∞ Bookish Bucket List @ Sarah Says Read

All you have to do is leave a comment below answering the following:
What is one bookish thing you want to do before you die? OR what is one thing you want to do before you die that was inspired by a book you read?

My answer: One bookish thing I want to do before I die is do an Austen's tour of Hampshire and Bath. I want to see the places mentioned in her books and the ones that inspired her stories. I still need to read the rest of her books first though.
One other thing I want to do is visit Platform 9 3/4 on King's Cross station. It's the next best thing, since Hogwarts is out of the question...

And like many others here, I would also love to one day attend a book convention/festival.

∞ Pairathon @ Book Pairing

I want to see what you’re out there reading and drinking or eating during Bout of Books. I’m nosy. But I also think that books and wine/food/beer are better when enjoyed together. So let’s share?

I'm eating chocolate filled cookies and drinking iced tea while reading The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. Only two cookies cause I'm dieting :(
