What a great idea pairing a book with chocolate. They do have some pretty wrapping.

Just go to an independent bookstore to buy the book. Have a serendipitous experience and keep your money in local circulation. Mr. Bezos doesnβt need your money.

I didn't know that you'd written your thesis on Wolf Hall, Ruth. This is one of my favourite books, too, and I wonder what perspective your worked from: the literary or the historic? I would love to know. I also love the idea of pairing together books and chocolate, especially in these days of excessive gadgets and technology xox

Chocolate-book style is now my dream job. Or maybe a specialist tea sommelier, where you give book-tea pairings. Let me know if you see an opening like that.

OMG! I've been giving books for years. I've never thought of adding a fancy chocolate bar. This is now my official policy.
