Being such a grey and cold day yesterday - the coldest day so far this year according to the weather man last night on tv - it was the perfect opportunity to make a cup of hot green tea to sip while finishing off a book that was started at the beginning of the week.
I really enjoyed this book and best of all there was a surprise twist which I was not expecting nor would have ever guessed. In fact I re-read one section to make sure it was what I had read. Usually when reading a book or watching a movie I am forming some sort of ideas as to how it may end but not in this case. If anyone has read this book they will know what I am referring to and if you have not then it is worth a read.
I have not read any other books by this author but her name has been added to my future reading list. She is an Australian author.
Time now to head over to Cheryll's blog to see what was happening last night in other sewing rooms.
Back soon and in the meantime
Happy sewing all

Very autumny - very rich & warm.
I seem to have fallen out of reading - too much sewing and not enough time.
I really like her books They all seem to have that twist and keep you guessing right up to the end

It was a bleak day, wasn't it. Reading your book was the ideal way to spend your time. I love your fabric selection;
You have me intrigued about the book, and an afternoon sitting by the fire today reading a book sounds like a plan, although do have a sewing project I need to get done today. Will have to see how much time I get after church.
A lovely selection of fabrics for your autumn themed bloghop. I'll have to look out for that book - I've read several others of hers and enjoyed them a lot.
