A bumper crop this month because I got a bit carried away at various points. There’s two Dahlia Lively books – because I realised that the new one was coming and I still hadn’t got the summer one even though I had the Christmas one pre-ordered. So I ordered the summer one and the pre-order arrived too. Then the A Carol and a Killing was on offer so I snaffled that. The Slowest Burn and Paladin’s Grace were my purchases at Main Character books, Paladin’s Strength was my purchase at The Broken Binding and the Elly Griffiths was a charity shop find on that same trip to Stratford-Upon-Avon*. And then there are the Persephones – there’s a new London branch and you can watch out for my post on that this time next week. There’s quite a little collection of them waiting to be read on the shelf, so I should really do something about that. On the bright side, I’ve already read the Rev Richard Coles so that’s off the pile but that’s it so far, but I’m sure I’ll make some progress this week – if nothing else I need to read some more new Christmas books before I can recommend any!
*I’m still not over how good As You Like It was. I may never be over it.
That’s a lovely haul. I really enjoyed the last Dahlia story set in the West End.
I did too. I’m intrigued to read the yacht one because it seems like a bit of a departure but also because I do like a closed group mystery
