Words leave imprints in your mind like footprints in the sand...
beach reading
starry skies to read under
reading in nature

Bookworms raise your glasses…

…well your mug in this case for a gorgeous mug with your name on it is to be found in Marks and Sparks. It’s been doing the rounds on social media but this Marks and Spencers mug just has to feature on the BookTrail website for the joy it’s bringing to so many bookworms including me. Never has coffee tasted so good. And when you drink as much as I do when reading, then it’s nice to have a friend like this by your side…

Why is the mug so good? Well it’s a nice surprise to find a mug in a store when you don’t expect it. It’s sold in bookshops or has any links to a novel just published. No, some bright spark at Marks and Spencer has decided that this mug should be made. (And I’d like to think he or she is a secret bookworm who is responsible for getting this mug out to the bookworm masses – Sir or Madam we salute you)

There are other mugs in the series which can also aptly be bought for bookworms. They describe how we feel when reading….daydreaming and a bit of a sleephead when we’re transported to various worlds….

So, not only is this bookworm mug very special,it seems that this mysterious Marks and Spencers person is a secret book fan who gets us, who is one of us and again, we salute you…

After selecting the bookworm mug which would come home to help me read …be my comfort holding coffee ready on a cold autumn evening, be my heated friend to hold in my hands when I read a chilly Jo Nesbo and be my sturdy helper when reading outdoors and it gets a bit windy – a book mug bookmark!

I took mine outdoors for an afternoon of reading..

Both orange and set in China!

Both orange and both set in China. Sometimes things come together that makes the reading experience all that more magical…

So, where to keep this special friend once bought home from the Mugs for bookworms and Spencer store:
