This post is for my friend Lisa in New Zealand.
She wrote to say she is looking for a good book and
remembered a post of mine a few months back and could not find it.
As always, I was delighted to hear from her and very happy to post again.
Here is a list of books suggested by readers who entered my first giveaway.
Wherever you may be in the world, I hope you find something here to
entertain and delight you this summer/winter :)
