The most beautiful book post arrived this morning!! Thank you @panda_lane #TheAbsoluteBook
I treated myself to the hardcover of Wundersmith after my hardcover of Hollowpox arrived and I discovered that they're WORKS OF ART.
I loved this book, it was so powerful! The sequel has gone right on my wishlist.

This was a lovely relaxing little book to read over Christmas. I wish there'd been a little more about the dresses, but it was still really relaxing!
One of my very favourite places to be.
