I saw that Soon Remembered Tales was starting a new "currently" feature to "break up the book talk" and thought it was such a neat idea that I'm going to give it a go! I think I'm going to do this feature every 2 weeks instead of weekly/monthly and it will just be what I'm currently doing!

Watching: Films! I seem to be in a really film mood at the minute, I even got myself a netflix account but so far it has really disappointed me and nothing I want to watch is on there. This week I've been watching: The Labyrinth  Aladdin, Pride & Prejudice,  Breaking Dawn 1&2, Pineapple Express, Austin Powers; International Man Of Mystery, and Max & Mary. I watched this last one the other night on Film4 and absolutely loved it! It's stop motion animation and tells the story of two pen pals, one a forty something overweight New Yorker named Max, and one a little Australian girl named Mary and the letters they send throughout their lives. Something so different to what I expected, a really lovely film!

Listening To: Patsy Cline, Dusty Springfield, Death Cab For Cutie, Fleetwood Mac, David Bowie, and of course Christmas Songs!

Thinking About: University. I've just handed in the first draft of my Dissertation and couldn't be more relieved! now if only I didn't have this 90 page script to write...

Loving: Winter! My very favourite season, the time of year all of the best things happen in! Plus hats and scarf's! ❅ ❄ ❆

Reading: To The Lighthouse - Virginia Woolf, Gifted Hands - Kenneth Fenter, No Country for Old Men - Cormac McCarthy.

Making Me Happy: Christmas! I have now officially wrapped all of my presents and can't wait to give them to people! Christmas makes me so happy and I'm feeling really festive already this year...which may have something to do with us having our tree up in the second last week of November!

Blog Hop 12-18th

With Autumn upon us and Halloween drawing near, what books remind you of fall? What ones do you enjoy reading that are about autumn?

First off, let me just say that I'm a total wuss and scare really easily, I can't watch horror films without having trouble sleeping for about a week and I own one book that is considered a horror novel; Carrie (I know, I know...) So I think that says for me that even though Halloween is creeping ever closer, and I adore Halloween, that the one type of book I'm not reading is Horror. At this time of year I tend to read quite a lot because the atmosphere is so prefect; dark and cold outside with perhaps heavy rain hammering down on the roof, Candles lit and a record playing in the background; it's just perfect to crack open a book in that place. The most autumnal novel I own is I think Wuthering Heights, not because it's set in that season, but because there's something about that kind of huge love story that's prefect for this time of year. I also love Shakespeare at this time of the year for the same reasons. This time last year I had just started the Song Of Ice And Fire series so I was really into that and I think it would be nice to start another series this winter, I'm just hopeless with series because I don't read them too often, so if any of you have any recommendations, please leave them below.
