hello olympe and congrats again to your anniversary. dont think it is a surprise that it became a book. we are all crazy about them, more so, as we are supposed to read all things digital, the real book made of paper etc becomes even more precious!
ReplyDeletei hope you will have many comments on this giveaway and i just will go ahead and write the first.
i read bodanis' book and its so marvellous. so i think i might try for the 400 years of fashion...
btw, its is really hard at the moment to find enough time posting new entries to the leyland manor diary. but i try to write very soon!

Hello Emmeline! I remembered that you already had Passionate Minds and that is why I made sure there was another option. Looking forward to your next diary post.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!! and congrats on the recent Masters completion... I was a little behind on my blog reading but sure am glad I got caught up!
ReplyDeleteI have a long list of "novels" to read so I better try for the 400 Years of Fashion :)
Thank you! I have far too many books on my list as well, but I agree that it tends to be easier to get through the costume ones quickly.
