There’s Something Special About Those Summerses…

The third instalment of Julie Klassen’s On Devonshire Shores series, The Seaside Homecoming, filled my “spare” (ha!) time last week and kept me enraptured.

Prepare for Christmas with New Christmas Reads!

I’m secretly posting this Christmas-related blog as I’m breaking our “house rules”. If Mr Wonderful had his way, I wouldn’t press Publish until November 29th!

While paying the postage fee for this letter, the Australia Post clerk exclaimed how she couldn’t believe it was already September, and we discussed how fast the year had disappeared. Of course, I knew […]

On Devonshire Shores

I’ve read several of Julie Klassen’s books (including this one), so my excitement piqued when my Libby library app alerted me that her newest series was available to borrow through my local library. I discovered the Libby app mid last year when I learned I could access a heap of e-books from authors I liked. […]
