Thank you so much Miranda, not only for showing those marvellous books, decorations and cards, but also for sharing those feelings and emotions that, undoubtedly, help us a lot. It's crucial for people to know and be aware that people who admire, have their own ups and downs and their "under the weather" weeks. Said that, your book suggestions and stationery are great as usual, in particular I would buy all those cards right now!!!!

Thank you for all this lovely inspiration! Now I want to reread Agatha Christie but I am also tempted by the Bloomsbury book. In my country we always bring in branches from willow or birch during lent and put in water to sprout leaves and we also decorate them with feathers, little eggs, bunnies and all sorts of "Easter-things"(traditions vary a bit on the country). This year I have knitted little decorations for Easter like chickens and small lambs (have to admit the lambs must belong to a new, rare breed, the are not immediately recognizable as lambs...)

While reading very exciting plots about rare books and people hunting them down, I also learnt a lot about the antiquarian book trade and, in the first novel (Booked To Die), about a stunning edition of Moby Dick illustrated by Rockwell Kent.
