It doesn't happen to me that often really... finding a book that I never want to end. But I have, which is why I want to share it...
Of Bees And Mist is a beautiful adult fairy tale. I love that, when you can't wait to go to bed so you can keep reading. I'm not going to tell you the story... I'm just going to hope that you find out for yourself.
'A beautifully crafted adult fairy tale of love, loss and loyalty that is at once witty, magical and moving.'
The blurb at the back by She Magazine reads.... 'Put life on hold while you let it work its magic'....
I have, and I will, savouring every moment til I've finished it....!
Have a good week xx
Oh you have peaked my interest. I am reading A Life in Nature about Beatrix Potter. Perhaps when I finished I shall take your advice about Bees and Mist. It has such a lovely title.

I am also reading Beatrix Potter at the moment, and have just placed about Bees and Mist on my next hit list. Sounds enchanting.
Cant wait.

Hello Nicky,
merci de nous donner envie de lire ce livre. I pre-order it on the website I use to buy my books in English languages.
I don't know if you read books in French language but if, you could read "L"arche de Noël et autres contes" from Romain Sardou. It's enchanting short stories for adults and children (pocket edition)These stories take place ... in England.
Have a nice day !

Ooooh! I am half way through the Twilight series and am a little worried about how I will fill the Vampire shaped gap it will leave when I finish, this might just do it x
