My Cub got me used to birthday books that when the seller notified me they cancelled (yet again) my order for a rare & outta print book, it felt so wrong to NOT have a book on my special day.
So I went & bought myself another rare but easier to get book. A B&B one, of course!
I must've been born with my umbilical cord connected to a book.
Oh, and my site's finally up! No content yet, so you'll have to wait a bit.

Books are the best gift, (although chocolate is another favorite of mine). And, buying either one for yourself is acceptable! Happy birthday, and I hope that you had a marvelous celebration.

It's the latest Beauty and the Beast picture book adaptation, I originally ordered for the French edition, La Belle et la Bête, but the sellers said they weren't delivering to my location so I switched to the Spanish version as Amazon.es had copies to deliver worldwide.
Thank you, my friend!

The cover looks pretty! I hope the book is everything you are hoping for. ;)
I may be a bit late, but: happy birthday, Marquise. Hope you had a lovely day. And glad you were able to fix the issue by buying another book :)

Thank you, my lovely Thibu! 🥰 I did have a good day out, still feeling so full of food, and had some anecdotes worth a short story again.
Elentarri wrote: "The cover looks pretty! I hope the book is everything you are hoping for. ;)"Yeah! Lacombe is one of my favourite illustrators, I've been wishing he'd do B&B for ages, and he finally did. The scriptwriter is giving me trepidations from what the French reviewers said she did with the story, though. :'(
I'm still looking for the stupid book they cancelled my order for. I'm going to find it one way or the other, I swear...
Good luck finding that "stupid book"! 😘
