About Me
New to Digital Scrapbooking, just started in 2019, want to make a record of family stories before my mother passes away. My dad died in 2016. I currently live in Canada but was born and raised in New Zealand, and emigrated to Canada upon marrying my Canadian spouse. Home Country - lets see - New Zealand or Canada? Which to choose? Most of my photos will be from NZ, but any pics of my son will be from Canada. MY IP Address will say that I am in Canada which is fine. My mother and sister are still back in NZ so I will make my home country as NZ for now. For Facebook, I dont check it every day - I am not addicted to FB, and I use a different name for privacy. My image is myself as a child - aged about 2 or 3 years old

The All Souls Trilogy by Deborah Harkness.
Book 1 - A Discovery of Witches (2011)
Book 2 - Shadow of Night (2012)
Book 3 - The Book of Life (2014)
An excellent trilogy about magic, witches, witchcraft, vampires and daemons if you are into that genre. I'm not a vampire lover, but the main vampire in this trilogy still acts like a human rather than as a vampire, which I think is why he grew on me.
The main reason why I began reading this series was due to the Ashmolean 782 antiquarian book mentioned in the first volume. The main female character, Diana, discovered this book in the Bodleian Library at Oxford. It is an ancient book, and I love old books and reading about old books. As Helene Hanff once described it - I have an antiquarian taste in books.
Anyway, the story pertaining to the Ashmolean manuscript drew me in, and the characters kept me there, as did the very well researched history of the second book. The third book just wrapped everything up very nicely, including solving the mystery of the Ashmolean 782 manuscript.
