Ellie Jacobson has been having fun with her books and spelling her name with 5 titles in her possession. What a great idea Ellie, and I thought I’d give it a go. See the link below about Ellie’s prompt.

I am surrounded by books in my house. I sometimes have to move a pile of them off the settee in the lounge to enable me to sit down. I actually knew a family who lived near me in the 1960s called the Clutterbuck’s — well that’s our house, Clutter-books.

Only last week my wife and I attended a Sci-fi and Fantasy event and came away with two bought books and three we won in a raffle. Where to put them is the problem.

Anyway, it didn’t take too long to find five books I love which spell my name. Oddly enough, they were located in bookcases around the house, easy to find, and not lying on the floor, stairs or on comfy chairs.
