Sunday Ramblings…

Jess from Gone With the Words sent me a link to this Ed Sheeran performance on Conan this week. I love his voice so much and his live performances are always perfect. I got to see him open for Snow Patrol last month and I can’t wait until he finally breaks out in America. He’s already huge in the UK winning the Brit Awards: British Breakthrough Act, British Solo Male Artist, British Single, British Album of the Year ~ source wikipedia

  2. I love Ed Sheeran now! All because of you ;) He is really good live, it's amazing what he can do with only his guitar. Not everyone can pull that off.

    Wow that is the spanish edition for Wicked Game?!! I LOVE IT!!! I'd buy it just because of that cover and read the english edition haha. I really want to read this series.

    Have a nice Sunday!!! :) xoxo

  4. I've got Of Poseidon on my upcoming "to-read-and-review" list, so I'm curious to hear what you think of it, Karen!

    Also, I really like Ed Sheeran as well! I think my favorite song of his is "Give Me Love." :)

  8. What a generous offer to give your unwanted books a new home. As you say postage, especially shipping, is sooooo expensive that just having had a bookish sort out myself I've had to take the decision to take my books to a charity shop instead of doing a giveaway as I had planned.
