Dorian Gray is in! And I fully embraced the arsenic green that Victorians used to love in their books. It somehow represents the poisoning and corruption of the Dorian Gray story very nicely.

“[I have learned] to read with diligence; not to rest satisfied with a light and superficial knowledge, nor quickly to assent to things commonly spoken of.”

You know when you punch out the cardboard in a boardgame and there's extra bits. Seems like a waste to use them

Two beautiful coffee table books that have seen better days. Rescued just before the rain soaked the book exchange shelf in the street. I've got good plans for these

Just a reminder, this is the last Royal Garden left. This gorgeous fabric has been completely used up and the random warehouse in Auckland that stocked it has permanent closed. Very sad I didn't buy more.

Look at the shoulders on her

Bound a copy of Down and Out in Paris by Orwell. The design was heavily inspired by the old NRF paperbacks from France; seemed fitting for the topic and the period.
