A really busy week in reading. Lots of books read – and lots of different genres. The audiobook re-listen is now deep into Albert Campion, which is fun. And we’re nearly at the end of October which means all the usual things for the blog this week.

Tis the Damn Season by Kimi Freeman*
Death of a Ghost by Margery Allingham
Mystery in Provence by Vivian Conroy
A Christmas to Remember by Beverly Jenkins

One pre-order arrived but that was it.
Bonus photo: this is the curtain call (they said we could film and photograph it) at the Coliseum on Wednesday for the final night of the ENO’s production of Gilbert and Sullivan’s Iolanthe. My first Gilbert and Sullivan and it was really good and much funnier than I expected – not least because someone from my favourite comedy theatre company was in it!
