Top Ten Bookish Things (That Aren’t Books) That I’d Like To Own

15th April 2014 By Julianne 5 Comments

I love this topic! Top Ten Tuesday was created and is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.
Top Ten Bookish Things (That Aren’t Books) That I’d Like To Own

1. A windowseat for reading in. Nice and wide, with plenty of cushions and blankets.

2. Belle’s library from Disney’s The Beauty and the Beast. The greatest library ever to have been imagined.

3. Bookshelf stairs. So practical, so amazing.

4. A Loyal Order of the Basset Hounds badge.

5. A Bibliochaise. If only it had a teapot stand.

6. Tentacle Pirate Ship Attack Bookends! Just pure excellence.

7. A book clutch bag. The very height of bookish glamour.

8. One of these book necklaces.

9. From Neverland to Wonderland: A Map of Children’s Literature in Britain. There’s also a Literary Map of the USA for those reading from across the pond.

10. A Gimble Traveler hands free reading tool. I already own and love the ordinary Gimbles, but they’re difficult to carry around as they don’t have the hinge that the travel versions do.

Monday Amusements 30

7th April 2014 By Julianne 1 Comment

Getting books out of boxes and back on the shelves! Follow me on Instagram to see more.

Michelle’s thoughts on New Adult books echo my own. I was excited about the possibilities that New Adult could offer when I first heard of it, but so far it’s been a disappointment, and as far as I can see, hasn’t lead to anything new.


Tanya might have changed her mind about book reviews. This is a really interesting post. I do read book reviews in order to discover books that I might otherwise have missed and collect recommendations, but I do like being able to get to know other bloggers and their tastes by following their reviews.

Sophie responds to Michelle’s Bookish Brits video about book turn-offs. I’m so jealous! I would love someone to write or record a response to one of my videos! I am actually planning on doing my own list of things that put me off books, so maybe Michelle is just better at me at picking topics for videos!

This list is short and sweet, but I haven’t had much time lately to browse the internet and keep up with what’s being shared on Twitter. Do you have any bookish links to share with me?
