Book Reviews of Handfast: Scottish Poems For Weddings And Affirmations
Book Review: pretty book
Summary: 4 Stars
I was looking for a reading for my wedding. There were several nice pieces, but nothing that was perfect. Still, I enjoyed reading this book, and it's a pretty little thing to display at home. I will probably pick it up from time to time and read my favorites, which can be marked with a pretty blue satin ribbon which is part of the book.
