Weekly Obsession: The Vintage Guide to Love and Romance


This week I have been completely obsessed with The Vintage Guide to Love and Romance.
I won this particular book in a giveaway hosted by the lovely @KirstyBooks (Kirsty Greenwood) and she sent it to me a few weeks ago.
I know that book mail from abroad usually takes about 2 weeks to arrive.
I knew the book would be in my mail box at some point this week, so I checked and impatiently waited every day and today IT FINALLY ARRIVED!!! :D
I AM SO HAPPY!

The book's official publishing date is April 9th 2015


Jessica Beam is a girl who knows how to party. Only lately she's been forgetting to turn up for work on time. Or in clean clothes. Down on her luck, out of a job and homeless, Jess seeks the help of her long-lost grandmother.
Things aren't going well for Matilda Beam, either. Her 1950s Good Woman guide books are out of print, her mortgage repayments are staggering and her granddaughter wears neon Wonderbras.
When a lifeline from a London publisher arrives, the pair have an opportunity to secure the roof over their heads - by invigorating the Good Woman guides and transforming modern, rebellious Jess into a demure vintage lady.
The true test of their make-over will be to capture the heart of notorious London playboy Leo Frost and prove that Matilda's guides still work. It's going to take commitment, nerves of steel and one seriously pointy bra to pull this off . . .


What about me?
The book looks absolutely gorgeous. Just look at the beautiful cover!
And even more amazing.............IT'S SIGNED!!!!! :D


I am incredibly excited to start reading it and it's the first one I'll start reading once my book-reading ban is over!
I can promise you there'll be a review of this one up the second I finish it!

I'm an 'The Book Depository' affiliate and you can get the book here
