One last fun post before School starts; I do have book reviews scheduled – honest!
I was looking at my header images on the blog, and wondering if I should update them… Obviously, they’re cut down from larger photos to fit. I have six current ones, which are randomised to appear with each refresh of my home page.
This was my original that I used all the way from the moment I moved my blog from Blogger to WP. Moody in black and white, each of the books in this photo got five stars from me.
Next I added my Folio Society collection of Andrew Lang’s Fairy Books – the full rainbow. I really ought to retake this photo. It’s even more blurry when enlarged on the header.
Next came my Beryl Bainbridge collection, added for my first BBRW in 2012.
In 2020 I added one for my first Paul Auster Reading Week, which gives me the opportunity to re-plug the forthcoming second Auster Reading Week from 3-10 Feb. I should update this photo too, as I can add Baumgartner to my collection.
And finally, the header I added after my first Nordic FINDS month in Jan 2022 – all the books and films I read and watched for it.
I used to have one more, with one of my book poems in – stacks of books whose titles read together could be a poem. But it cropped the ends off so I deleted it. I’m happy staying with these five for now! I hope you’ve enjoyed this diversion.
