Loved this so much! I also have two copies of Midnight Chicken, in the end the beautiful illustrations were too much to resist once I saw how beautiful Ella’s second book was. And I don’t think there’s ever such a thing as having a ‘book problem’, things that can bring so much joy and comfort could never be a problem (surely!?) - maybe only to people who just don’t ‘get it’?! But we all have hobbies/interests that some will never ‘get’, book related or otherwise.

What a joy this was to read, Diem. I adore Ella’s books and something tells me I need to find Ruby’s book as this is now the second time I have read about it in a matter of moments. And I really must indulge in a Nigel Slater book. Thank you for sharing. ☺️

Oh I have a few of the ones you’ve mentioned but will add an everlasting meal to my next book buy. Domestic writing is my favourite kind of writing too. I love it in cookbooks & especially in blogs, give me your meal pan or a run down of recipes you’re dreaming of trying & I’m hooked!

Do you have Ella’s A Year Of Miracles? It’s just as beautiful as midnight chicken. What about Breadsong by Kitty Tait? And Ammu by Asma khan is a beautiful read too.

Ohhhh. I'm really trying not to buy more books. You're very persuasive.
