I am Lizzie, and I am addicted to reading books, it is my whole life! I always have several books on the go, as well as thoughts about previous books going round in my head. So a place to record my thoughts about books seemed a good idea.

I am excited to read this, as I loved Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell and missed their world when I finished the book so I am hoping this is more of the same. I'm not such a fan of short stories, though, and this book is short stories. Part of the delight of the Strange & Norrell book was the enormity of it, it was such a huge book that it felt like it was a treasure and something you could let yourself be completely absorbed by, so it's hard to feel the same excitement for short stories. I'm intrigued by the cover though, it looks like bindweed, and I wonder what this is meant to signify. Read the full review
