It’s been a fun year – here are some of my favourite posts since the last blog birthday:

Book Review: The Upside of Unrequited by Becky Albertalli

My England vacation in October – posts on sightseeing, paper stores, and all things Harry Potter

That time I was in Creativity magazine

Making bunting with the We R Memory Keepers bunting board

Stationery Talk: Thoughtful Types

Check out the International Geek Girls Pen Pal Club

Book Review: Where Am I Now? by Mara Wilson

My top books of 2016

Book Review: Under Rose-Tainted Skies by Louise Gornall

In the last year, I also finished the Georgia Nicolson Readalong and helped start the Book Lover Postcard Swap!

I also know that last year didn’t have a Notebook & Pen Swap, but don’t worry, that’s coming very soon… 😉

And a special thanks to all of you fellow paper nerds, bloggers, publishers, and letter writers who make this so much fun!

    Happy blogoversary! I think you know all the great books I’ve read lately, but my faves are The Upside of Unrequited, Always and Forever, Lara Jean, and Noteworthy.

    Next up is The Names They Gave Us, which is my most anticipated read of 2017. I’m so nervous. =p

    Whee! Happy blogiversary!
    I had a pretty blah start to the year but I’m currently reading a great one (The Rome Affair, Karen Swan’s newest) and I also read Karma Brown’s upcoming book, In This Moment, which was fantastic.

    I’ve been reading Should Auld Aquaintance by Melanie Murray. It’s about Robbie Burns’ wife and her experiences being married to him.

    Aw, happy blogiversary!! I just read Goodbye Days a few weeks ago and loved it. It’s been a long time since I read a book in under 24 hours, but I definitely devoured that one.
