    Friday's arrival welcomes a new edition of This & Friday's arrival welcomes a new edition of This & That to the blog and this week ➡️ Quite a few British finds this week, from a return of a favorite series after a two-year hiatus, another female-led series is back, and a new book about the beloved Queen Elizabeth II. Also, books: one tells the true story of the most curious art theft, another is a novel by a Nobel Prize-winning author, and then we have a book for bibliophiles that just looks ideal for winter reading. We cannot forget the Francophile finds – home and style beauties, and two locations for a British restful getaway have been found. Still, there is more!
