    An eclectic haul, filled with books I have ne'er had the pleasure of hearing about before. I hope you find some new favourites among them.

    Wonderful stuff ❤
    Today, I went on a gem hunt at the library and hauled several beautiful looking Japanese fiction reads.
    Wishing you success with the writing. Even though there's a hurdle. Hope you can manage some rest as well!

    Oh. What a lovely parcel. You have some good friends! When you showed the postcards I recognized the drawings from picture books my daughter has when she was little, but I'm afraid I can't remember the titles. I remember she loved the stories though. The teen horror book you received in that parcel was a series published about 10 years before the point horror books. I think I remember reading the doll. Teen horror in the 80s and 90s was great it didn't hold back. Also the Francine Pascal book you are reading rings a bell. I remember the cover anyway. Like Judy Blume Francine Pascal was my early teen reading along with Paula Danziger. Hope you feel brighter today. Have a good one!!

    I bought the last lemony snicket this month, and it arrived with those American edges. I shave them down with scissors.

    I hope you are feeling better. I know how that deep depression can eat at you. Do not suffer alone. And also you are amazing 👏 ps I'm not sick anymore. Those books sound amazing. I might check them out. I've got a huge TBR list to get through now. I'm now reading 📚 The Wheel in Space by Terrance Dicks. And I'm clearing my calendar 📅 for your new Doctor Who book 📖 take care of yourself. Sorry, I'm bad at voicing concern due to my mental disorders, so I hope this came out okay. 😢

    this is quite unrelated go your video (apologies for that) but ive just started the Iris Wildthyme audios and i love them so far (the 3 of yours so far are best. im on "The Land of Wonder"). Iris feels quite different from the Phoenix Court trilogy and the EDAs, but i suppose that's different incarnations for you!

      I hope it's good tho, and I will be buying all the books eventually (plus stuff like Exchange for Enter Wildthyme context)
