Digit-al Dozen DOES Book Week - The Best-Selling Books of 2012

Hi Goddesses



And so, thankfully, Book Week draws to an end.   Today's mani is an idea I had quite early on in my planning cycle, and I’m actually quite pleased with how it turned out.




When I was struggling for ideas, I wondered whether anything would spark if I Googled the Top 100 Books of All Time, but as I was scrolling I clicked instead on the Top 100 Best Selling Books of 2012 …. And here we are :)



Above is a collage of some of the books they represent, and below is what they are – 

Thumb – The Casual Vacancy by JK Rowling
Index – 50 Shades of Grey
Middle – Fire and Ice, for Game of Thrones, A Song of Ice and Fire
Ring – Effie Trinket mani for Hunger Games
Pinkie – Wimpy Kid!




Excitingly, Wimpy Kid was good enough for Beth to guess without any clues :)





If I’m honest, although I’m a big reader, I haven’t read any of those 5 books lol.  The Shades of Grey stuff just doesn’t interest me, and I haven’t even watched The Hunger Games film yet, though obviously I own some of the polishes haha.  




Game of Thrones also doesn’t float my boat, but when Beth has read them, the Wimpy Kid books do look cool.



I am so glad to have Book Week out the way!  Doing this and Dexter Week back to back has been brutal – lesson learned!  Here’s to a weekend of catching up and writing :)


Enjoy xx
