I gave up on the Elizabeth Jane Howard this week. I’ve been hanging in there trying to plough through because I love the Cazalets so much, then my Mum said I didn’t have to keep reading it if I wasn’t enjoying it – and that if she was trying to read something she wasn’t enjoying, I would be the first person to tell her to give up and move on so she was returning the favour for me. I have a great mum.

I bought six books on Friday. It was very naughty of me, but I don’t regret it at all. I’ll try and restrain myself this week though.
Verity Reads Books (lots of them) 
Well done for giving up on the EJH. I’m sure she would have given you the same advice. It does not detract from your love of the Cazalets.. Thanks for the compliment too.
