WELCOME TO
The ‘Bookmark This’ Blog
Read about my favourite books, teaching, reading for pleasure and other things that interest me, like Icelandic traditions and honesty boxes in the Scottish Highlands. Be warned, I have been known to ramble.

Story props and small shops!
Showing some small business love for two UK based shops - Babi Pur and Conscious Craft. No, this isn't an ad or sponsored, just two companies that I love and a bit of inspiration for making up a book gift set with story props


Sand, sea and some book suggestions
After weeks of the most unScottish weather (it’s been consecutive weeks of blue sky sunshine!), the rain has returned. My garden is happy about this. I just hope this is not now the rain back for the rest of summer! (Never bloody happy!) As I try to remain optimistic that we’ve not just experienced summer for the year, I’ve decided to do a wee blog post on some of my favourite Scottish locations to visit in the sun (and rain, to be honest they’re all year round loveliness) and also recommend some sunshiney beachy themed books.

Blog-Block & Back to Basics
Life is busy. My brain is busy. Website traffic is not busy. Going back to basics with some book recommendations. I hope you enjoy!
