
