The love of learning, the sequestered nooks, and all the sweet serenity of books. A little literary vacation…. June 1, 2016. Hello you lovely lot. This blog has been going for quite some time and I am so grateful to you bookish folk for sticking around so long. Although Literary Relish is far from dead, it’s time I took a much needed break with a temporary 2016 hiatus. It’d be just lovely to spend some time getting on top of my TBR and playing with the puppy. Pressure off. April 2, 2016. Our shabby-chic ...

The first time I visited York, I stepped off the train and into this bookshop. A little serendipitously, as it’s quite easy to miss nestled down a little alley close to York Minster, hence the name. Cosily squeezed in over five floors of a traditional Georgian townhouse, Minster Gate Bookshop is a welcoming hub for bibliophiles to lose themselves. The Minster Gate Bookshop, 8 Minster Gates, York. One of York’s oldest shopping streets, Fossgate is a real hidden gem in the city. Home to various i...You are...

Lit Nerd: June 2016
http://www.litnerd.co.uk/2016/06
Things That Made Me Happy. Friday, 24 June 2016. It's that time of year again! Today my sister and I are jetting off to San Sebastian for a long weekend, which means two days reading by the sea, as much tapas as I can squeeze in and a shed load of wine. I've not had a break yet this year and I can feel myself reaching potential burn out stage so this short holiday is coming just at the right time. So, in order of preference, I will be reading:. Exposure by Helen Dunmore. I Saw a Man by Owen Sheers. Five ...

https://anadventurersjournal.wordpress.com/2015/03/17/on-the-herriot-trail-yorkshire-england-2011
March 17, 2015. On the Herriot Trail — Yorkshire, England 2011. Saturday May 21, 2011 —. Arrival in England. We’d had a string of bad luck getting on our way which included a canceled flight, failure to procure a reserved GPS unit at the rental car office, and about an hour of being lost in Manchester until we finally bought ourselves a GPS and got on our way. Finally we set off for Carperby and the Wheatsheaf Inn. The village of Carperby, in the Yorkshire Dales. When danger reared its ugly head, they br...

All Things in Print: Nooks, Corners & Musty Books
http://allthingsinprint.blogspot.com/2011/11/nooks-corners-musty-books.html
All Things in Print. Word-loving, book-hoarding, literary-loving geek discusses everything in print. Saturday, 12 November 2011. Nooks, Corners and Musty Books. I'm not the kind of girl who is want to buy a new, shiny book whose pages have not yet been turned. I have nothing against the likes of big chain bookshops - I used to mill about in the Waterstones on. On cold, dark and rainy London days. And could often be found. I'm always on the lookout for good bookshops but this following list is my top five:.

Lit Nerd: 2016
http://www.litnerd.co.uk/2016
Things That Made Me Happy. Wednesday, 7 December 2016. Insomnia / Insomniac's Moon. Insomniac's Moon is Ruth Fainlight's response to Elizabeth Bishop's poem Insomnia. Elizabeth Bishop was an American poet and short story writer who received the Pulitzer Prize for poetry in 1956. Shamefully, I hadn't heard of Bishop before reading this anthology, but as more than one contemporary poet chose to respond to her works I have some understanding of her popularity and impact. Saturday, 3 December 2016. The Sick ...
