Sunday Surfing 16/11/14

By Lucybirdbooks @lucybirdbooks

Sunday Surfing is my weekly feature (inspired by Chrisbookarama‘s Friday Bookish Buzz, which is one of my favourite features) where I share my favourite links from during the week, about books and blogging. Plus a little about what’s happened on the blog this week.

Let’s get started.

Around the web this week

Places Book Lovers Should Visit

200 Years of Jan Austen Cover Designs

Caitlin Moran’s ‘How to Build a Girl’ is Being Made into a Film. I’m yet to read the book but this will bring it up my wishlist.

Amazon Revealed Their 100 Best Books of 2014

The Amazon-Hachette War is Over

Julia Donaldson has Sold £10m Worth of Books Every Year For the Past Five Years

Books Which Have Changed People’s Lives

Liverpool’s Library Closure Plans Have Been Dropped

Waterstone’s Released Their ‘Book of the Year’ Shortlist. The only one I’ve read is Everyday Sexism, which I really didn’t think is worth the hype (and I can’t find my review of….)

And watch the video of the ‘book’ which makes water safe to drink

And on the blog this week…
