It’s my first time reading ‘The Pursuit of Love’. It’s so entertaining - even laugh-out-loud funny at times. The perfect holiday read.💜 #nancymitford #mustread #booklover #bookish #bookstagram #holidayread

I’m very excited that Eric Bana has been cast in the lead role of Aaron Falk in the upcoming movie of The Dry. It’s so important to me that the nature of Falk shines through, and Eric Bana is a wonderful Australian actor and an inspired choice. https://t.co/k99VBIgxPO
