My Library Of Books To Read Before Buying Anything Else!
Read here for why I am doing this experiment!
This collection of unread books has been built up over years and years… thus the somewhat odd smattering of romance, business and self help!
Please don’t take this list as book recommendations. I’ll keep those to my yearly lists you can find here.
I will cross them out as they are read. I will also cross them out if I read a fair whack of them + decide to not continue. I won’t force myself to finish books I don’t enjoy, as per Austin Kleon’s excellent book rules.

Then I tried my hand at the butterfly cake found in Lindy Smith's Celebrate with a Cake. I was freer this time and put a few original touches to it, but could not have done it without
