I do believe that book lovers have a stronger sense of hope and compassion. Words are the most marvelous things!

We haven't been away for the past 3 years, as we stay in a coastal, holiday town - where better to be than right here at home! Luckily we love it. <br /><br />I haven't read any of the books I've showcased. But at least 3 of them did now land on my TBR list. <br /><br />Good luck with all the reviews coming up! Hope to catch you at another WWW soon! I'm not planning one for next week, but one on the 9th again.<br /><br />Lots of Love!

Like "rude-ee?" Or "rud-dee?" Not sure. I can't use it aloud unless I know how to say it! <br /><br />I'm looking forward to Christmas this year.

Ruddy is a typically English word, so ...Hi Mareli,<br /><br />Ruddy is a typically English word, so I know it quite well, although it isn't used quite so much these days (it has been superseded by some much more horrible words than 'bloody'!).<br /><br />We are going to have a very quiet Christmas this year, as although we are to be allowed to mix with other people in a strictly managed way, we have more or less decided not to take the risk, as the scientists have pretty much come out and said that the number of cases are going to rise very quickly if people do mix and there will be another month long lockdown in the New Year.<br /><br />Hubbie has an underlying health condition anyway and as we have stayed safe so far, it doesn't seem worth the risk now that a vaccine is so close!<br /><br />I love the way you ran that word into your Christmas themed book covers. I particularly like the first Marianna Mayer cover. <br /><br />I see that the L. Frank Baum book is being re-released this year as a paperback with this lovely cover ...<br /><br />https://www.fantasticfiction.com/b/l-frank-baum/santa-claus-stories.htm<br /><br />I have so many publisher Blog Tour / Reviews scheduled, that I haven’t had the chance to get together another WWW, but I have just checked my advance scheduled posts and see I have one ready to go in mid December, so I’ll see you there then!<br /><br />Take Care! :)<br /><br />Yvonne xxYvonne @ Fiction Books Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821114534056290177noreply@blogger.com
