Pictures of my beautiful friend Ayla, taken by Perry Graham.
In light of what I talked about in yesterdays post (being slightly addicted to the internet) I'm going to make more effort this week to get back into reading. I found an old copy of "The Day of the Triffids" (in the classic orange and white Penguin book design, yay) hiding away in my book shelf so I'm starting with that.
Here's to getting into bed just that little bit earlier every night and snuggling up with a good book before you sleep!
And while I'm at it, what are you reading at the moment? I'm up for recommendations too!
lovely pictures, i love your friends dress xx

yay for reading in bed!
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing better really, and I usually pair my book with a cup of (non caffeine) tea.
Right now, I'm reading How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie and Invisible by Paul Auster.
I really like both so far! :)
Love 'Day of the Triffids'. Great book to get you reading again. At the mo I am reading the UK film critic Mark Kermodes autobiography 'It's Only a Movie'.

Gorgeous post...great style!!!
ReplyDeleteat the moment im reading "Monsieur Ibrahim et les fleurs du coran" (in swedish) by E.E. Schmitt. so far so good! :)
ReplyDeleteOhh I just did a post on my infinite love for reading! I'm currently caught up in a book called 'La petite fille de monsieur Linh', it's a French novel about an old man and his granddaughter of who he's very protective over.
ReplyDeleteIf you haven't already, I definitely recommend reading 'The shadow of the wind' by Zafón.

Agree--the photos are very pretty!
ReplyDeleteI, too, need to get back into reading. I just finished Age of Innocence by Wharton--it was really awesome. This week, I'm starting The Maltese Falcon. I'm also reading Pattie Boyd's biography, but the writing isn't the best.
Oh man I used to watch the old movie Day of the Triffids. Hope you enjoy the book. I'd love to know how it is.
ReplyDeleteI just read Little Bee and it was amazing. I highly recommend it because its a wonderful and lovely story. And you just fall in love with the characters.
ReplyDeleteNow I am reading Looking for August, which I'm more than halfway done with, and I love this angsty/teenage novel. It's a fun read.

I have the SAME problem, I recommend turning off the computer and walking away as soon as you start feeling the internet itch. Book recommendations: Mrs. Dalloway, The Picture of Dorian Gray, The Awakening, The Tao of Pooh...

Redeeming love is awesome, just read it. A christian novel, it's great if you love a romance story. Defs recommend.
ReplyDeleteIs it interesting? The book title looks nice..I am currently reading "a year in ze merde" its a funny book about an englishman in Paris, its really cool to understand the difficulty to adapt to a foreign country but yet it keeps the humour :)
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean! It's like I'm excited to go to bed early, just so I can cuddle up with a book until I'm too sleepy to even turn the page :)
ReplyDeletei'm reading shanghai girls by lisa see :) very touching read. i also recommend a million pieces by james frey! it's a little wordy & difficult to digest at first but it gets spectacular afterwards :) enjoy your new-found love for reading! & yes, i need to get off the computer more often too :(
ReplyDeletecute dress, and specs ;)
ReplyDeletei'm reading "I Capture The Castle" at the moment. it is such an easy read, it felt like falling into a world (some worlds you have to dig into). Just read the first chapter -i swear you'll understand what i mean.
These are beautiful
ReplyDeleteNothing beats that feeling of snuggling up in bed with a good book and a hot chocolate
The last book I read was The Kite Runner, absolutely incredible I'd definitely recommend it
im reading the shopaholic series :D
