23.01.2022 New in stock today! Ed Sheeran: A Visual Journey. "Ed Sheeran has teamed up with his childhood friend, visual artist Phillip Butah, to create a truly original book telling the personal stories behind his music."... #edsheeran #music #musician #songwriter #songwriting #photographs #photos #illustrations #hardback #hardcover #shoplithgow

23.01.2022 Here is a book club with a difference: "What happens when you create a real-life rah-rah brotherhood of men fully committed to reading lusty fictionand then actually start talking about it?"

23.01.2022 And here is something that you absolutely do not need this morning, but it is interesting nonetheless. Stephanie Meyer uses the word "murmur" almost 350 times in her 5 Twilight books. That seems somewhat excessive. Here they all are, ranked from worst to best (although I am unsure how you can have the best "murmur!) :)

23.01.2022 Stunning! Thats all we can say about this beautiful book, H.M. Bark Endeavour Not only is this a book about Cooks voyage, it also contains dozens of illustrated plans of the ships architecture and construction, the deck plan, rigging, sails, armament, boats, cables, anchors and accommodation - all drawn by the author himself. Grab it quickly - it will not last long.... #captaincook #endeavour #australianhistory #charts #journals #recreation #logs #architecture #plans #hardback #shoplithgow

21.01.2022 We all love The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Dont we? Here are some cool crafty activities for those with little ones at home (or for those who just like paper crafts...) Have a great Monday!

21.01.2022 JUST IN! "Portlands Past: Insight to those lost in the Cement Works 1901-1993." Put together by Portland Tidy Towns in 2016.... #localhistory #portlandhistory #cementworks #portlandtidytowns #shoplithgow

21.01.2022 Good morning, readers! It is Friday - so lets have a little bit of fun. Words are very important to us but the English language has a number of words that sound rather naughty but are, in fact, perfectly fine. Let me start: Masticate... Show us what you got!!

21.01.2022 "Although the book is lengthy at over four hundred pages..." Read that in a review this morning. Nearly spat my coffee across the room. 400 pages? Lengthy? So I got to wondering: what do you think is the perfect length for a book in your favourite genre?

21.01.2022 #disneymustpay Pay the man the royalties that he deserves. Buying a company's assets and ignoring the liabilities that come with it is criminal. Do the right thing, Disney. Pay up!... https://www.sfwa.org/2020/11/18/disney-must-pay/

20.01.2022 Very happy to see this from Pan Macmillan Australia.

20.01.2022 Local history or Australian history? Whats your favourite? We have some terrific history books from Rob Mundle...and a fantastic book on our world famous Zig Zag Railway.
