Introduction My to read pile is threatening to take over my house (when I moved house recently one full box only covered authors A to B) and despite a book-buying ban imposed on me by my BFF it seems to keep on growing. I have no idea how that happens. Perhaps I am just a lost cause. I like coffee and pretty books and the seaside. I dislike brocolli and cold winter mornings and lies. I want to open my own bookshop, I can picture it quite clearly in my head and I wonder if this will always be a pipe dream. I think probably. I love to ski. This means I am comfortable hurling myself down slippery icy mountains at high(ish) speeds yet I hate running down a hill in case I can't stop. Go figure. Perhaps I am just a mass of contradictions. Place me on the sofa with a blanket and a book. & maybe a bowl of apple crumble and custard. I'll be happy.
