DISCLAIMER:
I was in Europe when the plagiarism scandal with Kristi of The Story Siren and the 4 bloggers she got her content from went viral, and I am only just finding out about this now (hours after this IMM went live). This will be my final IMM, as I will join in on Showcase Sunday at Books, Biscuits, and Tea next time. :) If you're wondering what scandal I'm referring to, feel free to check out this post from Grit & Glamour for a full explanation.

I'm so sad you are scared about Flirting in Italian now, but seriously, Jana, I fully expect to hear from you when you've finished reading this one. I cannot believe it's rated so well on GR right now. :(
ReplyDeleteAlso, E is on vacay, but thanks for the shout outs to her and us and we're so glad you're back! :) xoxo
Hooray for another of your vlogs, I'd missed them, hun! I'm so glad you're ok, I hope you're looking after yourself and that you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteAnd I started doing vlogs and now I know how much hassle they are to record over and over again, ha!
Awww, I hope you feel better soon! Where have you been (in Europe)?
ReplyDeleteI ADORE Sophie Kinsella and I've read the whole series a few years ago - it's fantastic!
Erm... can I just say how much I love your whole book haul?! :D xxx
Hi! Thanks so much for the shout out! I was so happy my books could find a home with you. Yes, we will be moving and downsizing so I think I will be ready with another list soon. :)
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great vacation despite your setbacks. Boo to being sick on vacation. I mean, couldn't our bodies have better timing?
I am so glad to have your face back in my reader. Lovely to see you as always & good luck with all of your reading!
